“Element Philadelphia Downtown strikes me as a balanced choice for those wanting a sustainable stay without sacrificing comfort. I appreciate the in-room kitchens, a detail suggesting a longer, more settled visit is easily accommodated. Its Rittenhouse Square location puts it close to the city's attractions, though the hotel itself seems designed as a calming retreat from the urban energy.”
