Getting around Philadelphia from Hilton hotels
Most of the Center City Hiltons are a short walk from a SEPTA Metro stop. The Motto and The Logan are about nine minutes from 15th St/City Hall, where the L (Market-Frankford Line), the B (Broad Street Line) and the T trolleys meet. The Canopy, Hilton Garden Inn and Home2 Suites are three to five minutes from 13th St on the L. A single Metro trip costs $2.90, and a One Day Convenience Pass is $7.50.
SEPTA's Airport Line runs from the airport terminals to Center City stations including Suburban Station and Jefferson Station, every 30 minutes on weekdays. It's $8.75 with a SEPTA Key card or contactless payment, or $11.00 bought on board. A taxi from the airport to Center City is a flat $32 for one passenger, plus $1 for each extra passenger.
In University City, the Inn at Penn is seven minutes from 34th St and the Homewood Suites is seven minutes from 40th St, both on the L and a few stops from Center City. The Hilton at Penn's Landing is nine minutes from 2nd St on the L.
