The Spotlight on La Reserve Bed and Breakfast

Charming 1800s Elegance in the Heart of Philly

La Reserve Bed and Breakfast is a cozy and historic escape in downtown Philadelphia, just steps from the lively Rittenhouse Square and within easy reach of top concert venues. This vintage-inspired B&B blends 19th-century style with modern comforts like free Wi-Fi and air-conditioned rooms. With its unique décor, grand piano parlor, and family-style breakfast setting, it offers a truly one-of-a-kind stay for music fans looking for something more personal than a chain hotel.

Why Concert-goers love it

Location is everything — and La Reserve nails it. You're a short walk or quick cab ride from major music halls and theaters. The B&B’s quiet, relaxed atmosphere makes it ideal for winding down after a loud night out. While late check-in isn't specifically advertised, the concierge service is helpful and friendly, and the luggage storage comes in handy if you're catching a show before your room is ready. Bonus: No street-facing club noise to keep you up.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a unique and memorable stay
  • Solo travelers catching a once-in-a-lifetime gig
  • Couples turning their concert night into a romantic weekend
  • Fans who prefer a quiet retreat after the encore
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want charm and comfort

Food and Drink Options

While there’s no on-site restaurant, guests enjoy a free, homemade breakfast in a chandelier-lit dining room — perfect for late risers after a long night out. The B&B is also surrounded by top dining spots like Parc, Devon Seafood, and Rouge, all within walking distance and ideal for pre-show dinners or post-show bites. Rooms with full kitchens are also available in select units, giving you the option to whip up your own snacks or late-night meals.

Nightlife Options

Though La Reserve itself is serene, you're just minutes from some of Philly’s best nightlife. Whether it’s live music at nearby venues or cocktails at lounges around Rittenhouse Square, it’s easy to keep the night going. If you're in the mood for something more low-key, the hotel offers a smaller lounge with a TV and comfy armchairs for wind-down time.

What People Say

Guests rave about the location, calling it “perfect for walking to everything” and “ideal for concert nights.” The historic charm and “homey atmosphere” are frequently praised, as well as the friendly staff and cleanliness. Travelers also highlight the spacious rooms and artistic decor as standout features that elevate the overall experience.

Areas for Improvement

The building’s lack of elevators means it's not ideal for those with mobility issues, as rooms are only accessible by stairs. Some guests mention that the vintage furniture leans more “quirky” than luxurious — but that’s all part of the charm for most.

The Bottom Line

A peaceful, vintage-inspired Philly stay with modern perks and a location that puts you steps from the city's best concert experiences.

Athena, New Cumberland, visiting The Met Philadelphia Wed, 24 July 2019

Reminded me so much of my own home. A little run down, but that can be said for every single bit of Philadelphia I saw. I think it added to the homey feeling. Spacious room. Very clean. Firm mattress. Each member of the staff we encountered was friendly. They answered our questions, made good suggestions, and helped us avoid getting lost in the city. I've had better continental breakfasts but the cooked breakfast was tasty if a little small. The breakfast chef has a great personality. I don't frequent Philly but I will be looking to stay here on my next visit.

Liked: The staff were friendly and helpful.
Disliked: Continental breakfast was meh. Cooked breakfast was much better but too small.

Margaret G, Ithaca New York, visiting Tower Theater Upper Darby Tue, 27 January 2015

La Reserve is a very lovely Bed and Breakfast. The staff at La Reserve helped me find my way around Philadelphia. The breakfast on Saturday was delicious. I had a wonderful visit and was able to attend a concert at the Tower Theater in Upper Darby.

Liked: Spacious, beautiful bedroom at an affordable price.
Disliked: Too many attractions nearby and not enough time.

Great location. Accommodations need a...

Liked: Location, location, location!
Disliked: Limited lighting in the bedroom due to a blown fuse. Did not have tv for 2 of our 3 nights and although our vacation was not based on tv, we were told by all those who knew we were going to Philly to make sure we were back at our accommodations before dark because the city is very different at night. So, we had planned for family movie night but it didn’t happen due to no tv. Also, the mat just outside the shower was dirty and our reservation was for 3 people and yet only 2 towels found in the room and no additional sheets for the pull out found either. Both of these were attainable upon request but it was just odd that it wasn’t already present.

Liked: Good location on a quiet street. Continental breakfast during the week was more than adequate, and the weekend full breakfasts were delicious.

Liked: There was a noticeable difference between the weekday breakfast, which was pretty mediocre, and the much better quality of the breakfast over the weekend.
Disliked: There was no clarity or justification regarding the room pricing. I was charged nearly $100 more per night for a room that was half the size of my friend's. When I inquired at the front desk, they apologized but couldn’t offer any explanation—only that the owner sets the prices. The room is also not very clean.
