Society Hill Hotel

A gorgeous newly renovated place in a great location but I can't recommend until they get the soundproofing between rooms fixed. I had zero issues with road/city noise (expected for location!) but for me a hotel has one job to do: to create a safe space for guests to enjoy peace and privacy and this is not achieved here. The walls are uncomfortably thin. In fact I would go so far as to say that the connecting rooms (King rooms + bunkbed rooms ) should *never, ever* be rented to unrelated guests, they are so intimate it feels like you are sharing. Even in the non-adjoining rooms it's an issue. I would expect to hear loud TVs etc from neighbors, but here you can hear your neighbor making sounds as quiet as raising their blinds.😬 There's no front desk, just unlock with a code a la Airbnb. I like that in theory but I wonder if it puts a burden on the restaurant staff. During dinner we saw the chef working really hard to help a family with their room problems. She probably should have just been cooking. Also late at night, it's hard to feel great about the fact that you are living super close to multiple strangers with no front desk or security around, and when you hear people purposely talking to you through the walls, as we did, it feels creepy to know there is no security on site to intervene. To their credit, the staff did answer our texts promptly and kindly, & moved us, although we had to downgrade to a much smaller room as apparently all the Kings are the connecting type. They did refund the difference in room size/cost & gave us dinner. And we learned the non-adjoining type of rooms are also quite poor on soundproofing. Pity because the hotel is so cute, the location is unbeatable and the restaurant food and staff were enjoyable. I hope they can fix the issues with privacy and security.

We’ve been to the restaurant several times now. Each time the food and service has been excellent. Specialty drinks and pizzas were amazing. Great atmosphere in an awesome location. We’ll be regulars for sure and can’t wait to stay at the hotel in October.

The hotel and restaurant have been fully renovated and restored beautifully. Lovely menu in the first floor bar and restaurant. So happy this space is back. Congratulations. The staff are wonderful and knowledgeable. Highly recommended the Crab Cake sandwich and pizza.
