"This boutique hotel has modern decor that adds a touch of European charm. It has an excellent Center City location, just a couple of blocks from the theater district."
Gayot
"Although it opened in 1998, this hotel was designed to reflect 1930s modern decor—you may feel as if you've traveled back in time to a cruise ship in the early 20th century."

"Chic and modern, this all-suites space is a rare, independent find, just a half a block from Rittenhouse Square. Large, comfortably furnished...suites tend to book far in advance."

"Belying the beaux arts facade, this extended-stay's "sleek", "minimalist" environs appeal to business travelers and vacationers who groove on "roomy", "apartment-style" suites."
Fodor's
"Though steps away from the popular park and surrounding shopping, the AKA Rittenhouse Square operates in a below-the-radar fashion favored by visiting actors and athletes."
