Have you been to Philadelphia lately? If not, now might be a good time to plan a visit to this historic American city, because the Sheraton Society Hill Hotel is one of this week's participating Starpicks properties. As the saying goes, Philly's more fun when you sleep over, and it's definitely more fun when you're enjoying last-minute rates of at least 20% off regular rates for stays during the next two weekends. The Sheraton Society Hill is located close to some of this city's most famous attractions, such as Independence Hall and the famously cracked Liberty Bell, which are just four blocks from the hotel. If you've already seen these American classics, check out the nearby Independence Seaport Museum. This modern facility is dedicated to the ships and sailors who plied the Delaware and Schuylkill rivers over the years, and its permanent collection includes nautical memorabilia of all kinds as well as interactive exhibits that allow visitors to try to unload cargo from a ship using a miniature Kocks crane, weld and rivet a ship's hull, or just enjoy a virtual sail down the river. The Art of the Boat, a temporary exhibit of vintage yachting photographs, includes 40 platinum palladium prints of yachting, powerboat, racing, and leisure boating images that are sure to stir the heart of any aspiring sailor. When evening rolls around, guests at the Sheraton Society Hill can enjoy a bite to eat at the Courtyard restaurant followed by a beer at the Wooden Nickel or Hadley's Bistro and reflect on just how nice it is to be in the City of Brotherly Love. New Starpicks properties are posted every Tuesday, so check the list for ideas and inspiration for your next getaway.
