First, I’d like to say that the staff was lovely and the lobby was very beautiful, architecturally speaking. But our room was… not great. Curtains were ripped. We found an old deflated balloon in the closet when getting linens for the pull-out sofa. The linens for said sofa consisted of a pillow and a prison blanket. The refrigerator drawer was broken, so we could not have cold drinks unless we ordered from room service. Most outlets in the common area did not work, even with several “does flipping this switch change it?” experiments. I’ve stayed in nicer Hampton Inns.

Derek

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pros: The property is in a good location, the beds were comfortable and the room was quiet. Cons: - Breakfast and dining in is extraordinarily expensive. A smoothie, omelette, and oatmeal cost me close to $80, and paying for breakfast as part of the booking only gives you a credit rather than an included breakfast. - dated furniture and bathrooms. Rooms are def in need of an upgrade. Water pressure in the showers was poor, and the bathroom leaked after every shower. Room felt more like a 3 star. - doormen don't help with bags or doors etc.

Overall, great experience!
Beautiful, stunning hotel, great food from the restaurant to the bar to in room dining! We had a few hiccups with our check in, having to return to the front desk 4 times before our room was ready. Made for a very long travel day. I would encourage management to ensure your new (or newer) front desk employees are ready for service worthy of the Ritz Carlton brand before putting them on duty. Great location and would stay here again!

It’s a Philadelphia staple but…
The Ritz will always be a Philadelphia staple but the rooms are subpar and in need of updates. The rooms are pretty dated. Also, we were initially checked into a room with a broken toilet which forced us to switch rooms. The 2nd room had rips in the curtains and a shower that made loud growling noises. It’s definitely not what you’d expect from a hotel with a luxury status. It’ll always be a Philadelphia staple so I’ll be back to visit the restaurant/bar and spa but I definitely wouldn’t stay at the hotel again. Unless of course they make some upgrades.

The hotel is clean, and leans heavy into its heritage as a name associated with luxury. That doesn't change its location-- it is in the middle of downtown surrounded by abhorrent traffic at peak times, walking outside greets you with the city smell of trash and smog, and if you plan on eating food in the city as of Dec 2023, you'll pay twice as much as you would outside of the city limits. The hotel is a pleasant stay -- the experience, not so much. You could do better by finding a stay outside the city and traveling in and out.
