"When it opened in early 2019, Lokal Fishtown was only the neighborhood’s second hotel. Shocking, considering the neighborhood continues to be one of the city’s buzziest places to eat, drink, shop, and hear live music. One of four locations in the homegrown brand’s collection of “invisible service” hotels—meaning there’s no front desk or concierge. This outpost was built by local, Philadelphia makers—everything from the stylish spaces, to plants from 2nd Street greenery shop Stump, to custom beds made by neighborhood furniture maker Farmhaus Modern, to each framed artwork, block-printed pillowcase, and ceramic mug. This all adds up to a beautiful, cohesive space that communicates the vibe of the neighborhood before you ever leave the room." - Regan Stephens, Katie James Watkinson
