My 14 yr old keet and I are flying down for Sat concert from Maine. Never been to Philadelphia. Hoping to stay within walking distance but I guess Holiday Inn is the only one and it's sold out. Any other sugggestions? Is driving in the city crazy like Boston? Any public transportation to Stadium?
Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated! See you Saturday!!

Heya,
I suggest getting a hotel at the Airport and just taking a cab to the venue. Shouldn't be more than a 10 minute ride.

From the Lincoln Financial webpage:

Are there any nearby hotels?

The only hotel that is within walking distance of the stadium is the Holiday Inn Stadium located at 10th and Packer Sts. For more hotel information, you can log onto the Philadelphia Visitors Bureau at www.pcvb.org.

Looks like the subway runs close to the stadium
