How can I travel between Philadelphia and NYC?


Travel Info
I am planning a vacation to Phily and NYC during Thanksgiving. I am planning to stay for 1 - 2 days in Phily and then go to NYC. Hopefully, I will stay at hotel around the Independence Park area. What's the best way to travel between NYC and Phily? Should I take the bus or train? How far is it from the hotel to train station? Where can I take the bus? Please advise. Thanks!

Travel Tips
Amtrak is at 30th station at 30th & Market st.
The Greyhound Bus station is at 10th and Filbert. st. & Peter Pan on 11th. Both are behind the Gallery mall. Near China Town.

The Bus is walking distance to your location arround 5th st. Personally I'd take the train.



Yes, Old city is safe. The city tends to over police the tourist spots. It us locals that deal with the crime in the nieghborhoods. The bad guys stay away from downtown

Others
The Amtrak station in Philadelphia is at 30th and Market Streets. Your hotel will be near 6th and Market Streets. A subway connects these two points. If you take the bus, you can walk to your hotel as the bus station is closer to Independence Hall. Buses are slower and cheaper. Amtrak is usually clean and sometimes a better class of passengers can be found there.

Grab a motel room at the Holiday Inn at around 6th & market ~ You can take the El to 30th Street Station to hop an Amtrack.
The El has several stops on Market Street. 5th Street entrance
would be most convenient for you. Take the El to 30th Street
Station.
If you want to bus it to NYC, You can do so at the Bus Station which is located at 10th & Filbert Street. ( walking distance from 5th & market area).
train, bus has too much traffic
