It's also the hippest downtown hotel: La Bourse, a sophisticated bar in the granite and marble lobby, is one of the few late-night spots in Center City (open until 2 a.m). In-house...

The wine list offers a surprisingly small selection by the glass, just seven in total ($7-$10). Recommended choices are the Clos du Bois Chardonnay and the Michel Redde Sancerre, both whites.
The Scene Upon entering this former site of the Philadelphia Stock Exchange, guests take note of the unusual marble and granite floors--designed to resemble a Shaker quilt--that lead up to the blue-granite reception desk. Such details are a precursor to the Shaker traditions reflected throughout the hotel's interior, with its soothing neutral shades and variety of cherry-wood...

Tearing yourself away from the lobby piano bar may be difficult, but once you step into Chez Colette, you'll soon forget show tunes even existed. One of the most underrated restaurants in the city, Colette is easy on the senses: suffuse yourself in the fin de siècle brasserie atmosphere, admire the antique Parisian posters on the walls, read the story of Colette from the menu, and then enjoy...

Unfortunately, all that turned out to be true. The hours are actually not...

My girlfriend and I (seemingly the opener for all of my Citysearch reviews...hmm) stayed here for a night a few weeks back during our weekend sojourn to Philadelphia. We're New Yorkers who wanted to do something different without having to travel far. We settled on Sofitel based on positive reviews both here and on other sites and I literally could not have been more impressed. The staff was...
