About this property

Beautiful Rittenhouse Square House 4 bedroom and 2 baths

Same day booking check in is 4pm or two (2) hours after booking, whichever is later.

First floor -- living room with high ceilings eat-in kitchen and French doors to a small private patio.

Second floor - Two bedrooms are separated by a super small study with two separate doors to each of the bedrooms. One bedroom has access to this study.

Third Floor -- Two bedrooms one on each end of the hall. The front bedroom has two doors, one to the hall, one to the bathroom. The bathroom on this floor is in the middle of the floor with two doors, one to the front bathroom and one to the hall accessible for the back bedroom.

The house has central air and hardwood floors throughout.

We fell in love with this bright and airy corner town home's high ceilings, original details, and amazing desirable location.

We've aimed to furnish the entire house for a comfortable stay while maintaining this historical house's charm and details.

The beds are made with freshly laundered sheets, towels, and of course, cleaned for your stay.

We purchased this home after enjoying hosting a smaller house nearby that is my parents' primary home when they are in the United States. We hope you will enjoy your stay in this new house during your visit to Philadelphia. Please note we do not allow for local guests. Please let me know the reason for your visit.

Family Get Away

It was a wonderful place for two couples and our daughter!! We had a great stay in a nice neighborhood. House is older (so it shows its years), but you are in a historical city. There is lots of room for all. Communication was AMAZING with the owner and we appreciated the prompt responses and flexibility.

Excellent location!

Great location - near shops and restaurants. Sophie was very easy to communicate with. Old house with creaky floors and simple bathrooms but that is part of the charm. Well equipped kitchen.

Great neighborhood

This is a cozy and charming house in a great neighborhood and easily walkable to the convention center and nearby restaurants. The beds were overly firm for most of us, but we all slept fine. Bathrooms are tiny and have no vanity space, so make sure that you have portability for your toiletries.

Quick Trip to Philly

Our family decided to take a quick stop in Philly on our way to our final destination in New Jersey. This was the perfect spot. We were halfway between the historical Liberty bell and independence hall and the Franklin Museum and Rocky steps. The place was so clean and so cute and Sophie was so easy to reach and quick to respond to our questions. Would definitely stay here again.

Cozy condo in the city

We had a great stay! We were taking a long road trip and needed a place to stay for one night along the way. Condo was perfect. Very cozy decor, plenty of space for my family of 4 to spread out. Near great restaurants within a very short walk. Parking next door. Had all the amenities. Owners super responsive and made sure we were all set for the stay. Even double checked to make sure we parked in a legit lot. Only downside is beds were super firm but I think that is a personal preference. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Weekend Stay

Overall a good choice and would stay again. Great location in Rittenhouse Square area. House is old but has been partially updated. Could have been cleaner as baseboards and top of fridge were quite dirty. Kitchen was sufficiently stocked with coffee machines, dishes, pots, pans, silverware. Floors and stairs are creaky, old, and appear dirty. Beds were.hard as other reviewers noted, but adequate. Really the location is the driving reason to stay here. Heck in/out was easy.

Perfect spot to explore philadelphia

If you’re looking for a place close to restaurants, museums, bars, etc, but tucked away enough for a good night’s sleep, look no further! Plenty of space, ample beds and bathrooms, and a huge kitchen. All at a great price.

Nice place to be in a nice part of Philadelphia

All four beds were comfortable. Plenty of blankets, towels, and pillows. Place was stocked with coffee and tea. Great place to stay to visit Philly. Small couch and TV, not really great to hang out but that was fine with us. Kitchen and bathrooms were adequate.

Wonderful Stay! Great Location!

Our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) loved staying here. This historic home is beautiful, well-appointed, in a great walkable location, and check-in/check-out was a breeze. I highly recommend it and would love to stay here again.

Very organized and the kitchen is like a home with everything you need basically. The only minor thing was the one of front doors was not that easy to open, It took us some time to open it.

Fun time in Philly !

Affordable stay in downtown Philly for our family of 5. The home is unique with character. I would recommend adding more furniture to the living room space as we were not able to relax in the evening as a family comfortably. Thank you for hosting us.
