My husband and I stay at this hotel very frequently. The staff is great. Restaurant delicious. Rooms very nice and comfortable. They have a complimentary weekday happy hour 5-6. And even allow dogs for no extra charge.
It's located a few blocks from beautiful Rittenhouse Square; and you can easily walk to many great places in Philadelphia.
Make sure to join their Kimpton karma club-- many locations to earn free nights and other up-grades.
This is a beautiful building with twisted arches in the chapel, Tiffany stained glass windows, an absolutely gorgeous painted dome depictibg the night sky - complete with planets- on the night of the dedication of the Church. The tower lights up the night-time Baltimore skyline with a cross.
Even if you are not religious, just from an architectural point/ historical point of view, Lovely Lane is must see.
