- Philadelphia, USAWhy it's cosy
Tucked into a row of thoughtfully converted townhouses just off Rittenhouse Square, the Dwight D charms with beautifully appointed rooms featuring rainfall showers, cloud-soft beds dressed in luxurious linens, L'Occitane toiletries, and a curated drawing room where guests lose a happy hour to good magazines, all overseen by owners Vittoria and Ken, who greet you by name, stay up late for delayed arrivals, and send breakfast to your door in a little basket.
- Philadelphia, USAWhy it's cosy
Tucked into a beautifully preserved 18th-century mansion half a block from Washington Square, this quietly charming Philadelphia inn rewards history-minded guests with handsomely furnished rooms, warm staff, fresh-baked afternoon cookies, and a breakfast that stretches well beyond the continental, though those on upper floors should note there is no lift, the Wi-Fi can be unreliable, and some rooms suffer from noise from a neighbouring building.
