Unique in an amazing way. Each room is named and curated based on a trailblazing woman from the past. The whole experience is steeped in quiet luxury from the French press coffee with local pastries in your room to the lounge with sparkling water on tap for your personal glass carafe. Perfection in an understated way.

Beautiful property. I love that there’s no front desk, so no waiting in line to check in! The hotel is in walking distance to really nice restaurants and coffee shops. Walkable neighborhood and the septa station is right around the corner. I stayed here for a concert at WF Arena. I felt very fancy at this hotel I’ve never stayed at one that provided robes lol. Definitely worth a visit. And the staff is literally always a text away.

The Guild House Hotel is a smart, historic, and novel treat in a bustling city. I enjoyed the easy, tech-forward “invisible service” that made the entire property feel open to little ol’ me. I particularly enjoyed using the tap room where I could fill up, to my heart’s content, provided-bottles with sparkling or still water. The luggage dumb waiter makes the stairs less intimidating, while the generous kitchenette was a nice and helpful touch. During the stay, I felt at home while away.

This was one of my favorite hotel stays ever. Luxurious, stylish, comfortable and with meaning behind it. Can't ask for more! I feel I was able to enjoy myself, rest, get inspired and learn something new. You can't really get that from a lot of hotels. And amazing water pressure :)

It’s a gorgeous boutique hotel with an inspiring story. Inside you have everything you need for a luxury stay. The bed and shower are AMAZING A , can’t saw enough about. The decor, even better! But. The parking is crazy expensive and the area is kinda sketchy. You’re probably fine, but your chances of getting mugged aren’t exactly zero, so if you’re staying there, arrive by daylight.

Hotel itself was great — clean, spacious, stylish decor, good vibe. There is no one on site, no check-in desk, no concierge, but they were responsive over text, gave precise instructions for getting into the room, etc. BUT there were several belligerent homeless people lingering just outside the hotel. And it’s incredibly loud at night from the surrounding bars and clubs! Obviously not the fault of the hotel, but I would hesitate to stay there again…

The room has character along with a modern mix that blends perfectly. The communication was more than clear even though there is no on site staff. The only criticism is a dusty hallway with a slight air of age adding to our seasonal allergies.

Room Florence was beautiful!! The ceilings must have been 20 feet high. The bed and pillows were super comfy. I’m used to seeing on Expedia if the room had no windows on the main page. I quickly glanced at the pictures and didn’t catch it was windowless. The main concern was not setting an alarm so had no point of reference what time it was by lighting. I looked at my phone often during the night. We didn’t receive our complimentary bottle of wine but not a big concern but was missed. The dumb waiter wasn’t working to bring bags up to the secure room. The location was perfect. The communication was excellent and not having an on-site reception works well. The one tap sparkling water and still was super convenient. A beautiful property so would stay again. Thank you for your hospitality.

We just returned from a completely magical stay at Guild House Hotel. When traveling, love staying in places that are connected to the city rather than in cookie-cutter corporate hotels. Everything about this hotel exceeded my wildest dreams- it is gorgeous, comfortable, and centrally located. We will be back and I’ll be dreaming of Guild House every day until we are!
