Good suggestion - Visit the hotel's reservations site,https://doubletree3.hilton.com/en/hotels/pennsylvania/doubletree-suites-by-hilton-hotel-philadelphia-west-PHLGHDT/index.html, and look for the "Add Special Rate Code" item at the left. Our group code is SWL. It does appear to be working as of this morning.
Reservations made through that group code include up to two breakfasts per night stayed.
