Loews Philadelphia Hotel

8/10 Good

"The location is ideal for the city and the building is a historic feature. Great views from the upper floors."

Sonesta Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was just wonderful, and you are right in the middle of the action. We like to go out exploring during the day, early dinner, and retire for the evening. There is a free bus service, I think it is called PHLASH, for seniors and only $5/day for everyone. It provides a hop on/hop off on a 30-minute circuit. We took it down to the end of Market Street and got off at the Liberty Bell (6th street) and sauntered back. Incredible experience. Valet parking is a bit stiff at $57USD per night, but if you have ever driven in that area, you will quickly realize why. AAA +++, we will be back -- loved it!"

The Logan Philadelphia, Curio Collection by Hilton

"M"

Hyatt Centric Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed my two-night stay at the Hyatt Centric. My room was ready upon check-in and was in pristine condition. Staff was friendly and professional, the hotel was quiet, and I had a lovely view from my room. The hotel is centrally located and close to restaurants, stores, and public transportation; it is also one mile from attractions like Reading Terminal Market. One thing to note: the entrance to the hotel is on a side street, which I almost missed because I was not expecting it. This has nothing to do with the service of the hotel, but is something to be aware of (I walked to the hotel at nearly midnight and felt perfectly safe). Overall, I would recommend this hotel for a getaway to (or staycation in!) Philly."
