Frommer's "Chic and modern, this all-suites space is a rare, independent find, just a half a block from Rittenhouse Square. Large, comfortably furnished...suites tend to book far in advance." Full review
Star Service " Rittenhouse Square is Philadelphia's most prized address for locals, and the talented team of staffers does a good job of making guests feel at home." Full review
Zagat3.5
"Belying the beaux arts facade, this extended-stay's "sleek", "minimalist" environs appeal to business travelers and vacationers who groove on "roomy", "apartment-style" suites."
Fodor's "Though steps away from the popular park and surrounding shopping, the AKA Rittenhouse Square operates in a below-the-radar fashion favored by visiting actors and athletes." Full review
Gayot "AKA Rittenhouse Square satisfies the needs of Philadelphia business and leisure travelers who are looking for upscale accommodations for stays a week or more."
Travel + Leisure "In a 12-story beaux arts building, this extended stay property offers furnished luxury apartments in one of the city’s best neighborhoods." Full review

"The 243-room Inn at Penn may be a Hilton, but it feels far more like a boutique hotel than a chain." Full review
Gayot "Rather than offering a stiff, formal, hotel-away-from home experience, this property offers the kind of atmosphere you'd expect to find when staying with friends."
Zagat3.7
"With a "men's club feel" and iPads provided for guests' use, there's a "perfect blend of old-school university hotel and modern amenities" at this "comfortable" inn at Penn."
Fodor's "Near the University of Pennsylvania, this hotel is a welcome sight for anyone needing to stay in University City." Full review
Afar Magazine "The 243 guestrooms and suites are classy, efficient, and relatively spacious, though it’s worth upgrading to a suite for a separate sitting area." Full review
National Geographic "Hilton property with art deco styling on the University of Pennsylvania campus, 238 rooms feature luxuriant bedding, plush robes, and in-room virtual office; wine bar and 24-hour fitness center." Full review
Lonely Planet "The Hilton hotel sits on the U Penn campus. The modern, comfortable rooms still have a classy old-world vibe. Prices double on weekends that have any U Penn-related event." Full review
Lonely Planet "This Hilton hotel is a fail-safe option at the heart of University City. Rooms are comfortable, if unspectacular, and come with iPads. It's a popular choice come graduation time" Full review
