Concierge "The central location makes this a business traveler's dream, so don't be surprised to witness some expense-account posturing in the Vault cigar lounge."

"The Ritz is housed in a stunning 1904 bank building designed after the Pantheon, and its grand rotunda lobby delivers serious "wow" factor." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This exquisite, five-diamond luxury hotel sits directly across from City Hall in the former Girard/Mellon Bank Building."
Star Service "This hotel captures first place when it comes to high-octane commercial hospitality." Full review

DK Eyewitness "This is a comfortable Marriott-brand hotel housed in the historic, former City Hall Annex building."
Frommer's "The largest hotel in the state, and then some, the thrice-incarnated Philadelphia Marriott is high volume -- and surprisingly high service." Full review
Fodor's "This hotel is in the historic City Hall Annex, and the original brass, copper, and bronze details on the elevators and staircases have been lovingly refinished." Full review
Gayot "Converted from Philadelphia's former City Hall Annex in 1999, this historic building is now a 17-story respite of comfortable, modern rooms in the heart of downtown."
