This was our first time in Philly and Rittenhouse Sq area was recommended. The hotel is small, the room was nicely decorated, had all we needed. The breakfast was simple enough to hit the spot. The staff were fabulous but Addison was my favourite. Nice to be welcomed with a kiss when you entered the lobby!! (Addison is a black lab in case you were wondering 😜). We walked all over the city with ease, never felt unsafe and even took in a Phillies game via the subway…super efficient. We loved Philadelphia and look forward to visiting again. ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### FABRICE 2 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great place to stay ##### FABRICE Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Noah 25 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities There was a nice dog at checkin. ##### Noah Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John 5 Feb 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great value for the neighborhood and super friendly staff, very welcoming and helpful. ##### John Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Derek 25 Feb 2025 Incredible staff and a beautiful and clean historic hotel!
