Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

I had a wonderful stay at The Motto Rittenhouse Square and wanted to express my gratitude to Jon and Dayana for their exceptional service. They upgraded me to a queen room which was a pleasant surprise. The only minor inconvenience was the absence of a bottle of water in the room, requiring me to visit the front desk. Nonetheless, their hospitality and the comfortable stay made my trip enjoyable. Despite that, the overall experience was great thanks to the warm hospitality and kind gestures from the staff. I look forward to visiting again in the future! Thank you, Jon and Dayana!

Hotel's Favourite
The place to stay! We loved being within walking distance of Jenni's Ice Cream and Rittenhouse Square. Nice walk to Reading Market. Inexpensive Uber or public transportation to get to Phil Museums. So many restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Great option for those on a budget! Thanks to Mo, at the front desk. She was so courteous and helpful. Super clean room and a comfy bed! Would definitely be our choice again on a return trip.

In addition to being the best location imaginable, the price, comfort, service, staff, and amenities exceeded all expectations. My 15 year old and I were visiting Philly for the first time for a concert, and chose Motto because of the location and price. When we arrived, we were blown away by the hip vibe of the lobby and first floor restaurant and lounge. The staff was extremely courteous and accommodating. Mo and Jenni at the front desk were kind and very helpful. The level of hospitality made our stay! From helping with places to visit and transportation, it was seamless, easy, and fun. My fifteen year commented in the elevator on the way to our room, they are so cool. The room was comfortable and had everything we needed. The rooms are small, but very comfortable. Everything was clean with an attention to detail. The beds were perfectly soft and comfortable. We stayed in a bunk bed room wishing was perfect for us. For our second night we asked if we could move our room a few floors up to get a better view and it was taken care of with ease and kindness. He location could not have been more convenient. We ate cheesesteak at Cleavers and sushi at a conveyor belt sushi bar, Kura, and had an awesome funky dinner at The Continental; all within five minutes walk. We also walked to the museum district with ease! Probably the best hotel experience I’ve ever had! It made our trip.

Casual, contemporary, clean, comfortable, convenient. Perfect home base with easy access to food, shopping, parks, museums, and Philly's historic district. The staff was friendly and easy-going, but also speedy, responsive and attentive. Mo and the rest of the front desk staff gave me all the help and information I needed.

I love this hotel. It’s small and not a big big hotel. It’s a great location. Very walkable to everything in downtown Philly. The staff is super. Kyle, Isabell kind, Dana and , MARIE couldn’t of been more helpful. They answered all of my questions, gave me directions and helpful hints about, what you see and do. The rooms are nice and clean. I stayed in a suite, which was the size of a normal hotel room, and very comfortable. I will definitely stay here again.

Fun vibe and great location. Can walk basically anywhere you want. Lots of great food and drink options around. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Gym in the basement gets the job done for a quick workout while enjoying vacation time. Will stay again.

The bed was really comfortable, the room was clean and had a nice view! The only downside was that they put a $150 damage hold on my card which was more than I was expecting. Overall it was a great experience, highly recommend!

Really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Beautifully appointed and includes a rooftop bar and excellent coffee/pastries in the main foyer. Great location in the town center - majority of attractions in walking distance. Plus the tour bus has a stop near by. We were welcomed by Dayana who gave us great service. Mary and Jackie lovely were very helpful during check out. Would stay here again and recommend to others for short stay

The hotel is very conveniently located in Central Philadelphia. It is a rebranded Pod hotel, which is a type of microhotel with bare bones accommodations. Overall adequate relative to what you're paying. The adaptation is modern and clean, and the bar and lobby area look pleasant and inviting. Did not have the time for the rooftop bar but pictures were attractive and If I had more time I would definitely visit. First impression was not the best as the doors were locked at around 9pm and no one responded when I repeatedly pressed a button. Fortunately the Hilton digital key worked, this is unacceptable and should be fixed. Parking is across the street but park yourself otherwise you will be charged $50, I paid less than half of that.

An excellent location for visiting Philadelphia museums like the Barnes Foundation, Penn Museum, Rosenbach Museum, and others, because they are in walking distance of the hotel. Also the hotel is close to many restaurants and shopping.
