The Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia opened in August 2019 on the top dozen floors of the 60-story Comcast Technology Center in Center City, which is now the tallest building in Philadelphia. The 219-room hotel features a 30,000-gallon infinity pool and the highest-situated spa in North America with seven treatment rooms and walls packed with almost 700 pounds of healing crystals.

The property was named one of the 14 best hotels in Philadelphia last year by Condé Nast Traveler. The Four Seasons was also rated one of the world's 100 top luxury hotels in 2020 by Forbes, becoming the first Philly hotel to receive the publication's prestigious five-star designation.

La Mamounia in Marrakech, Morocco was rated the top hotel in the world this year by Condé Nast Traveler. The Gwen in Chicago was named the best hotel in the United States and came in at No. 8 overall. 

Other Philadelphia hotels that were named to the publication's ranking of the best in the Mid-Atlantic region were the Kimpton Hotel Monaco (No. 3), The Rittenhouse (No. 4), The Study at University City (No. 6) and AKA University City (No. 9). 

Over 800,000 voters weighed in with their favorite hotels when the publication's 34th annual survey was conducted this past April and May. Hotels were rated based upon their rooms, service, food, design, location, value, activities and facilities.
