The Ritz-Carlton, Philadelphia

When you are in our grand lobby, be sure to look up at the soaring oculus. This oculus is 142 feet from the floor, the same as the Pantheon in Rome .

Drawing on over a century of the city ’s art , culture, and commerce, The Ritz-Carlton, Philadelphia has revealed a long-awaited new design that adds modern touches to its unique neoclassical roots.

Though a premium, upgrading to the Club Lounge is so worth it. Five meal presentations daily, unlimited beer/wine/spirits, breathtaking views , and the kindest concierge team.

The staff , the Ladies and Gentlemen, are extraordinary and go out of their way to be helpful! Mark, the Concierge , is top-notch. He restaurant suggestion of Barclay Prime was superb.

Relax to the sounds of rhythmic music that fills the Lobby of The Ritz-Carlton, Philadelphia while enjoying a view of the 140 foot Oculus just above you.

The hotel is housed in the impressive century-old building of a former bank and is very close to Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell????

Top Chef Jen Carroll mans the pans here and makes us smile with her Buffalo Sweetbreads , and one of the best chicken dishes in the city . Get dessert , too as Chef Monica is a pastry and chocolate beast Read more

One of best Bloody Mary's I've had in Philadelphia. No Bloody-Mary's-are-only-for-morning stigma; can get at any time. Around $12 or so and worth it.

Great service & lobby. The rooms seem a bit dated & due for a refresh. The suites are bigger than my apartment . Telephone in the bathroom in case you're really busy.

If no stars were an option that's what this would be. Reservations for two months. 4 rooms for the weekend, Marriott awards platinum member and cash paying frequent traveling customer.

This bank turned Ritz Carlton luxury hotel is an amazing mix of half classical features (the dome was designed after the Pantheon in Rome ), half modern, and all luxury .

Try the Corn Chowder ! It’s bursting with the sweetness of Lancaster corn but has a slightly spicy finish. (That’s from the jalapeños .) It’s vegetarian but has the depth of chowder made with bacon . Read more

Pretty disappointing. No possible way it is worth the price.

Best staff ever

Not a great Ritz, nice folks working here but the rooms lack sound proofing. I think I hear ever door on the floor open and close.

The beet salad and celeriac soup are delicious!

Great hotel ! Nice bar

Am in love with Anna, front office manager. Made my stay.

Anna helped us with our issues; unfortunately, the weekend Club level concierge needs an attitude adjustment.

The soft pretzel appetizer is pretty damn delicious.

The Happy Hour is awesome!!!

The Shrimp Bisque and Salmon Tartar are great!
