"Great stay and perfect location in Philly for shopping, restaurants and museums"

9.0

Great staff, great location right in the best part of Philly. So much shopping and restaurants within walking distance. A special thanks to Maria and Greg for making our stay very easy and comfortable. Greg was ready to assist whenever we needed help parking, loading our car, getting to our room, telling us about the area, etc. A great stay overall. The suite we stayed in was very large and comfortable.

parking directly on site would be nice, but considering it is a major city, I know it is a hard ask. The closest deck is not far away, just around the corner, and Greg will help guide you to it.

"Great location and great staff!"

10.0

Staying at AKA Rittenhouse now - great location! Large and modern galley kitchen and large living room with a great L-shaped sofa. Bedroom could use better lights and another dresser, but bed is big and comfortable. Nice views of Rittenhouse square. One area to improve: Bathroom is very small and toilet is low, but bathroom is clean, well lit and well functioning. Really great staff! Very friendly! Weekly cleaning is awesome. Apartment is dog friendly. Common areas are well kept. Attached Restaurant and Bar are really nice too. Best of all - we just love Greg who manages the lobby and all comings and goings of guests/tenants. He is so helpful and so friendly!!

"Visiting for the NCAA basketball tournament."

10.0

Discovered this property when searching for downtown accommodations. Having previously stayed at an aka property in DC I knew we were in for a treat. Bianca greeted us upon check in and was wonderful getting us some extra things for the room as well assisting our late arriving party late that night. The rooms are very spacious for a major city. Wister and Bianca were both great helping us over the weekend when we needed to modify our travel plans. Highly recommend this property for location, space, cleanliness and convenience. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here on a return trip to Philly.

"Outstanding Service and Exceptional Staff in Philadelphia"

10.0

I had a truly pleasant stay at this hotel in Philadelphia, which was mainly due to the exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. I would especially like to highlight the porter, Greg. He was consistently incredibly courteous, friendly, and attentive. Whether it was assisting with luggage or simply offering a kind and welcoming presence, Greg truly enhanced my stay. The front desk team also deserves great recognition. Despite some challenges on my end—particularly regarding billing issues, credit card charges, and switching to a corporate credit card—the staff remained patient, professional, and solution-oriented throughout. I would like to give special mention to Juliet, who handled my situation with great care and calmness. Her friendliness and dedication left a lasting positive impression. Overall, outstanding service—many thanks to the entire team!

"Great team! Large suite."

10.0

The staff makes this a great place to stay. From the moment we pulled up Greg was on top of our every need and made the arrival a breeze (even stopping traffic so we could make the turn to get to the garage I’d booked). Even before arrival Maria at the desk helped arrange for flowers I’d ordered for my wife to be placed in our room in advance. Great team! Would definitely stay again.

"Superb staff and accommodations"

10.0

The AKA Rittenhouse is an outstanding property in many ways. The apartment we stayed in was beautiful, immaculate, very functional and well-equipped. The bed was extremely comfortable and the space was quiet and felt very private. The property is so well located, with the park, shopping and dining within easy walking distance. The gym, while small, has everything we needed for a good workout. The staff, however, was beyond amazing. Maria checked me in and went so far out of her way to find a room that suited my needs. She was gracious, friendly, kind, and efficient. The doorman, Greg, was a foundation of information and took immense pleasure in suggesting restaurants, providing directions, and just generally demonstrating Philadelphia hospitality. When our son checked in a couple of nights after I did, Wister was so friendly, helpful and extremely kind and accommodating. I will hope to never stay anywhere else on future visits to Philly. These people really made the AKA feel like a home away from home.
