Valet Parking is $38, but garage parking is abundant in Philly. Last time I was there, I parked in a city garage under JFK Plaza exactly caty-corner to the hotel (entrance is on Arch btwn 16 and 17) and it was $20 a night.
Fab property, easily my favourite spg in Philadelphia. Very good French restaurant off lobby. Great wine selection. A W for grownups, which is how I also view the SLS Beverly Hills. No suite as plat, but very gracious reception and very large king room.
