Pros:

The location is perfect

Cons:

They took away all of the original aesthetics, placed it with modern. But I understand their remodeling, even the rooms which desperately need it.

To be homest, I expected better. Like I stated previously, the room was just “okay” I expected more from a hotel in Rit
Pros:

The lobby was beautiful.
Good location.

Cons:

The room was sub par.
The room did not look like the picture.
Toiletries were small and not enough for 2 people. Bathroom was dated and the patch job in the shower was horrible.
Also, 50.00 dollars for parking was insane. You spend a lot of money to stay at the hotel and parking can not even be included?

The worst hotel experience in the US! Way overpriced!! Not worth the money!!
Pros:

The location was convenient.

Cons:

The furniture was worn in the lobby and room, scraped and with stuffing coming out. The carpet was filthy! The towels were stained and mismatched! The bathroom was very cramped.

VERY run down in need of a refresh
Pros:

Lovation was decent, staff was nice, coffee shop was really good

Cons:

Place was completely run down in my opinion (except for the lobby, which was super nice!), the rooms were so shabby, the bathrub was peeling paint, the beds were so old and springy, the furnture old. For what was paid per night, it was def not what I expected at all. It was clean, but I will find another place next time.

Pros:

The location and nothing more

Cons:

I recently stayed at The Warwick Hotel Rittenhouse Square and encountered a number of serious issues that I believe fall well below expected standards.
1. Room Condition: My assigned room was severely outdated: the furniture appeared dilapidated and poorly repaired, the bed linens did not properly fit the mattress, and the ceiling displayed obvious water damage. Overall, the room’s condition did not reflect the quality promised by the hotel.
2. Fire Alarm Evacuation & Staff Response: On the morning of [insert date], around 9:00 a.m., a fire alarm blared across the building, prompting an evacuation. The fire exits were not clearly marked, and—most concerning—the lobby staff provided no guidance or explanation. There was no communication about whether there was an actual emergency, nor instructions on where or when guests could return safely. The complete lack of professionalism and communication was alarming and unacceptable under any circumstances.

3. Parking on your website states parking costs $50 and I was charged $75

Given these circumstances — particularly the safety issue and poor facility maintenance — I expect that this matter will be reviewed thoroughly. I request a prompt investigation and a fair resolution.

I appreciate your prompt attention to these serious concerns.

Warwick Hotel stay.
Pros:

This hotel was recently added to the Marriott portfolio. We checked in without knowing it was being renovated. It was indeed in need of renovation. The lobby area is terrific but the rooms themselves are dated and cramped. Would not recommend this place until completion of work. The best thing about it is the proximity to Rittenhouse Square, shops, restaurants, etc. James at the front desk was helpful taking care of a problem with cold water in our shower. And Steve the bellman was a gentleman and helpful as well.

Great locale and staff. Tired rooms.
Pros:

Visited the Warwick this weekend. The lobby and common areas are great. The location is great. The front desk and bell staff were friendly and professional. The guest room (fifth floor room) was quite tired. It had a mildewy/old scent. Carpet was meh. The air conditioner never kept up. Room was 76 upon arrival and never made it below 70. Not matter how I tried to game it - From the wall or the device. LOL
