The Rittenhouse
Pennsylvania
The Rittenhouse overlooks Philadelphia's Rittenhouse Square, with rooms facing either the park or city. Accommodation is generously proportioned, from guest rooms of 450 to 600 square feet to larger suites with separate living areas. Marble bathrooms and distinct sitting or dressing spaces give the rooms a residential feel. Lacroix combines French bistro influences with global flavours in seasonal menus built around local ingredients. The Library Bar offers cocktails, rare spirits and small plates in a book-lined room, while the Mary Cassatt Tea Room serves afternoon tea with pastries and seasonal sandwiches. The Spa & Club adds an indoor saltwater pool, steam room, sauna and fitness facilities. Park-facing suites make the square particularly present during a stay, while the hotel's dining and wellness spaces provide reasons to remain inside between visits to Centre City.
