Top The Palestra Hotel Reviews

Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia

10/10 Excellent

"Clean great location staff helpful parking across the street worked well"

Philadelphia Marriott Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff"

The Windsor Suites

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was absolutely amazing. I have to thank Holland for getting us checked in quickly, and helping throughout our stay She was a rockstar. The gym is up-to-date and very clean. The pool is absolutely beautiful up on the rooftop with an infinity pool, but make sure you use it in the morning not the afternoon because the taller buildings block out the sun in the afternoon. The pool is heated and can be used year-round. The restaurants attached to the hotel were great and so was the location. I would say the only thing I did not like about the hotel was the carpet in the rooms definitely outdated and dirty. I will definitely stay here again. Next time I’m in town for business."

Element by Marriott Philadelphia Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location and a staff that was dedicated to making sure all my questions were answered. They had a very nice breakfast buffet and even a happy hour some afternoons. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it."

Motto by Hilton Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square

10/10 Excellent

"Very impressed by this hotel and wish I had been able to stay longer. The room was clean and tidy - very efficiently laid out. I had a good city view, comfy bed, large tv, and mini fridge. Parking situation isn’t great - they sent me two messages telling me they had a discounted rate at the garage across the street. One said it was $50 and the other said it was $55. There was no discount - the garage attendant specifically said there was no discount. And it was $55. Please don’t lie to your guests. Just say parking is across the street."

Sheraton Philadelphia University City Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"good place to stay"

DoubleTree by Hilton Philadelphia Center City
