This sophisticated downtown hotel is conveniently situated near the Kimmel Center and Rodin Museum. Delight in the architectural highlights of the hotel, such as a geometric lobby floor design inspired by Shaker quilts and crafted from seven types of stone.

I had never stayed at this property but glad I found this last trip. Superb location just blocks from Rittenhouse Square, on Sansome with great shops & restaurants. Exceptional staff from the doormen to the front desk team to the cleaning team. The rooms are very spacious and packed with amenities. I’m not a big paid mini bar guy and would only request a small fridge for personal items as well. Otherwise this place has it all.

The front desk person that checked me in was extremely kind, patient, and helpful on an extremely stressful day. My room was lovely and provided perfect chance ti relax.

Lovely hotel in a wonderful neighborhood. 4.5 stars Highlights: - Great location: in Rittenhouse which is a swanky part of town. Also accessible to lots of things in walking distance - Nice staff: greetings at the door on arrival and welcome backs were appreciated - Decent small buffet breakfast - Big lounge bar downstairs with seating and TVs - Comfortable beds - Provided few bottles/cartons of water per day - The Paraguay World Cup team was staying there so had a great buzz to it with their team and fans Lowlights: - Poorly designed happy hour menu which made it look like champagne and fries was part of that but only on Thursdays

All of the staff at the Sofitel were terrific, very responsive and helpful. The room itself, while spacious, had poor lighting and was a bit dated. The mattress was not very comfortable (sunk in quite a bit) and when we arrived there was a hair in the bed. The hotel is conveniently located near broad street and city hall and is great for accessing Septa, etc if coming to Philly for an event at the stadiums

Lovely hotel.

Thank you so much for the great rates with extras like breakfast. My traveling companion is receiving cancer treatment and needs to eat breakfast, which was included with our stay at the Sofitel in Philadelphia on your site. Their staff was great, they provided a refrigerator for us to use in the room which was an added extra. I talked to the front desk before I left and told them how helpful their consigner was and how we enjoyed our conversations with him. Ivan provided some excellent dining options for us which worked well for us.
I have talked to several of my friends about using Luxury Link and hope they will find it to be their go to site. This is the first time I’ve used your services and will definitely check your site before booking any other hotels. This is the first time that any 3rd party site has offered better rates than the hotel themselves. I had my doubts, but when you showed your BBB rating, I decided to take the chance and I’m so pleased that I did. Thank you for making our stay at the Sofitel Philadelphia exceptional.
