The staff at the Rittenhouse is the best I’ve encountered anywhere. We stayed there several years ago, and most of the staff we encountered- doormen, valet, concierge, and front desk were the same people. They do whatever they can to make you delighted.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I had very high expectations for this top rated hotel. But our first night there we found filthy bedding. Once we called management, they immediately sent staff to redress this. This particular staff member repeatedly knocked on our door as I was on the phone with the manager. Unable to get to the door to let them in, the staff member burst into my room without my permission. Good thing I wasn't naked! :) Anyway, the next day, after returning from a long afternoon walk, I found dirty hand towels in the bathroom! Come on!! Really?? I don't know what's going on at The Rittenhouse Hotel, but my stay was very disappointing. I was told by management that they'd contact Expedia for a partial refund. Will not recommend The Rittenhouse Hotel to family or friends. Sorry. If it's any consolation, the spa and indoor pool, was was very nice, clean, and well-maintained.

Pros: Property is very nice, it’s a beautiful hotel , could be a great getaway for couples. HUGE plus it’s dog friendly. Amazing. Car service offer is a nice touch. Breakfast is very good too, great options. Cons: Front desk is lacking training,knowledge at least the ones we encountered with. Housekeeping is terrible. Room is not very clean- esp showers. Gross. Even after they apparently made the room. It’s half way done. Nothing is replaced either: like tea, or body lotion. Definitely needs an upgrade on that. Overall all the experience is nice but room for improvement for sure.
