Element Philadelphia Downtown

Element Philadelphia Downtown

10/10 Excellent
"This was my first time in Philly and the first time at Element Philadelphia Downtown - and I loved it! Staff were friendly and helpful at check-in, even referring me to the W next door for concierge assistance, where they recommended an excellent restaurant within walking distance. The room was spotless and well-thought out on top of being extremely comfortable. It was an excellent experience overall and I have been telling family members we will return together for a longer stay. While all other areas exceeded expectations, one area that could be improved is to offer breakfast food suitable for keto diets, like high-fat plain yogurt, nuts, and fresh blueberries. "
