I truly loved this hotel. It has a wonderful vibe and was very comfortable, and the staff was helpful and efficient. At first glance around the lobby, I thought it was disappointingly small and lackluster. But it turned out to be comfortable and elegant, and a wonderful place to be, conveying private luxury and liveliness at the same time. The room was comfortable with the most luxurious bedding I've had in any hotel, and the bathroom included an upscale glass shower and slate countertops. One of the best, if not the best luxury hotel I've ever stayed in. I would certainly choose Sofitel in the future. An amazing price for the value.

We had a quick one-night stay at the Sofitel Philadelphia this past weekend. Check-in was fast, easy, and pleasant. Ditto for checkout. Our room was modern (but thankfully not ultramodern) and tasteful, and the bed was quite comfortable. We didn't stay long enough to check out the gym, bar, etc., but our short stay was nice. I would stay here again.

We have stayed at the Sofitel Chicago before and loved it. The reviews make this one top in Philly, and they are spot on. This is a class act. The staff are friendly and attentive. The rooms are luxurious, the bathrooms marbled and wonderfully equipped.The bed is sumptuous and the pillows feather-hypo are available.

Breakfast was fantastic as was the one in Chicago-possibly the best hotel breakfast I have ever had.

Check in and out were very quick-no queues and attentive staff.The security lady went out of her way to find me a phone charger at 1am!! The concierge helped plan our sightseeing and was only too happy to find us local cinemas and gave me a print out of all the shows and how far away they were.The gym was state of the art and empty-no one could laugh at me!!

Located centrally, I found this place hard to fault- in fact I cannot!!

Well done again the Sofitel team.

I was reluctant at first to try the Sofitel when my corporate travel booked me here, but boy was I glad they did. GPS made it easy to find, although I didn't check the neighborhood out, it's central downtown Philadelphia location made it covenient for me with work. It's just a few minutes off of I-76, but all my travel was during off peak commute times.

The check-in experience was a little odd, I had just checked my corp travel website, I had the correct days, but they didn't have my reservation, luckily they were able to find a room for me.

The guest room is very spacious with one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept on. It's a shame that both days I wasn't able to sleep in.

I found the lighting kind of odd, and at times there was not enough reading light in the room. Though there are light controls for the hallway right at bedside which is brilliant.

The bathroom is outstanding. Bath tub or walk-in glassed in shower. Granted I did find that at times space in the shower was at a minimum. I'm over 6' tall and trying to lift legs in the shower was a tough manuever. The water pressure was average, not low flow, but not peel the skin off either.

The toiletries were some brand I never heard of, but everyone I worked with was talking about them. They were quite nice.

Had a late dinner in the lobby lounge, $15 burger was overpriced for the size of entree received, though I wasn't going to be picky at midnight on a Monday.
