I was blown away by the amazing two-bedroom suite offering beyond amazing views of Philadelphia, with a spacious and well-equipped kitchen. However, the open wall facing the window could be a bit of a privacy concern.

When I'm in the City Of Brotherly Love, it's always a pleasure staying at this hotel. The living room for our second stay was beyond amazing. The staff announced that he was going on break for an hour unexpectedly and walked into my room without knocking, despite the do not disturb sign on my door. However, they are attentive and leave no stone unturned in their goal of exceptional luxury living, offering room service, dry cleaning, grocery shopping service, and shuttle services.

The service was outstanding, making me feel truly at home in every way. The location was absolutely perfect, ideal for both business and leisure travelers.
