"It's no longer the grandest quarters in town (that honor goes to the Rittenhouse), but empty nesters and business types still relish the traditional grandeur."

Guests have access to The Sporting Club at the Bellevue, an enormous complex designed by Michael Graves where the governor of Pennsylvania chooses to get sweaty when he's in town.

"A residential-style hotel with international flair, the Hyatt is perched on the upper floors of the 100-year-old Bellevue Building, which was once nicknamed the “Grand Dame of Broad Street.”"

"Hosts travelers in its antique-decorated space. There are a total of 80 beds in a dormitory setting. Chill out on the front porch or by the marble fireplace or use the facility’s free bikes."

Due to its secluded location, having a car or some sort of transportation is ideal.

" In its public areas, set with antiques, harp, oriental rugs and paintings, the place is more like a B&B than a hostel; the dorms themselves are basic. "
