After my 8.5 hr flight from Amsterdam, I had a 3-hour layover in Philly, and another 5.5hr flight waiting for me to get back home to Vegas. I was beyond tired and just wanted to take a nap and stretch out my legs. I have used Minute Suites in both Dallas & Atlanta, so I knew what to expect. Ashley greeted me and quickly checked me in. She was very friendly, welcoming and told me to let her know if I needed anything during my stay. My room was quiet, clean and comfortable. Minute Suites are located inside the terminals and offer one-hour suite rentals. You can adjust your time as needed, but you still pay by the hour. All Minute Suite locations have different amenities. Some have blankets, pillows, refrigerated drinks and snacks in the rooms; while other locations have only the basics (daybed, tv, desk, chair, white noise, coat hangers). Some even offer showers at an additional surcharge. Sadly, I was unable to fall asleep due to the time difference and nerves about missing my connection flight home. But I did fully enjoy two hours of peace & quiet, and the ability to lay down and stretch out my legs. I recommend this Minute Suites if you have time between connections and want to get away from all of the noise, hustle and bustle that comes along with waiting at the gate. I'll definitely visit this Minute Suites again the next time I find myself in Philadelphia Recommended! read more

While the "airport pod" is a good concept, Minute Suites fails to deliver comfort and service levels capable of justifying their high pricing. For $65/hr. here, you get a glorified closet where you can turn the lights off. Unfortunately, everything else is pretty much the same as in the terminal: you lack control of the temperature (there is a thermostat in each suite, but your inputs cause nothing to happen), have to share a bathroom across the corridor with "gen-pop," and can recline on a worn-out, squeaky plastic couch held together by duct tape. I was hoping to get a nap in in here during a 6-hr. layover between a transatlantic and a domestic flight, but couldn't get comfortable in such a ramshackle, bare-minimum-of-effort environment. The sole benefit was perhaps the confirmation of my suspicions that this country is going downhill compared to the shining, ultramodern European airport I departed from! In my view, what would make this price point logical would be hotel-style amenities: the room can be small, but it should have an actual bed (even if just a twin), sheets, a WORKING thermostat, at least one complimentary water (making guests who are already forking over countless Benjamins pay $6 for a 500mL bottle shocked my conscience), and at least one private bathroom for those who've booked the suites. Without these perks, you might as well tough it out among the writhing masses outside. read more

A well needed respite. The room was 8x8 with a trundle bed and a little desk, TV, and chair. Individualized temperature control and electrical plug ins. The bed was a thick vinyl, (probably best), but no offer of a sheet or blanket for a three hour stay. There were thankfully two pillows. Really not trusting that they were clean. The bed was in serious need of replacement vinyl. See photo. We were sold on the shower, definitely needed that during a very long travel experience. After resting, they said the shower was not available because they didn't have any towels. At $65/hr you would think they would provide better customer service. The employees just don't try. Your experience is the least of their concerns. read more

Minute Suites - Bed. Needs repairs. - Airport Lounges Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

This is located in phl Airport and I stopped only cause my flight was delayed. The staff seem over worked. They have a wait but nowhere is there waitlist instructions. My capital one priority pass, dragon pass both didn't work. So had to use a third card priority pass benefit. The rooms are old, look ok but the bed leather had cracks. They need to upgrade the room look and my lights were flickering at dim. I barely got any rest as you still hear the announcements from airport. They don't have ear plugs. Overall I would not visit again as did not get the rest as I wanted read more

This place was an answer to my prayers. I had an over night flight that I expected to sleep on and it did not happen. By the time I got into PHL for my 3+ hour layover I thought I was going to pass out on the floor. I didn't want to destroy my back sleeping in a chair at the gate, and I didn't want to fall asleep and lose my ability to keep an eye on my luggage. I just needed a safe spot to lie down and close my eyes. What a relief to find this spot. Debra checked me in and she made the whole process so smooth. I told her what I needed and she made it happen. She offered me a nice clean blanket and walked me to my little suite. The suite was clean and I had the most incredible 2-hour power nap of my life. All airports should have this. So I am a little shocked at all of these negative reviews. It's obvious that the people who made these negative reviews were wanting hotel quality amenities. And this is not a hotel. Yes there was noise. These rooms are built in a small store space in the middle of the airport. Of course there's noise. If you want insulated thick walls and total quiet then you need a hotel room. And yes the room was small. Once again, it's a cubicle in the middle of the airport to sleep in. Not a hotel suite. So bottom line - if you need a safe clean spot to lay down, shut the lights off and close your eyes in between flights then this is the spot. Totally worth the money. If you need a hotel room... get a hotel room. read more

I missed my flight at PHL. It was late, and I'd been flying all day so I needed a good night's rest. I found Minute Suites online. With my discount, the online price was $135. I finally found the place, and the initial price I was given was $253. Once the discount was applied, it came to $189. I asked why there was such a big price difference between the online versus in-person booking price and showed the attendant the price on my phone. She made some additional discounts which brought it down to a more reasonable price. I was finally ready to get some sleep, but then I heard a drill and banging getting closer to the room. It got louder and louder, so I opened the door. There was a man in the room across from mine either putting furniture together or taking it apart. He said he'd be there another 2-3 hours. I gathered my things and requested a refund which I received. The entire exchange, from the initial price discrepancies to knowingly renting a room while the entire place would be undergoing construction throughout the night, seems unprofessional, inconsiderate, and not traveler-friendly. My 61-minute stay was a waste of my time. read more

The rooms are perfect for one or two people to chill while waiting for a flight. However, the air (A/C) that gets piped in smells slightly of jet exhaust! I hope I'm imagining things. They have snacks and such for purchase, but I wish they had a filtered water filling station. For a one hour complimentary season with Priority Pass, it'll do. Please note, if you leave your suite to grab a bite or use the restroom and you lock the door to secure your belongings, make sure you let the attendant know! Mine disappeared for 5-10 minutes and I almost missed my flight because I couldn't get my belongings out of the suite! Free or not, I'll pass the next time through PHI. read more

In A Nutshell: -The Minute Suites is a company that has locations at various U.S. airports. -In partnership w/ Priority Pass, you will have 1 hour of free access to a small, private room away from the business terminal. -This location in the Philly airport was a nice quiet oasis to catch a quick nap or to secure your baggage while you wander off to find something to eat. -The rooms have a T.V., many plugs to charge your devices, a small desk & a small couch. Overall, the staff is very friendly at this location & they keep the rooms very clean. read more

Priority pass gives a complementary 1 hour access, and then you can extend it if you would like! There were snacks and drink for purchase(no alcoholic drink as I could see). It's good if you would like to take a nap or getting away from other people but it's not the most comfortable thing to take a nap on. However it's pretty quiet and it has its own bathroom access different than the airport. read more

Really cool when you have a long layover, multiple flights. That little rest does the trick! Rooms were nice and clean. It got cold in the middle of my sleep. Better than burning up I guess. lol. read more

It's convenient. I literally exited my plane at B26 and it was at B 24. They checked my name (no ID,) and showed me my "room". I booked by phone and asked for a room where the facility had a shower. I assumed the person who answered the phone would just book me for that shower, but I guess you book it separately?? That was confusing. When I woke up in the morning, I wanted to take a shower and I didn't have one. Fortunately the one shower was available and for $21, it was mine. Now to the "room". The bed is a plastic-y couch. I wonder if they wiped it down or something from the previous person? They give you a blanket and pillow. Was the blanket washed? I don't know. Not a whole lot else. All for about $225. Did I mention it was convenient? read more

Minute Suites - Your plastic bed. - Airport Lounges Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I came here with my husband since we had two hours before our early flight. Since we hadn't gotten any sleep the whole night, we were looking forward to getting a quick nap. Unfortunately we never got to experience Minute Suites. When we arrived, there was a sign up that a suite was being cleaned and to call a number to get an attendant. Both me and my husband called the number several times and never got an answer. We even tried yelling out to see if someone would hear us, but to no avail. It was also a shame that the attendant would leave all the products they have sitting out unattended. Different people may take advantage of that. read more

Maybe convenient but not worth the price per hour. For the price of 2 hours you can have a nice hotel , near airport and breakfast . Also , make sure you ask for a pillow and blanket , or else it's not offered. It seems more appropriate for business. It's just enough for 1 person , unless you have a little one or baby. read more

Loved it! So relaxing and peaceful. The pillows were clean and soft. The wifi didn't work but we didn't even ask for help, we just took a lovely nap. It was quiet and the couch was comfortable. I would definitely return here read more

We called to book a room before we left took off for our flight and everything was set and ready to go. When we landed we got a call that our room had been booked due to their online program. All the other hotels in the area were fully booked and so it seemed like we might be out of luck. Jason was working the front desk and was so sweet and understanding as this was an error that was out of his hands. After talking with him and the manager we were able to get a room! The service was so great and Jason really did everything he could! read more

As a former employee (recently resigned), working behind the scenes, I can tell you the dismayed reviews DO NOT LIE: this is not a great place to work in that your fellow coworkers do not and are not enforced to pull their own weight. They are not moved by their start time to be to their post to begin work at the scheduled time and management has no issue with any of this because they are all best of friends. New people coming in get trained multiple different ways because even though the manager will train you- the other workers who have been there for a moment will say "idk why he taught y'all that way." If you are a newbie, YOU WILL BE LEFT. The veterans to that job will leave you by yourself for hours to roam around, flirt, hunt about free food--- Never accept anything free if you work there. Management could stand to enforce the rules because it really is a free for all. There were definitely a lot of LOUD personal conversations that were always happening because the workers there are more concerned with riding a clock for pay not working on the clock to get pay. As a place to stay and get away from the crowd at the airport--- I would say yes, do it but understand it's not the Marriott....more like Soul Plane read more

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING! Priority Pass, what a joke. It's a bed in a closet No food or snacks. This card is worthless read more

What a secret gem! Who knew one could sleep at an airport!? Well, anyone can who isn't a Club member of any airline has Minute Suites to call on fir a comfy place to relax (per hour). I was flying with my pregnant sister and her husband into PHL very early in the morning: too early to check in to our hotel and really needed a place for her to rest. So with some research, I found Minute Suites online l which is actually a chain, and just signed up for 4 hours' worth of rest time. With a couple clicks and a credit card, we were booked! Once we arrived at the designated time, the receptionist was very sweet and showed us to our suite. She even offered to wake us up if needed (didn't need it, but a good amenity if you're alone). And as a side note, there are some rest supplies, snacks and drinks out in the front as well as a treat basket in the room. Yoga mats are even available for rent! Nevertheless, the rooms are small yet cozy and above all, CLEAN. There's a tv/desk, and a couch that has a pull out level for your feet or a weary traveler friend (me) to also pass out on. All in all, a chill, safe cozy place to stay. If I'm ever in need of an airport sleep facility, I'm looking up Minute Suites! read more

Very loud. Staff has no consideration for guests trying to rest. Better off finding a chair in an empty gate.

Minute Suites - a couch and chair in a small room - Airport Lounges Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Booked 2 hours. First hour free with PP, second hour $34. Attendant was busy having a loud personal conversation in the office area. Very unprofessional. After waiting a few minutes at the front desk, I walked in to get her attention. Underwhelming room. Vinyl couch (maybe pulls out into a double-sized bed), no sheets, one decorative pillow, and one small pillow with pillowcase that looked clean. Kinda chilly and the thermostat was locked. Mini fridge with some non-alcoholic beverages for purchase. Attendant knocked on my door 20 minutes early, waking me up before my alarm. When leaving, I confirmed my actual ending time, and she insisted it was 20 minutes earlier. So I lost 20 minutes of my 120-minute booking. I'd return if I really needed a couple hours of sleep after a red-eye, but don't have high expectations. read more

Pretty cool concept they've got going on here with "Minute Suites." On a layover in PHL with nowhere to really turn, my Priority Pass granted me a complimentary hour-access to one of these suites as a pseudo-private lounge until my next flight. While pretty basic in its amenities, I gotta say that I dig this idea for a private space in a large airport to simply relax and unwind before your next flight. The Minute Suites feel like mini hotel rooms equipped with a couch-bed with pillow and comforter, work desk with outlets for work, and a monitor where you can hook up your laptop. Each room has individual temperature controls so you can feel more comfortable inside. For an extra fee, you can take a shower or order some refreshments for yourself. This isn't a typical lounge where snacks are complimentary unfortunately. I ended up staying in the suite for half an hour before getting up and walking around the airport again. They get the job done if you need a space to simply kick off those shoes for just a bit and take a nap. Be sure to set an alarm though so you don't end up missing your flight. read more

Our Priority Pass got us a free hour here at the Philadelphia airport. The pros: it gives you a quiet space to get some sleep (or close your eyes and doze at the very least), a TV, and a sense of privacy. Oh, and it's clean! You can look at the company's website and read about their cleaning process. Made me feel much better about lounging and snoozing on the "bed." The cons: it's incredibly expensive if you don't have Priority Pass, so unless you're electing to stay there for an extended layover and actually trying to get some sleep, it's probably not worth it for a shorter visit. I'm pretty sure you can pay like $25 daily fee to get into an airline club (think Delta Sky Lounge) and at least get food and private bathrooms. There were no trashcans in our room, nor is there a bathroom in the place, which meant I lost (no exaggeration) 10 minutes of my precious hourlong visit waiting in the public restrooms across the way. Finally, even if you pay the super high (non Priority Pass) hourly price, don't expect any perks in the room itself. You're looking at paying a hefty price for snacks and drinks. Not worth it. read more

Pretty Good Place for the Hour I travel frequently through PHL and this was my first time trying this place out. It's spacious enough for one person, but might be fairly tight for 2. The room also could've been a tad cleaner but having your First Hour FREE with Priority Pass is a hard offer to pass Shout Out to all the friendly Staff, including the AWESOME Front Desk Attendant, Shakera!!!! Thank You So Much & Aloha!!!! read more

I got a free hour here through Priority Pass--actually, almost two hours due to the nice attendant who took pity on my flight cancellation resulting in being at the airport for 10 hours. Highlights: -It's fast and easy to get in. They have different rooms named things like Independence and Philadelphia. -The rooms are pretty well-equipped. The Independence room has a daybed with available sheets, a desk, TV, mini fridge with non-alcoholic beverages (they carry an extra cost but at $2-3, are cheaper than airport convenience stores). -There is a sound switch on the wall that controls nature sounds--sort of like a babbling brook. I found this very relaxing. -Four outlets for you to charge all your gear while you rest up. I enjoyed my free Priority Pass time, which was great. That said, at $28/hour, there is so WAY I would sit here for my whole 10-hour wait time. That's more than four days in the Admirals Club, if you pay the daily entry rate. Note that the suites area doesn't have its own restrooms, so you have to go across the hall. For $28/hour, I'm gonna need them to have a little single stall with some nice lotion or something. All that said, my stay didn't cost a dime and it was a great retreat! read more

This was a great opportunity to use my Priority Pass-- a membership perk. I receive 1 hour free using it. I had a longer than expected wait time at PHL airport. The check-in process was smooth. My only compliant would be trying to use the computer to access the multimedia. For some reason, the interface was not very user friendly. In my efforts to not waste my time in here, I gave up and just took a short nap. This is a good accommodation at the airport. If you are okay with small spaces, then this is a great place for some quiet time or just sleep. read more

I would rate it lower if i could. The front desk person was too busy on a personal phone call while potential customers waited. I was told it was full and input my name on a standby list. I was told about 15 minutes.....no problem. 1 hour later still notiing, even though 2 groups came out of facility. It appears that see is just too lazy to clean and prepare the rooms. Cetain type of people should not be in a customer related field. Do not go to Minute Suites!!!!! read more

We used our priority pass, which was nice and supposed to get us an hour of rest. However, the staff, who were right outside our door, were so boisterous and loud in their conversation that we got no sleep. read more

Employee was very polite however I received no pillows or blankets. That makes it kind of difficult to nap & defeats the purpose. I never bother with the provided snacks/drinks but plenty were offered for a fee (although they're not a total rip off like most airport food). read more

This was my first experience with Minute Suites, and in some ways, it's exactly what the doctor ordered: you get a private room with a day bed, desk, TV, computer, and a basket of snacks. However, that basket of snacks is on the minibar pricing model, and when you're already paying $27/hour via Priority Pass (more if you're not a PP member) it feels a bit off in the business model. Provide a few free snacks and allow people to order more if they wish. I had not been in such a concept before and I have to say it's nice to just lie down on a flat day bed after a long international flight. May use again, but won't if there's a lounge option alternative. read more

I have stayed at several Minute Suites and the staff at the Philadelphia airport are by far the best! The restrooms are just across the hall and not an inconvenience at all. The rooms are very clean and quiet. Thank you to Marquisl for making my stay so comfortable and pleasant. read more

Priority pass members should utilize this place! I took a red-eye into PHL and was in a weird time of "not worth it to get a hotel" and "I can sleep in this airport". I debated checking out the admirals club, but then I realized there was Minute Suites. Minute Suites helps travelers in this scenario or if there are flight delays. Room: TV, snacks/drinks (for purchase), and a small couch with pillows and a blanket to rest on. There also happens to be a "noise dampener" in the room... I think. Generally they are supposed to give you a knock on the door to let you know your time is up. With priority pass, it's discounted at $28/hr after the first hour free. Depending on your time constraints and desperation to sleep, this is a great option. At the end of it, they took pity on me (did I look that tired?), and didn't charge me for my stay. read more

I had a 6 hour layover! I slept comfortably, got up refreshed and calmly continued my journey. Also the attendant was helpful and kind. Don't hesitate if you have a long layover. read more

Great place to catch some zzzzs for a few hours while in between flights. My wife and I had nearly an 8 hour layover in PHL before a 9 hour international flight, we wanted sleep and didn't want to deal with exiting and reentering TSA, so we chose Minute Suites. We were given a room near the back. It was small (as expected), but clean and very quiet considering the hustle bustle and constant PA announcements going on out in the terminal, complete with a slide out daybed large enough for 2, desk, TV and white noise generator. I liked that, as turning the white noise up a little truly made it feel like there was nothing going on around us or outside our room. We also found that the front desk has irons available for guests who want to straighten their clothes up before venturing on, which is nice. The only thing I did not like is that there are no restrooms in the Minute Suites. You can go outside and cross the high traffic terminal walkway to restrooms, but there are no showers accessible at all. I would definitely choose this Minute Suites again. read more

Got a chance to lie down kick off my shows and relax my feet. The girls at the front desk were extremely pleasant and did all they could to ensure I found a clean suite. It has the look of a massage/spa location. Lights are low and aide in relaxing your eyes. The suite is small but didn't feel I like was crammed in. I was able to lie down and watch tv, which helped me forget about how tired I was. Lots of channels that I recognized, so I really enjoyed that. Down side-nothing is complementary. Most lounges I visit have free drinks and snacks to help keep me full and relaxed. I would have liked to at least get water and chips. It's centrally located in airport and easy to find. I will visit next time I'm in the airport, but will buy my meal and take with me. That's allowed by the way. Go and check it out, you'll enjoy the time you're there. read more

Great concept. Our flight got canceled and we were stuck overnight in the airport. The time between our cancellation and rebooked flight was not enough to make it worth it to find a hotel but this was so convenient. It was also amazing to already have been through security. While they do have the hourly rate we were able to get eight hours for around $140 which was doable even though we didn't have eight hours to spend. The room was very basic and the air conditioner in the airport wasn't working well so it was pretty hot. Couch and pull out both covered in vinyl but was comfortable enough to meet our needs. Definitely not the same as a full hotel room. All in all was worth it for the convenience. read more

The room itself was clean and modern looking but for the price you don't really get much. The air conditioner needs to be checked because it doesn't seem to get as cool as it should. I would give it 5 stars if it had the following things: - Bathroom and showers - A common kitchenette to make coffee or tea - Complimentary water bottle in the rooms - Thicker walls to cancel out the noise read more

I come through PHL at least once a week. I use Minute Suites quite a bit as I do a lot of international travel. The staff are always lovely. One person in particular, who has helped me is Marquis Leonard. He always greets me with a warm smile and he goes out of his way to make sure I am comfortable. The rooms are small, but very quite and comfortable, with a TV if you want to watch or a couple of pillows and a blanket, if you want to take a nap. This place it really a life saver!! read more

I often thought it'd be a lucrative business if someone were to offer facilities in an airport where people could rest, work and sleep in peace and comfort; Especially on those days when one gets stuck at an airport for a layover of several hours. Along came Minute Suites! This facility basically took one of the storefronts at Philadelphia airport (also Atlanta and Dallas/Fort Worth) and installed a welcome desk and several private and noise proof "suites", where customers can go and have a nap on the sofa/pullout bed, watch TV, use the WiFi or built-in computer and desk to get work done, then receive a wake up call and hot towel to refresh in time to catch their next flight! Genius! Current rates are $41 with tax for an hour, and another $10 for each additional 15 minutes. Overnight stays are $130 before tax. IMO that's more than reasonable to catch up on sleep or just get a much needed rest between flights...Certainly a much better value IMO than paying the 1 day, 1 time $50 charge to use one of the airlines' private clubs! read more

I booked and pre-paid for a 3-hour stay and then had to cancel due to travel plan changes. Getting a refund was a true nightmare. The website does not function either for cancelations or refunds. It took me about six calls over four days to finally get a supervisor and a refund. This company wanted to retain the payment for future use. I would advise to NEVER book in advance. If you want to use this at last minute at an airport, fine. This is a very poorly run company with regards to cancellations of pre-paid reservations. STAY AWAY! read more
