Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, with an above-average bathroom setup, but otherwise unexceptional. The service was exceptional, from the friendly and efficient staff to the convenient amenities provided. The location was fantastic, close to everything one would want to see and do in Philly. The dining experience was outstanding, offering a variety of high-quality options. Overall, a great value for the money.
The hotel offered spacious and well-equipped rooms in a quiet location and excellent condition. The service was outstanding, with staff going above and beyond to make us feel at home, though there were some negative interactions. The location was convenient for exploring Philadelphia, with some minor confusion. The dining experience was a mix of excellent French croissants but also disappointing undercooked potatoes. The facilities were up to standard, providing all necessary amenities.
I had a fantastic time staying at the hotel in November. The delay in getting our rooms was a bit of a drawback, but overall, the rooms with nice stylistic touches were comfortable. The service was unbelievably attentive and friendly, especially with assistance in contacting FedEx for a delayed package. The location, although parking could be improved, was awesome with nearby shops and restaurants. The dining experience was delicious and quite upscale, although I wished there were more fresh fruit options.
Staying at the hotel felt like living in a luxurious apartment in the sky, with large and comfortable rooms. The service was unbelievably attentive and friendly, making me feel truly welcomed. The location was perfect for exploring the theatre district and enjoying the vibrant neighborhood. The dining experience was delicious but on the pricey side. Overall, a great stay with a few minor drawbacks.
