Very nice hotel with excellent service. The highlights were a great staff and a great atmosphere. The rooms were very nice but a little pricy for the two nights I was there. The beds are extremely comfortable. The hotel has a lot of restaurants around it. The only downside is that it is a half mile from convention center and... More

Our vacation visit was over 48 hours to see 4 main attractions - Barnes, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Rodin Museum and Independence Hall. Hotel was within easy walking distance from them all. Pricing relative to similar quality hotels was good. We unreservedly recommend.

We stayed in a junior suite which consisted of a living room, bath, bedroom, and dressing room. Everything was well appointed and comfortable. The bed was extraordinarily comfy with a "feather" bed and comforter and lots and lots of soft pillows! We cranked the a/c down and slept like pampered babies! All the staff was helpful and friendly. We would... More

The staff was VERY attentive and friendly - no complaints! Room was clean and spacious! View was of a parking garage, but that's ok. Convenient location to shops, restaurants. My only complaint is that it took over an hour to get our car from valet parking.

The Sofitel Philadelphia is definitely worth staying at, especially if you book early, to receive a generous discount on the room. It's in a central part of the city, walking distance to great coffee and food around Rittenhouse Square. It's also close to many attractions and shopping. The beds, sleep quality and house keeping standards are amongst the best around.... More

I try to use this hotel whenever I am in Philadelphia. I have always found the service to be excellent, although on this particular stay, the breakfast experience was less than I would have preferred. There is a restaurant, but it is not open in the evenings which isn't a problem as there are many excellent places within a short... More

We’ll be back. My wife and I enjoyed the Jr. Suite. It was comfortable and there was plenty of room. We had 2 meals at the hotel also…a light dinner in the lounge area, and a delicious breakfast buffet in a separate dining room. The staff was friendly and helpful. It was a pleasant experience and we would recommend the... More

Stayed for 5 nights, bed very comfortable, room good size, service very good and I must single out marcy in concierge for being fab, she gets a table when there are no tables left by calling favours top class. A good hotel for a business traveller with free wifi

In my last review on this property back in February I mentioned how my only real gripe with the rooms here was the lack of power sockets! Well I have just returned for a night a mere 4 months later and I was delighted to see that my feedback seems to have been listened to and they have installed multiple... More

I was staying in Philly for a wedding, and selected the Sofitel. The experience was wonderful, and the staff treated us extremely well, going out of their way to ask what they could do for us. The location was perfectly placed in the city providing easy access to anywhere we wanted to go. While the price was higher than other... More
