Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia
Time consuming luggage drop off and garage parking. Staff was polite. Not always informative. Pillows were so thick and large. Hard for sleeping

Hotel is in a fantastic location just blocks from city hall and Rittenhouse Square. Super clean onsite valet parking with in and out privileges and a coffee bar and Ruth’s Chris located in the lobby of the hotel. It’s definitely going to be my go to for Philly from now on.

Motto by Hilton Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square
Room was ok, if a bit small. There was no coffee maker, and breakfast is not served in the restaurant. Probably would not stay here again.

The Bellevue Hotel - The Unbound Collection by Hyatt
Beautiful property, excellent customer service, perfect location in the center of downtown. The only minor issue is that the elevator was slow, particularly when we have a large number of guests due to a wedding.

Poolside was comfortable but could’ve been more cleaner, however there were a good amount of people so of course everything had been out of place.
