We are so sad to be leaving this beautiful hotel in Philly and so glad we picked it for our first stay in this city!
We generally love the Kimpton hotels but this one really stands out as excellent.
All of the staff were absolutely wonderful, from the giving us local tips and making check in and checkout seamless. We felt so welcomed after a very long drive!
Everything is pristine, super COVID safe, and clearly well cared for while also being charming and bright and allowing the historial buildings beautiful bones to shine.
No soul-less corporate vibes here!

The on-site restaurant was also great- thanks to the bartender for making me an especially delicious non-alcoholic cocktail! They also serve La Colombe in the morning which is also fantastic.

Our room was a dream, spacious and bright with a view of the park. Because this hotel is on the corner and both corners overlook the historial parks (unlike any of the others nearby) there are so many great views to be had from the rooms!!! Really well
insulated as well, noise is not an issue here.
Wonderful cosy bed, excellent amenities, and a super cosy bathrobe that I really appreciated.

Ideal location, we only had one night in Philly and loved that we were right next to many of the historic sites and also could wander the cute cobblestone streets. Parking was self (cos, pandemic) and super quick, easy and affordable.

If you are headed to Philly, highly recommend staying in this gem of a hotel! We will for sure be back!!!
