Sonesta Philadelphia Rittenhouse Square

8/10 Good
"The Sonesta is located in a great location with easy access to anything in the city. Staff was friendly and check in and out were quick. Beds and pillows are super comfy. My complaints are minor over all. Baths are too small but that’s what you get for a city hotel. I’m accustomed to such small baths in NYC though but not a Philly hotel. Also there was no end table on one side of the bed and no plug for charging a phone on that side of the bed. You gotta have a small table on both sides of a king bed. Still, I’d stay there again if the price were right."
