    I spent New Years Eve here. Amazing location within walking distance of all the fun events the city was hosting, yet located on a quiet street so we were not disturbed by people walking down the street late at night. The staff was also very friendly and set up very nice finger foods and wine for guests to enjoy before they went out for their celebrations. Room was beautiful as was the rest of the hotel. Like somone before me mention the bed was SO comfortable. Can't wait to stay there again!

    I can't think of a better place to stay. The location is within an easy stroll to excellent restaurants and the cultural events we attend while in Philadelphia. The rooms are well-decorated and housekeeping immaculate. The staff is attentive, welcoming and knowledgeable about the city and its offerings. I highly recommend staying at Rittenhouse 1715.

    While the lavish decor of this establishment will blow you away in breath taking awe,the 2nd worker since he is the only one there at night could learn a bit more in the customer ervice dept from his coworkers,the female there in the morning,and the other very delightful gentlemen who just started there a few months ago.He is not discreet in settling a bill like the other two and will blurt it out in front of any one in ear's length, not a good thing when you are in such a gorgeous place and spending a pretty penny to relax. Thee upside is to meet thee owner who while displays a business like attitude is also very nice,For a bed and breakfast especially one so well decorated the vibe given by the staff should be just a bit more friendly and personal.

    My wife and I stayed here the wknd of our wedding. It was absolutely wonderful with the most comfortable bed and pillow each of us has ever experienced. Our only regret was that we couldn't spend more time here.
