Our experience at The Franklin on Rittenhouse was absolutely amazing. We were greeted by John and another sweet woman at the front desk, and they were so kind and helpful. We stayed in “The Monarch” room on the first floor. It is a very comfortable and romantic room. It was also extremely clean and updated! I loved the rainfall style shower as well. While booking the room, I mentioned that we were celebrating my girlfriend’s birthday, and the hotel we so kind to write her a card and left chocolates on the bed. It was such a thoughtful gesture. I cannot speak highly enough of our experience here. I highly recommend booking your stay here if you are looking for an amazing boutique hotel experience.

The attached speakeasy was exceptional!

Property and decor is beautiful… however there was no heat control in the room and windows don’t open so it was a sweat lodge in our room that the staff couldn’t do anything about. Also.. the shower was either cold or scalding. They do so much right… the breakfast is wonderful.. front desk staff lovely but you couldn’t get a glass of wine in the bar and take it to your room but the bar wouldn’t accommodate in house guests without a reservation at the speak easy. When I told the manager of these issues… she graciously compensated us for one night…but I doubt we would ever stay again. At this price point … one expects the basic services such as correct temperature in the room and shower to not be an issue.

Very friendly staff. Prime location. Condition of room was subpar considering the potential. For example: room heat is controlled by one thermostat for the floor which is in a common area, therefore room was a little cool and drafty due to the understandably older nature of the building. No mini-fridge in the room. Lock box did not work.
