Hotel is nice, beware of car valet!!!

The hotel is beautiful and the staff is very nice. Our room was spacious and clean. It would have been an excellent experience, however, the valet service is horrendous. We called for our car at 9:53 am. Our car was pulled around at 11:22. That is unacceptable. The amount of people waiting for cars was ridiculous. Everyone waiting over an hour. We almost missed our flight, and would have missed it, but when we checked in the night before, the desk told us to call for our car in plenty of time because valet takes awhile. Awhile???? We thought maybe 20 minutes or so. We never expected an hour and a half. I feel like it would have been longer if we hadn’t of gotten irritated to someone higher up in management. To be fair, they did refund the cost of our overnight parking, but on no planet is waiting an hour and a half for your car to be brought around acceptable.

Great hotel, horrible valet.

The hotel and hotel staff is excellent. But they really need to work with their valet company that they use. It took me 2 hours to get my car. And I understand that a lot of guests were checking out but 2 hours is a lot. That being said, the hotel manager did comp us the valet charge.

I stayed here with a couple girls and my sister for my 40th and we felt so welcomed. We stayed in the hotel lobby bar for a good chunk of time the day of our arrival and the service was great. The staff was very nice and so sweet. The rooms were very clean and spacious. My sister and I enjoyed the robes that were hanging in the hotel closet, they were so incredibly soft. We were able to walk to the restaurant we had reservations at but when it came time for our booking, it was raining. Luckily the front desk had an umbrella and lent it to me to use. Our server for breakfast was very kind as well. Great stay and will be coming back again in the summer.

Wonderful hotel with a great vibe

Have stayed in many hotels in Center City and this was my favorite stay. The room furnishings were modern and clean, the staff was very friendly and efficient, and I loved the bar area downstairs. Just a wonderful all around experience. :)
