Hotel Sofitel Philadelphia for Family Travel
Bonjour! If you are heading to Philadelphia, the Sofitel Philadelphia is the perfect location. Within walking distance to unique shopping and amazing restaurants, this hotel surpassed my expectations in service and comfort. For this visit, I was not with my family but I already can't wait to return with them so they can experience this luxurious Sofitel hotel for themselves and explore Philadelphia.
One of the most amazing things about this hotel is the location and view looking out of the window.

The lobby is vibrant with gorgeous brightly colored fish themed art and beautiful lighting details.

Room
For this write up, I stayed in a King Room 635 on the 6th floor. The fitness room is located on the 4th floor, so you don't have too far to go for your morning workout.
The rooms at Sofitel Philadelphia are absolutely phenomenal for business or family travel. I love all of the little touches they add to make a traveler feel like they are home. My favorite part is the lighting. I haven't stayed in a hotel room in a long time that was so beautifully lit up. I adore a bright room! Plus, the furnishings are SO comfortable with amazingly soft and plush bed linens.

Virtual Hint: Sofitel provides complimentary WiFi and water bottles in the rooms to their guests.
The bathroom is truly a nice size for a regular hotel room. With delicious smelling and body soothing Lanvin bath products, just hop in the bath tub and it's a spa waiting to happen.

Dining
Seriously, one of the best room service menus I've ever seen. I could just sit at this hotel (in my over-sized comfy chair, see above) and order room service all day long.

It was so hard to choose, but I decided on the "Philadelphia Tray" so that I could sample all of the local specialties Philadelphia has to offer. I also enjoyed a fromage platter for a late night snack one night. I am in love with the Banana Date Jam that accompanied it. Sofitel, can I PLEASE have the recipe?
Or, if you don't enjoy room service (I'm told this is true!) there are many places around the hotel to casually sit and enjoy a bite to eat.

If you are bringing your pet, Sofitel "So" Pets offers chicken or beef entrees, even a dessert, for your canine roommate on the room service menu. How pet-friendly is this?!
Virtual Hint: In the morning, head down to the lobby where they offer guests complimentary coffee and delicious flaky croissants. It's the perfect start to the day!
Philadelphia is a spectacular city for family and business travel. It's consistently one of the most visited cities for culinary tastes. Don't miss experiencing this luxurious retreat in the heart of this bustling city. Maybe I'll see you there!
