Convenient location, comfortable bed and quiet, but overall a tired hotel. Windows dirty and did not open which was too bad given A/C often could not cool room. Nice desk person provided a fan, but still room was hot, damp and musty. WiFi spotty. Overall OK but I think there are better options for the price

07.06.2026 Genevieve

Fantastic day from start to finish. The hotel accommodated all of my requests. The location is excellent, with parking across the street and a plethora of fantastic food options nearby.

28.05.2026 Laura

I enjoyed my stay at this quaint boutique hotel. The staff was extremely helpful and kind throughout my visit. The hotel is tucked just off Rittenhouse Square on a charming side street, and walking to Walnut Street for shopping and dining couldn’t have been easier. The complimentary breakfast was lovely, and the rooms were tastefully decorated. I truly loved my experience here and plan to stay again anytime I’m in Philadelphia. I would highly recommend it to my friends.

16.05.2026 Robert

Excellent breakfast, pleasant helpful staff
Comfortable room
Bathroom needs improvements—poor drainage and low water pressure

06.05.2026 Charles

Nice stay for weekend in Philadelphia. Music from club next door was loud until midnight one night. Breakfast was a little skimpy. Also parking was a bit of an issue.

Neighborhood was great with a lot to do.

01.05.2026 Brent

Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast had nice selection. Room and bathroom were clean. Main complaint was lack of storage space for clothes, and the bedside tables were small.

20.01.2026 matthew

Beautiful, old building that lived up to its boutique atmosphere. Great (included) breakfast with attentive, friendly staff throughout our stay. Facilities appeared to need a little refreshing, paint job in room was not up to the standards of the rest of the hotel, but highly recommend for solicitous staff, great location, and comfortable, spacious room.

04.01.2026 Christina

This was the perfect location for us to spend New Year's day and attend the parade. The front desk and restaurant staff were all super friendly and helpful. Our room was very quiet and comfortable.

04.01.2026 Alannah

We stayed in'The Aristocrat' and it was overall a fine experience but way too warm (couldn't adjust the heating) and the bathroom needed updates. If we were to return, we would probably upgrade to King bed as those rooms were bigger and clearly better maintained (such as 'The Monarch' where our friends stayed) which also had a bigger and nicer bathroom.

29.12.2025 Connor

Staff was friendly and the bar next door was fantastic but with the price I payed I wish the bathrooms were cleaner and more updated.

Great place for lunch. Love the vintage ambiance and the friendly service. Menu is an eclectic mix of choices. Delicious!

09.01.2018 KirkerBezerker

For the last 6 years my fiancée and I have celebrated our anniversary here, and it’s always been memorable! Excellent appetizers, entrees, and desserts. I’ve tried most of the menu, but always come back to the Steak Fritz because it’s amazing. I always order it medium rare, and each time it’s been cooked to perfection. I can’t recommend Parc highly enough. Sure, you can spend more money at other restaurants but you won’t get a better meal and experience than here.

21.12.2017 Marcianne

Delicious and nice service. Lively and lovely atmosphere. Busy and a bit noisy at times. If you like quiet and solitude this is not the place for you. But if you want to be in the middle of a party, which I do, it’s a great place. Good people watching inside and out.

18.12.2017 Julie

Food is good. Busy and loud. Service always nice. Recommend the salmon sandwich with aioli. Outside seating available. Staff busy but attentive. Hostess to greet you. Space is tight. Take out friendly. Nice bathrooms. Pricing is moderate for the area with entrees between $25-$38. Portions were large. Dress is casual. Repeat customer x 4.

05.12.2017 Jeff

Very good food, we grazed the appetizer menu and split a salad, then went back for a cheeseburger to go from the bar for a late snack. Good Wine, very good service. I would recommend going early or getting reservations.

Pricey, but the price you pay is for *the best ingredients.* The quality of their tuna is the best I've had in Philly.

16.10.2017 Chris

Had a wonderful business lunch here. Enjoyed the Teriyaki Salmon 'Bento Bite', others had great Sushi rolls. Unobtrusive and efficient service. The 3 tiny dessert sampler of your choice is a delicious treat.

07.10.2017 Brook

Great and knowledgeable service. We had the edamame trio, miso soup, lettuce wraps and four rolls... the Kennett square, snot white, lobster wasabi and one other. All were fresh, delicious and beautifully presented.

28.07.2017 Tony

This establishment has the best sushi that I've ever had. Everything from appetizer to dessert was great. Wonderful customer service and overall good atmosphere. It has a chic and stylish decor throughout. The price point was a bit higher than other places, but hey it's Rittenhouse square. Service was also a bit slow, but it was a busy Friday night so that is to be expected. I will definitely be going back soon.

31.05.2017 Elizabeth

Over all, not great. My family and I went after my college graduation to celebrate, there were 7 of us and we were the only people in there. We got there early for our reservation so we decided to have a drink at the bar and the bartender was not friendly and very off putting. He disappeared for like half an hour while we were still at the bar. We sit and wanted to change the seating they had and the server gave us serious attitude about it. Reminder: we were literally the only people in there so it's not like we were taking up space for other parties. The whole time the server was rude and had a serious attitude problem. It was some of my family's first time having sushi so they were having issues and he didn't help at all. The food was small and mediocre, I literally left hungry. The dessert was one bite of food. This was the ONLY time we have tipped less than 20% and it was very deserved. Would not recommend.

Got kicked out after 1 drink with no reason given for expulsion. Boring atmosphere with unfriendly staff so not much of a loss.

06.01.2018 Jacqueline

Me & my childhood friend got together after work & had happy hour at this place we really had a good time there good food & drinks? looking for a nice place to go after a hard day at work go there very nice place & people?

05.01.2018 Wanemi

Good spot to grab a drink or eat some bar food during the day, on weekend nights they play the chart topping songs with a good blend of Hip Hop and Pop

02.12.2017 Meg

Cool place. Their food and drinks are consistently good, although their hummus could be better. Everything seems really clean, including the bathrooms. Table service can be slow. They clear the tables out of the way at 10pm to make more standing and dancing room. Bathrooms are unisex.

23.11.2017 Earshad

Fun place if you're trying to let loose for a night. Typically very crowded but but would you expect any less from a club in Center City?
