The Bellevue Hotel

I recently had an opportunity to experience a one stay at The Bellevue Hotel in Philadelphia and it its recent renovations did not disappoint! The hotel has undergone a significant transformation. The guest rooms have been beautifully updated to blend classic elegance with a more modern design. Our Deluxe King room was comfortable and well appointed. We enjoyed cocktails at the Pergola bar and dinner later that evening. Although we did not have a chance to use it the Sporting Club has also undergone an update and is spectacular! If staying I recommend taking advantage of using the complimentary steam room, lap pool, or the fitness center. The hotel is well located and walkable to many attractions!

I was blown away by how different this hotel is now. I stayed there pre-renovation and let's just say, I was less than impressed. I love Hyatt hotels so I am thrilled that this can be my go-to Hyatt in the city. If you are planning a wedding, the event spaces are stunning and the new room designs are perfect for wedding parties. Did I mention the Presidential Suite?! 2,000 square feet with REAL orange trees. The restaurant is also completely brand new--it's now light and airy and a hotel bar I want to hang out at. And honestly, if for no other reason, you should stay here for access to The Sporting Club. It is unreal that hotel guests get complimentary access to a private members gym.

Hello, I recently had the opportunity to experience the Totally Redone Hyatt Unbound at the Bellevue on March 8 2025 for a single overnight. The hotel recently reopened after a total renovation. The Bellevue has a strategic position on South Broad St in downtown Philadelphia- it is located between City Hall and the Kimmel Center for Performing Arts making it a great choice for theater goers. It is just a few blocks from the Exclusive Rittenhouse Square neighborhood and not too far from the Historic District near Society Hill where Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell Pavillion are. The Bellevue building is about 120 years old being built in the early 1900’s. The Hyatt Unbound occupies floors 14-19 of this historic building. The lower floors are offices and private residences. The Hyatt Unbound though has their own Lobby and front desk on the ground level with an entrances on both Walnut St and a main entrance on Broad St. Beautiful restored lobby with a small sitting area. This is a boutique hotel of just 180 rooms occupying those upper floors- the 19th floor has a small bar, restaurant and ballroom. The rooms were tastefully redone in a modern tone, but preserving and retaining some of the Character of the original building, including walk in closet with wallpapered walls, high ceilings, original deep windows and sills and historic white tiles on the bathroom walls. My room had a king bed, flat screen tv, armoire with coffee and glasses, table and chairs as well. There is a massive and unique sporting club attached to the hotel guests can use. It was huge and encompassed several floors and is close to 100,000 square feet- there were basketball courts, pool tables, racquetball, pickleball, locker rooms, indoor pool, fitness center, and also a lounge with a snack stand as well. The hotel offers Valet Parking and has a front desk staffed 24 hours a day. I did not eat dinner there, but there was a small breakfast buffet of cereals, fruits, muffins, toast, and you could order off the menu if you wanted a hot breakfast entrée. Great experience!

The hotel is a beautifully well restore hotel, with the newest technologies one would expect. The room is clean, spacious and very classy as real hotels were back in the day. I love the Art Deco fixtures. Parking is connected to the hotel but it IS next door and parking garage has working elevators. The Kimmel Center is a 7 minute when on uses the NY walk. WE took 10 minutes due knees and it is on the same side of the street. Breakfast is really great, the "continental" feel included delicious Croissants, a beautiful "Crue de te" much like one would find in a high end hotel in Italy. Coffee is very good, OJ is fresh. The nice part is I went up three times to get more food and requested 3 cups of coffee. Best for last, the room was quiet warm and the bed was comfortable as the pillows are standard Hyatt excellence. The plush bathrobes are the best.

This hotel is beautiful and the staff is amazing. The rooms are large and bed was super comfortable. I would definitely stay here again. My son and I stayed just one night and wished we stayed longer. I didn’t use the athletic club, but it looked very nice. Valet was super easy.
