Top Southwest Philadelphia Hotel Reviews

Club Quarters Hotel Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia

10/10 Excellent

"The please was great to stay if you in Philly"

Extended Stay America Suites Philadelphia Airport Tinicum Bl

8/10 Good

"This place is so close to being an easy three star, yet falls short on the basics... What respectable hotel, let alone an extended stay doesn't have an ice machine for the guests? This alone, if known would have sent me somewhere else. Kitchen was great, but no coffee maker and a missing hair dryer? Front desk did as much as possible but management insists on leaving out the small stuff. One, ONE! cello wrapped plastic cup supposed to last me for three nights. Right outside the airport was super convenient but still quiet as can be, Close to rail station for fast ride to Philly, and far enough out that there's NO trouble with perma-campers and 24 hour pharmacies. Some hiccups, but for the price. I'd stay again. Grocery, take out and restaurants easily reachable."

Sonesta Select Philadelphia Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel is very clean , very helpful staff. First room hot water in shower didn’t work . We had to change rooms , which was very inconvenient after a very long day . And when we washed some clothes we put over $8 in dryer and still wasn’t dry . But we told the staff and they actually took our clothes to their dryers for the hotel and dried them and this was very much needed as we were traveling back to California the next day . Would definitely stay here again ."

Sofitel Philadelphia at Rittenhouse Square

8/10 Good

"The hotel is gorgeous and in a great location. No 5star for me due to guest services. When calling guest services - around 2pm - we asked for a cot for a teenager. I also asked for two additional pillows for back support for my own bed. Someone came up to deliver right away and brought a pak n play. Ok , a mistake. We told the man to please bring an adult cot and pillows to our room while we were out. He stated ,” I’ll be right back”. I thanked him and gave him $20 tip. By 6pm we had no cot. We had to call guest services again. Finally got a cot but no extra pillows. No attention to detail. Rooms beautiful with huge bathroom. Double Beds (no queens) very uncomfortable. Like sleeping on box spring."
