Love this hotel! Great service, excellent location. The rooftop bar is outstanding. Rooms are small but that's to be expected. Parking is expensive but that's to be expected, as well. We stay here every time we are visiting Philly!

Walking distance from Rittenhouse Square, City Hall and Reading Food Terminal. It's also betweem Market Street and Chestnut Street which makes it convenient for shopping and restaurants. Highly recommend this hotel; it looks and feels brand new with a great cafe in the lobby.

Great location and parking garage directly across the street. The street is a little rough looking— could have just been my arrival time as the garbage was out on the curb. The hotel, however is great. Coffee shop and restaurant open to both the hotel and the street. Very modern and clean. Will definitely stay again.

Good location, great restaurant, friendly staff
Good location, not too far from the convention center that I was going to. Great restaurant (Condesa) and fun rooftop bar. Friendly, helpful front desk staff. The room was quite small, but that's how some hotels are going now- spend your time in their common areas, not in your room.

Bait and switch - booked a Queen room, downgraded into a dorm room bunk bed. Asked staff to call other Hilton-flagged hotels in the area but they refused, apparently Modus (the group that operates Motto) doesn’t cooperate with the others. They have too many bunk bed rooms (the concept isn’t very popular) and apparently this is how they fill them
