Logan Square is Philadelphia's museum district on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, with the Franklin Institute, the Barnes Foundation and the Philadelphia Museum of Art all within walking distance. The hotels near it run from a 9.0-rated three-star Sheraton to the five-star Four Seasons inside the LEED Platinum Comcast Technology Center tower, ordered here by star rating and guest score.
What to expect from Logan Square hotels
Logan Square is on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, below the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and its hotels fill up with museum-goers, people at events at the Franklin Institute, and overflow from the Pennsylvania Convention Center at 1101 Arch Street.
It's an upscale area, so expect to pay more here than at hotels farther from the Parkway. Four of the five hotels here are four or five stars, and the one three-star has a 9.0 guest score. If you're driving, Philadelphia's 22.5% parking tax adds up. Four of the hotels are a 5- to 9-minute walk from 15th St/City Hall, where the L (Market-Frankford Line), the B (Broad Street Line) and the T trolleys meet; the Sheraton is 5 minutes from Race-Vine on the B.

Attractions and events near Logan Square hotels
The Philadelphia Museum of Art, at the top of the Parkway, is the landmark everyone knows. Closer in, the Barnes Foundation on the Parkway and the Franklin Institute on North 20th Street draw the biggest crowds.
Reading Terminal Market at 1136 Arch Street is open daily from 8 am to 6 pm and close enough for breakfast or lunch. The Pennsylvania Convention Center at 1101 Arch Street keeps the Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown and the Kimpton Hotel Palomar busy, since both are within walking distance of it.
The PHS Philadelphia Flower Show returns to the Pennsylvania Convention Center from March 13 to 21, 2027, so expect Logan Square hotels to fill up that week.
