Parking in Philadelphia Downtown?

Question

I will be staying in the Courtyard By Marriott Philadelphia Downtown,
21 North Juniper Street, Philadelphia, they charge $32+tax/day for their valet parking. Does anyone know if there's any place else to park, street or gargage, that would be more affordable? Thank you

We'll be there over president's day weekend.

Answer 1

Whoa! Ever thoght of using public transportation?? It's A LOT cheaper and easier. Parking/driving in most large cities is a real hassle and not worth the accompanied aggravation.

Answer 2

Off the top of my head, I can't think of what parking is available tin that area. Try looking up the Philadelphia Parking Authority online. It gives you all the locations and hours. I think you may be able to get a better rate if you get the 24 hour rates at some lots.

I can't believe what some places charge for you to park, after you've already shelled out a few hundred for the frekaing room!

Answer 3

you'd be more suitable constructive off searching a storage and parking for the day (will be like $20). there is an threat you'd be able to locate meters, yet you've gotten to do a variety of of driving round plus be on the hook to go back and keep feeding them. The Parking Authority is truly brutal about giving tickets (that are very severe IMO),

Answer 4

I wish you all the luck in the world on that one. Philly is a very heavy traffic area. Whenever we drive down, we have to get out of the car while who ever is driving rides around for about 20+ minutes looking for a place to park. That is why a lot of people use the train, taxi or bus service. It can be expensive, but keep you from getting a ticket if you park in the wrong place. They have no mercy.

Answer 5

Very tricky. I used drive everyday to Center City for work and got lucky at $8/day. That's at the Academy House at 15th & Locust, about 4 blocks away from your hotel. It's valet, but I would tip $1/day. You won't find better than that anywhere close.
