We made a last minute reservation to see the Philly 1/2 marathon. The Rittenhouse was the perfect location and had every amenity we could possibly ask for. From free glasses of champagne to slippers with the turn down service! Staff was very helpful throughout.

This our first time staying here. It’a five star Forbes rated hotel. I found many things that didn’t measure up to five star. In the room, the coffee maker didn’t work, nor did the bathroom scale, and the shower was very hard to turn off without it, dripping. I also thought it was very confusing trying to watch something on television via streaming. They have some caste system that I’ve never seen before and couldn’t figure it out. why not just offer your guest Netflix for free if you’re a five star. They had Reese’s peanut butter cups as their form of chocolate to purchase in the room. I just thought that was pretty cheesy … they couldn’t offer him more high-quality chocolate for five star?. The service at the library bar with very slow and on not attentive. There was Not enough seating near the piano player and a lot of outside people at the hotel …leaving hotel guests less access for seating. We waited so long for a drink that we left. The fitness center was well the equipped, and the spa service was very good. Hotel staff were pleasant and responsive. Lastly, they mischarged my spa service and didn’t call to tell me about it which caused me unnecessary time inquiring about the error. We only stayed one night so maybe no experience was unusual.

The hotel radiated a classic east coast style mid-20th century elegance recalling Park Ave or the Upper East Side in NY. The Rittenhouse Square neighborhood is a modish and upper crust neighborhood of downtown Philadelphia, great shopping and dining nearby. Only issue is the hotel didn’t seem to recognize my VIP Access gold status in any meaningful way. The front desk gave me “free WiFi and welcome drink at the bar”, which I’m pretty sure every guest gets. Not sure why they thought they could convince me that was a “VIP access benefit” 😂
