Riversuites at The Battery
What a cool hotel! We travel quite often & this hotel stood out with the old renovated building with the loft-style rooms with high ceilings. Great location with the park & trails next door & within walking distance to lots of places.

Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia
Great location near Rittenhouse Square and shopping. Easy to get to major sights. Room was a good size with a large TV that you could cast to. Really liked the free coffee and tea and water. You have to take an elevator to the lobby then a separate elevator to the rooms.
