Sofitel Philadelphia at Rittenhouse Square

10/10 Excellent

"There are a few things I really appreciate when I book a hotel room. The Sofitel met all my expectations. I so appreciate a make up mirror. I was attending my sons wedding and being able to get a close up of my face for applying makeup was awesome. One of the other niceties was seeing an umbrella in the closet for a rain shower. I didn't need it, but I was thankful to see it there. The also had bathrobes and slippers. I brought my own slippers, but was glad it was there in case I had forgotten! The bed was comfortable and the extra pillows were welcome. My room wasn't lacking in amenities. It was a very nice stay. Thank you!"
