Hotel Location
Guest Reviews & Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms had lovely elegant decor, but the view overlooked the heating and cooling systems, as well as a parking lot with a large dumpster. The hotel felt upscale like a British tea room, which was charming. The service was lacking due to the rudeness of one staff member, but interactions with the front desk staff and room service were pleasant. The location was convenient for exploring the city, with many restaurants nearby and easy access to transportation. Despite some drawbacks, the dining experience at LaCroix overlooking the park was delightful, but there was some confusion about the meal inclusions.
Staying at this hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The beautiful room offered a fantastic view of the city skyline but was a bit noisy. The attentive and friendly service made my mom's birthday special, but there could have been more variety in the dining options. The location was perfect for exploring the city, but the dining experience was marred by a grouch waiter.
My stay at the hotel was truly exceptional. The rooms were spacious, modern, and light-filled, offering panoramic views no matter where your room is located. The dinner experience at the chef's table was truly a lifetime highlight. The service from the lovely front desk staff was outstanding, always accommodating and friendly. The location in picturesque Rittenhouse Square was unbeatable, offering proximity to great shopping and dining options.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were incredibly spacious and gorgeous, especially from the corner room I stayed in with panoramic views of Rittenhouse Square. The service was top-notch, making my experience truly magnificent. The location, although initially skeptical, turned out to be perfect, with convenient access to everything in the city. The dining options were both delicious and truly remarkable, leaving me impressed. Overall, a fantastic stay with some minor points to consider.
