The luxury of a five-star hotel, the access of a premier location, the convenience of high tech amenities, and the comfort of a home away from home - AKA Rittenhouse Square brings everything together in one impeccably designed building sitting proudly on what may be Philadelphia's most bustling corner, 18th & Walnut. Respectfully transformed with stylish, up-to-the-minute interiors that still preserve the building's magnificent historic facade, AKA's extended-stay building is at the heart of this city known as the "Birthplace of America". With sleek lines and stylishly contemporary decors, each spacious apartment provides all of the comforts of home, along with the service and amenities of a luxury hotel - for best of both worlds.

The personnel are exceedingly professional, courteous, and amiable; they create an atmosphere that is reminiscent of a home away from home. This will be our second visit to the location. We will be returning in a few weeks to stay once more. We are grateful for the generosity shown to us by Meheka, Bianca, and Juliet. They have all been phenomenal and have treated my family and me as if we were a part of their family. I am deeply grateful for their assistance, as I am currently in the area to attend consultations at Penn Medicine and undergo surgery in a few weeks.

Great hotel great and giant suites. Great location. We had 3 parents and a high schooler and had plenty of space to relax rather than being jammed into a regular or small room. Made the trip much better. Parking convenient around the corner. Plenty to do on the neighborhood

Aka never disappoints! What a lovely stay. Wonderful staff that always takes the time to help me reserve the best room type that accommodates my family’s needs. Thank you to Juliet, Wister, Tina and Willa for their warm welcomes every time we passed by the front desk. The suite was spotless! Thank you to Yadir, Aniyah and Australia for all our housekeeping requests. A great weekend celebrating my daughter’s 18th birthday at the best hotel in zPhilly, hands down. A special shout out to Tony for squeezing me in for a last minute booking on a busy weekend. If you are looking for family-friendly, clean, prime location with an exceptional staff visit Aka Rittenhouse Square.

Wister is the best! I stay here just about every other week for business. I think I’m on my 15th day this year and they treat me like royalty every time the nicest staff, the cleanest rooms and the location is unbeatable. There are two bars in a restaurant with a fitness center so it’s incredibly convenient.
