Fishtown is a neighborhood of Philadelphia, right next to the city towards the northeastern part. The vicinity took its name from its former role as the fish trading center of the city. So, when you visit Philly and you want to stay in a working-class Irish Catholic neighborhood, this is the place. Recently, however, the neighborhood has seen a large influx of young urban professionals which makes it even more popular to stay. Take a look at our list of the best Airbnbs in and near Philadelphia Fishtown, Pennsylvania and have a nice stay in the ‘city of brotherhood’.
