Sofitel Philadelphia at Rittenhouse Square

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was wonderful. Wonderful buffet or menu items. Staff was also very welcoming and helpful. Only downside to our room was it is showing its age though all in working condition.

The Study at University City

10/10 Excellent

"The Study was the perfect place to stay while visiting Penn. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful, and the service was excellent throughout our stay. The hotel is beautiful, exceptionally clean and wonderfully quiet, and our room was very comfortable and peaceful. The location is fantastic, with everything around Penn easily walkable. We also really enjoyed the room service. The food was excellent, and we loved the inviting lobby and complimentary morning coffee. What really stood out was how warm and accommodating everyone was. We felt very well taken care of and would absolutely stay here again. The Study will definitely be our go-to hotel whenever we’re in Philadelphia. Highly recommend!"
