# The Warwick Hotel Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia – Elegant hotel with historic charm, dining, and community events

The Warwick Hotel Rittenhouse Square Philadelphia is a historic hotel located in the heart of Philadelphia, PA. This establishment offers a unique blend of elegance and comfort, making it a popular choice for both leisure and business travelers. Known for its spacious lobby and friendly staff, the hotel has garnered mixed reviews, highlighting both its beautiful architecture and the need for renovations. The Warwick is situated near Rittenhouse Square, providing easy access to local attractions, dining, and shopping, making it a convenient base for exploring the city.

We attended a wedding here and oh wow, it was the kind of night that makes your heart feel full. The florals, the chandeliers, the fancy wallpaper, it was like walking into a dream. Everything was elegant but still full of warmth and personality. And yes, very Instagrammable. Major heart eyes.

I hate to rate places so poorly but this hotel is not up to the Marriott standard yet. It was recently purchased and needs to go through MAJOR renovations before I would return. They DID NOT disclose they were under renovation in the app or website. The front desk staff and management were understanding, but I left upon check in. Lights didn't work, shower had evidence of grime, desk was nasty, bed was well worn, and paint was peeling. I don't think I would have slept.

This hotel should not be accepting reservations. It is in atrocious shape. To make matters worse, the staff is completely unprofessional, unhelpful, and some are downright rude. The woman who works the front desk, I believe her name is Francesca, but I do not know for certain since none of them wear name tags, perhaps to avoid the complaints, should be removed. I was supposed to stay more nights but moved to another hotel. Warick is ruining Marriott's name. Look at the condition of the room, the heater which did not work properly.

Um *Marriott* no ma'am. What is this hotel?? I was in town for like 36 hours and arrived at 1 am after a red eye flight. So you can imagine I was tired and ready for a good night's rest. To start the hotel will decieve you because the renovations in the lobby are decent. But as soon as you step on the floor where the rooms are you can see the age and wear and tear of the building. Now let's get into the room. Babyyyyyy a reno hasn't happened since 2008 atleast. The room is dated. Water stains on the ceiling, filth, dust a tattered chair that I wouldn't dare sit in. Moldy shower, a dark yellow ring around the tile around the toilet. I mean the room gave American horror story it was awful. I felt like it was one of those rooms that when you turn on the lights the touches scatter. The bed was wooden and my back hurt when I got up. Alsoo what exactly is going on with the door lock. Marriott what was the reason for that foolishness. This hotel is allegedly *4* stars but it's actually a wolf in sheep's clothing and it's actually a motel. Like Marriott...be so foreal. I for one would never stay here again. Had my trip not been so short I'd have left as soon as I saw the room. Absolutely not don't recommend.

Condition of our room was substandard. Our white sheer curtains were filthy grey. The white window shades were black with soot. The toilet was kiddie height. The tub was grouted and regrouted within half an inch of its life. Burned out ceiling light. Corporate Marriott has disgraced itself with this hotel acquisition. We may not be staying at any Marriott property in the future. Horrible.

The Warwick is located in a beautiful historic building in downtown Philadelphia. The lobby area is spacious and clean, and the front desk staff are very friendly and helpful. However, our actual room left much to be desired. Our room had some questionable stains on the carpeting near the bed, and a dirty hand towel was left on our bed. The bathroom did not have a fan, and as a result, the wallpaper was quite literally peeling off the walls. The floors had clearly not been vacuumed, as there were plastic hair ties on the floor. We had overheard from the front desk that the hotel was completely booked that night, so we knew there was no chance of getting a different review. Plan to pay for valet parking if staying at The Warwick, as the public garage was seemingly intentionally blocked off to force one to use the valet. Overall, the staff were all lovely, but the rooms were not. We likely would not stay here again unless the hotel underwent a major renovation.

I stayed at this hotel about 6-7 years ago and had a great experience with no issues. This past weekend, I visited Philly and was excited to stay here again, but I was incredibly disappointed. My first room had used towels folded up, a dirty bathroom, and a heavily stained mattress. I requested fresh towels, but instead, the receptionist offered me a different room. In the new room, two towels seemed clean, but one was stiff and appeared recently used. The furniture was outdated with visible wear and tear, the bed was stained on the side, and the carpet hadn't been vacuumed--I even found nail clippings near the chair, which was disgusting. The bed was extremely uncomfortable. Woke up with back pain. Had my stay been longer, I would've relocated to a different hotel. The lobby looks modern but once you get to your floor/room, everything is outdated. Honestly, this felt more like a motel than a hotel. Also, be cautious if using valet or garage parking--staff will rummage through your vehicle. Manager of garage was also racist and if you have cash, they pocket it

#WarwickHotelRittenhousePhiladelphia Great location for Hotel, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, specialty stores nearby, as well as a park with a weekly Farmers market. Loved the location. The hotel is clean and modern and the staff was friendly, professional and helpful. The lobby is spacious and beautiful, great place to meet up with friends or rest for a moment, so many things to see in the City, so don't waste time lounging around, unless you need to rest. I highly recommend this hotel. Price was average.

Absolutely breathtaking, from the views of the city, area of the city (Rotterdam house), and the lobby decor. The room itself was VERY spacious and comfortable. Very clean room, cool and neatly arranged & organized. The bathroom is very large, with both shower and tub. Rittenhouse Grill was closed by the time I checked in but their menu looks phenomenal. The hotel is in walking distance of quite a few restaurants, bars and cafes. My only letdown was the option in television/streaming services. It was only local cable, which was fine at the late hour. I checked in with a gentleman named Robert who was truly impeccable! His service, recommendations and overall care and concern for the guests was truly appreciative. For check out the next morning, the individual who checked me out was truly kind and the other staff I came in contact with.

I had one of the worst experiences staying at this hotel, and I travel for work almost bi-weekly. Prior to my arrival, I checked in using the Bonvoy app, but when I got to the hotel's front desk to retrieve my keycard at 1:30am (flight getting into Philly got delayed), the front desk told me there were no rooms available as they oversold and sent me to a Residence Inn for the night. Having gone through multiple flight delays, that was the last thing I wanted to happen at 1:30am, especially when I had to be at the customer site at 10am the following morning. They did not even offer to pay for transportation to and from the hotel, as I paid for my Uber rides out of pocket. Also, the hotel's overall condition can be very deceiving. The front lobby looks great, very modern and very upscale...Until you get to your room. After the first night, they had a room available, and the room I was given...Let's just say I've stayed in a nicer room at a Best Western than this. The tile work in the bathroom looked like it was done by "I know a guy," the caulk around the tub was installed by someone who had trouble tracing a picture, and the mirror was hung by someone who has never heard of a level. The carpet? Probably also done by the tile guy. I was really looking forward to staying at a historic building and experience the old building's charm. This isn't charm, this is sloppy work done by someone who flunked out of trade school. The Warwick is supposed to be on the higher end of the Marriott spectrum, and these attributes are very unbecoming of a hotel in this price category. Take a look at the photos and see for yourself. Needless to say, I do not recommend the Warwick. The Motto by Hilton is a few blocks away, and is a far better hotel than this dump. I know, because I've stayed at the Motto the last three times I was in town, and I should've stayed there this last time.
