The room was extremely comfortable and spacious, and - unlike many hotel rooms - was very well lit, with a comfortable seating area. The beds was one of the most comfortable beds that I have ever slept in. I almost didn't want to get out of bed to go see the city. The location is very good, close to the Mutter Museum and a 5 minute drive to the best cheesesteaks in the city (Jim's steaks). Walnut Street shopping is just a short block away, and there are many excellent restaurants and cafes well within walking distance. The staff at the front desk were fine, efficient if not friendly.

All in all the stay at the Sofitel was fine except for the room service. Don't get me wrong the food was great just calling room service was a little bit off. I wouldn't think that calling room service at 2:00 in the afternoon would be that hard,...
