The Arco
Midtown Village, Philadelphia
Get the best of both worlds at The Arco, where historic charm and contemporary convenience go seamlessly hand in hand. Former home of the Printing Industries of Philadelphia, a classic red-brick exterior perfectly contrasts the charming collection of modern artwork inside. Take a moment to kick back beside the cozy fireplace in the lobby, or to refuel with a quick bite at one of the ground floor restaurants. Try Bud & Marilyn’s for classic American comfort food or Little Nonna’s for fresh Italian antipasti — you can’t go wrong with either. Refresh and rejuvenate in your bright, comfortable space, then step out to the vibrant streets of Midtown Village. Rich with LGBTQ+ history and bursting with lively bars and restaurants, South 13th Street’s entertainment scene calls you in to explore. Play the tourist with a walk to City Hall or soak up the sun in Rittenhouse Square before ending the night with a glass of wine at Bar Poulet.
