Great hotel right in the middle of a vibrant neighborhood.

High praise to Greg, met us at the curb with a luggage trolley and incredible recommendations for parking, dining and places of interest. A wonderful start to a very nice stay in a top notch hotel.

Staff was friendly and professional

Wister was a very gracious host! Very nice and accommodated all my needs!!

I’m from New Jersey and I drove into Philadelphia Friday afternoon to see a show. My girlfriend reserved a room at the Hotel AKA, 135 S18th St. we stayed one night but I am so glad we stayed here. The staff was amazing! They were professional, courteous, and so very friendly. I would like to send a special shout out to my man Greg, the door man! Have you ever gone somewhere and there’s always that one person who stands out? That’s my man Greg! He is totally in his element. He helped us tremendously! He went so far as to push our luggage cart all the way to the parking garage across the street so we could avoid the traffic jam on S 18th street. Talk about going over and above! All in all it was a great experience staying there and next time we go into Philly, I’ll be booking a room at AKA!

The hotel was fantastic and spacious, perfect for our group. Greg went above and beyond! He was truly outstanding and made our stay a 10/10!

Greg was the nicest, best, most helpful person! He made our entire experience so special. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Great location.

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.

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!!

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.

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!

This hotel was great! The staff was professional and friendly. Dealing with Wister at the front desk and the doorman Greg were so wonderful. They were accommodating, friendly and willing to help! We will definitely stay here again!

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.

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.

Amazing hotel and GREG is the man! Great service and a great time!

The rooms were very clean and quiet. The staff were amazing! Wister was extremely helpful and nice. Will definitely like to stay here again when I plan an actual vacation.
