Living room in Hotel AKA Rittenhouse Square
This is an absolutely exceptional place. Prime location, the suite was in fact a large, fully equipped apartment with high ceilings in a beautiful historic building in a part of the city that has a London vibe. That is all there, but what really makes AKA Rittenhouse Square stand out are the people. The welcome note by Bianca was hand written and truly personalised, a bottle of wine awaited us in the living room and we had great fun with the assistant whose name was actually London... When I sadly had to leave early due to a medical emergency, one night was actually taken off the bill - that had never happened to me anywhere else in decades of travelling. We are already planning our next stay there.

Our best memory here is the concierge service. Thank you Wister! From the moment you arrive to leaving, you feel as though you live in the City and have a regular friend to help you. Always there and very keen to supply every need. The laundry room was broken and they offered use of a suite with a machine or a free wash externally which was great. We had living room, kitchen and bedroom with bathroom. All decent sizes; kitchen fully equipped even provided Nescafe pods. Bathroom has tub and shower. Lovely views of sunset and reflected sunrise in hotel across the square. Location is fine in a seemingly safe upmarket area. Transport easy.

Stacia and Breanna at the front desk were wonderful. Check in and check out was a breeze. The room/studio layout was fantastic. Especially for families traveling with children, the living space with a couch and the kitchenette is a great bonus, makes up for smaller size primary rooms. Mattress and bed linens are comfortable. Overall well appointed, clean, quiet. Location is a plus! The Rittenhouse park with the farmer’s market on saturdays and its central city park vibe was a great winding down place in the evenings. Lots of restaurants nearby including K’far and Goldie. Walkable to both science museums and the Barnes Foundation.

For some reason the hotel never received our reservation from Booking.com so check in was confusing and stressful- they found a room for the first night (of our 5 night stay), but didn't have a room for our entire trip. I spent the early morning hours looking on my computer for alternative possibilities for the remaining 4 nights of our stay in Philly. The next morning the manager was able to find a room the we were able to move to for the rest of our stay (thank you!!). This was not the hotels fault - it was Booking.com.

I always stay at AKA Rittenhouse when I visit Philaelphia. It is my home away from home. The staff at the front desk are exceptionally helpful. The apartments, no matter what size you choose, are clean with all the amenities needed to minimally make coffee (in the studio) all the way up to a fully equipped kitchen in the larger units. The beds are comfortable, the views of the city or Rittenhouse Square are the best: I wouldn't choose to stay anywhere else.
