Our family had a wonderful time at the hotel. The hotel is in the perfect location. We hope that the city in general will be safer. We saw a lot of homeless sleeping on the street.
We love the Rittenhouse Hotel! The people are very friendly and accommodating and it’s super clean. I only have one negative comment…the bath towels are small and thin. One of ours even had a hole in it. For such a luxurious hotel I find that very strange.
But overall we love it!
