Our experience at The Franklin on Rittenhouse was absolutely amazing.
We were greeted by John and another sweet woman at the front desk, and they were so kind and helpful.
We stayed in “The Monarch” room on the first floor. It is a very comfortable and romantic room. It was also extremely clean and updated! I loved the rainfall style shower as well.
While booking the room, I mentioned that we were celebrating my girlfriend’s birthday, and the hotel we so kind to write her a card and left chocolates on the bed.
It was such a thoughtful gesture.
I cannot speak highly enough of our experience here. I highly recommend booking your stay here if you are looking for an amazing boutique hotel experience.

Clean, spacious, parking lot right across the street. Quiet 3rd floor suite. Plentiful breakfast items including smoked salmon (Yum!) and delicious coffee. Staff-- helpful, friendly. :) We plan to stay again in October when we attend a concert.

After staying in multiple bland hotels in Philadelphia, we found this lovely historical hotel which gave us a newly renovated room ( and kitchen area) which took our breath away. We felt as if we had entered in a Matisse painting, and with its olive green accents everywhere and its beautiful wood floor, it is just very elegant. At last a hotel with very good taste and audacity in its decor! The staff was very nice also. They let me have breakfast although I had arrived just when they were closing. And the dining-room was nicely decorated as well with original and interesting paintings. We loved our stay in this hotel, and we recommend it very highly.

We had a wonderful stay!!! All the charm of a small boutique hotel with a nice breakfast, friendly staff, and super comfy bed. The Belle Epoque suite is seriously luxurious and was perfect for a fancy girls weekend. Being right off rittenhouse was ideal… art show, drinks at Parc, dinner nearby… Amazing.

We wanted a boutique experience in the center of the city and it was as described and reviewed in other forums. We were able to walk to most of the places we wanted to visit or in a couple of cases a short uber. The front desk staff were friendly, chatty, and responsive to our needs. The bar / speak easy was a nice concept and not standard to mix it up a bit. The breakfast was decent and reasonably standard but not remarkable. It is an old property so there are stairs and level differences which can be navigated but could cause some guests some extra focus or accommodation. The rooms were nicely designed and felt each slightly different. We would go again.
