The Sofitel Philadelphia building once housed the Philadelphia Stock Exchange and has since been transformed into an elegant outpost in the historic Center City neighborhood. The lobby’s striking floors use seven shades of marble and are patterned after the geometric designs found in traditional Shaker quilts.
The hotel's eclectic-chic style extends to its spacious accommodations decorated with calming natural tones and accented with vibrant abstract art. All rooms are furnished with a separate seating area and Sofitel's signature SoBed feathertop bed and duvet sleep system, listed as one of the Most Comfortable Hotel Beds by Travel + Leisure. Additional in-room amenities include complimentary Wi-Fi access, French bath products and a Bose Wave music system.
Guests can enjoy French fare in an authentic brasserie atmosphere at the renovated Chez Colette restaurant and handcrafted cocktails at Liberté Lounge. The hotel also offers a fully equipped SoFit fitness center.
The hotel sits two blocks from the iconic Rittenhouse Square and a block from the Shops at Liberty Place.

My friend valet parked their car to join me for the Sunday tea. When I was ready to leave there were about 10 people in line at reservation desk. Apparently the only way that I could pay was to wait in that long line. There should have been an alternate way to pay. Perhaps the supervisor of parking or concierge should have been able to handle that transaction.

They are renovating 4 floors of rooms very shortly. I know this because I complained that the bathroom, (very attractive) had some mold along the shower edge. I believe it was a function of the particular person who was responsible for cleaning the room. Otherwise, the furniture, layout, size, mirrors and lighting were all excellent!

There were a few disappointments. There were trays of food that were left out in the hall for over 12 hours a day (I would notice it when I left in the morning around 9am and it still wasn’t removed when I returned to the hotel at 4pm, and then when I left for dinner at 6pm and returned at 10 the trays were still there. I needed to call down to the front desk twice (on two consecutive days) to have it removed. The evening shift front desk was a little rude, but that could have been because they were all alone and it appeared to be a little busy.
Andrew the concierge was terrific! I liked the fact that when I booked a ticket for the Big Bus Tour company, they had a shuttle pick you up at the hotel for the tour and then a shuttle to take you back to the Sofitel once the tour concluded.
Overall, it was a terrific trip to Philly!

The hotel is in serious need of updating and attention. We booked a king suite and had to change rooms because of several issues/broken items in the first room only to find a set of different issues with the second. The furniture is worn and chipped throughout, sofa with holes, room refrigerators barely working and the list goes on. For the money just book the Kimpton hotel across the street because the rates here are not on par with a more luxury experience. A Hampton Inn would have less issues. It’s really too bad, it was such a lovely place and not long ago.
