Kimpton Hotel Palomar Philadelphia

As the only LEED Gold–certified hotel in the City of Brotherly Love, Hotel Palomar Philadelphia, a Kimpton Hotel offers an earth-friendly setting for meetings in the heart of town. It opened in 2009 following a $92.5 million renovation of its art-deco landmark building. Guests arrive around the corner from Rittenhouse Square to find 230 guest rooms and suites cushioned in soft earth tones and enlivened by local art and tasteful splashes of color.

They also find 6,000 square feet of meeting space: a penthouse ballroom on the twenty-fifth floor, three conference rooms on the twenty-fourth, and a high-tech boardroom on the second. Along with the restaurant Square 1683—where artful design meets an organic menu by the celebrated chef Guillermo Tellez—a daily manager's reception, fitness center, and in-room spa services put the icing on the cake.
