For guests who are driving to the Logan Hotel or the Mutter Museum: Overnight parking in Philadelphia is a bit steep. The valet rate at the Logan Hotel is $72 a night (sorry!). The off-site parking garage, Logan Square Parking at 1815 Cherry Street is next door and charges $55 a for a 24 hour period. Neal also recommends downloading the "BEST PARKING" App for much better rates if you are ok with parking around the corner, etc: https://www.bestparking.com/philadelphia-pa-parking/neighborhoods/ If you want to park at the Mutter Museum for the wedding on 11/1, there is a very convenient lot with a 24-hour attendant right behind the Museum for a flat rate of $20: PARKWAY LOT at 26 South 21st Street/ 21st St. and Ludlow.
