How many universities in the United States can lay claim to having their very own castles on campus? Arcadia University is one of the few that can, giving their Knights mascot a home worthy of medieval royalty. There’s more to this renowned institution than swords and shining armor, though – especially with Philadelphia a quick joust to the south. Choose one of these hotels near Arcadia University – now bookable on Culture Trip.

Just a few miles east of Arcadia University is the Hampton Inn, right off of Interstate 276. It’s the perfect spot if you’re searching for a hotel near campus, and will get you right back on the road in the morning after a free breakfast. Unsure of how to get to Arcadia, Trenton, or downtown Philly? The staff will point out all of the best attractions around, including Legoland Discovery Center only 20 minutes away.

The staff at Sheraton might not be able to tell you how to get to Sesame Street, but they can point you to Sesame Place theme park, right across the road. Big Bird, Elmo and the rest of the gang are waiting to play with your family when you’re done splashing in the indoor heated pool. After a day of singalongs and compulsive counting with a certain vampire, the kids should be tuckered out enough for you to sneak down for a relaxing dip in the whirlpool.

Chain Hotel

Hilton Garden Inn is only 10 minutes from the Grey Towers Castle, so you can scoot around the area in a matter of minutes. While they may not be quite as close to Blankley Field as the dorms are, the suites here are much more spacious, plus they’re private and have room service, and the on-site restaurant can set you up with cheap drinks.

It all sounds so perfect, you’ll forget you’re not on vacation.
