Hyatt Centric Center City Philadelphia

We’ve always liked the rooms, the bathrooms, and the views at this hotel. We recently tried the breakfast and found it much improved from the previous poor reviews. The dining room is comfortable and stylish, the staff is very friendly and efficient, and the menu choices are varied and interesting. My wife and I ate light—poached eggs and toast, a yogurt parfait, and coffees—but if we’d been hungrier the breakfast buffet looked very good. It was fully stocked with a lot of choices, several of them entrees from the a la carte menu.

A pleasant surprise in the center of Philadelphia, just a two-minute walk from Rittenhouse Square. The room was cozy and had nice decor, and the parquet floor gave a pleasant atmosphere to the room. The room size was good for a hotel in the heart of the city, with a very comfortable king-size bed and excellent pillows, a very good desk for the laptop to work, and the WiFi speed was perfect. Nice and clean shower room; the toilet was in a separate room. My room was on the 13th floor with a nice view of the south of the city. Excellent fitness center equipped with Threedmils, Ellipticals, and bicycles room service every day, unless you are asking to skip it the staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful

Location, overall quality and courteous staff

Wonderful interiors, really nailed the look. Centrally located near Rittenhouse Square and easily accessible by transit. Only a ~20 minute walk from the train station, making this a quite attractive spot to day trip to NYC or DC at less cost than getting a hotel in either of those cities.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Hyatt Centric Philadelphia. The room was comfortable both in size and in amenities. Except for the higher storage shelves, the room was very clean. The 'nightlights' on bed were helpful when getting up in the middle of night & stayed on the perfect amount of time. They weren't overly bright. I loved that the lights beside bed & seating area were dimmable. I requested a room away from elevators; they placed me at the far end of the floor (Room 901, King w/ City View). It was perfect - quiet and close to ice machine/water dispenser. (Ice machine was not noisy). Another reviewer complained about fans that ran constantly. The fan in each the shower/sink area & in the toilet area did run constantly, but the noise was more like a white noise and not distracting. I simply shut the door to the toilet to reduce the sound. Hotel is on a side street, which reduced street noise. Housekeeping emptied trash often & replenished towels/bath supplies every other day. That was enough for me. Housekeeping staff friendly, respectful and helpful, as was front desk staff & door man & one of the valets though I didn't use the garage at all. Location great for exploring Rittenhouse Square area, lots of restaurants close by and an easy walk to museums, historic areas of the city and subway stations. I liked that you can enter the hotel & go straight to your room without navigating a busy lobby/restaurant area. Also nice that key card is required to operate the elevator. Hotel is still new and hallways still clean and free of stains on carpets/walls. I didn't do a lot of shopping, though there are many stores close by. Overall, this was a great place to stay!
