Hotwire Hotel: 4* Philadelphia (City Center West - University) Rittenhouse 1715 A Boutique Hotel

[MelP]

Headed down for an overnight to see Radiohead in Camden... Seems like a busy time in Philadelphia, prices are pretty high - I've been striking out on Priceline up to $115, even for 3*s, and Hotwire pickings have been extremely slim. I suspect it's lack of availability - if I waited, it might open up more, but I wanted to lock something in. Anyway, this morning I checked Hotwire and saw a 4* in this zone for $121 with High Speed Internet, Fitness Center and a 4.5 rating on Tripadvisor. I did another quick round of bidding on Priceline just to ensure nothing cheaper popped up, but struck out again. So I went for it on Hotwire, based on checking this forum's hotel list for amenities and then Tripadvisor, I was 99% sure it was going to be the Rittenhouse 1715 A Boutique Hotel - and I was right. :) Best available web rate on the hotel's site was $179, so there was some good savings there.

I did use the HOTWIRE link - thanks to this forum for all the data, as always. :)
