Beautiful room! Excellent service! Everyone who works there was lovely, efficient and cheerful. Amazing afternoon tea and cookies in the lobby. Easy walk to restaurants. Good breakfast. Highly recommend.

We had the most amazing 2 night stay at The Rittenhouse Hotel over Memorial Day Weekend. We knew we were in for an exceptional weekend the minute we were warmly greeted by the Doormen and stepped into the beautiful lobby. We stayed in 2 gorgeous 2 bedroom suite with 2 1/2 baths, honestly it was the nicest suite we have ever stayed in and was HUGE with windows overlooking Rittenhouse Square. My son spent almost all of his time when in the room sitting on the window sill taking in the scenery. Everyone was gracious, warm and friendly but some standouts were Gregg (Managing Director), Kai - nothing was too much trouble for him and he had fantastic suggestions and always a big smile, and Chris in Concierge. Special shout out to Chris for coming to our rescue in the hotel Jag when we got stranded after mistakenly getting on the wrong Hop On/Hop Off bus. The hotel is the absolute perfect location and we loved strolling through Rittenhouse Square just steps outside the hotel. Can't wait to go back!

My recent stay at the Rittenhouse was absolutely perfect! The room and amenities are top notch, with all the staff equally amazing. The bathroom with the separate area for the toilet, an amazing tub, and the walk in shower was so convenient. The sal water pool was refreshing on these hot July days. I enjoyed that daily after exploring the city. The view of the park was an added pleasure. The room is large and feels like home- a very nice home! This is definitely a luxury hotel but with a welcoming, not pretentious feeling. The sincere care from the staff was always evident. I look forward to another stay at the Rittenhouse when visiting Philadelphia.

We just completed a very pleasant two-night getaway at the Rittenhouse. I think that two things set the Rittenhouse apart from some of the other 5-star hotels we've been to: (1) The Rittenhouse is an oasis of quiet luxury and sophisticated elegance, rather than flashy glitter and celebrity glamor. Though it is right in the heart of Philadelphia and as luxurious as any of the other 5-stars, the hotel is situated on green, leafy Rittenhouse Square, where it is calmer and less commercial. (2) Throughout our stay, every staff member in the hotel was so cordial, friendly, and welcoming. Each staff member called us by name, and those who knew that we were celebrating my husband's birthday greeted him with a "Happy Birthday" each time we encountered them. We felt so pampered and taken care of, but in a such quiet and discreet way that it was not overpowering. The atmosphere at some of the other 5-stars where we've stayed seem brusquer, busier, or more self-impressed.

We have stayed in top-end hotels all over the world and the Rittenhouse was one of the nicest we have stayed in. It is elegant throughout without being off-putting. Our suite was roomy, with comfortable furniture suitable to a guest's needs. Plenty of space to store clothing in dressers & closets. Adequate no. of towel racks in bathroom, which seems to be rare in good hotels these days. Staff were friendly and helpful.
