Offering free WiFi and city views, Mint House at The Divine Lorraine Hotel - Philadelphia is an accommodation set in Philadelphia, just 1.8 km from Temple University and 2 km from Philadelphia Museum of Art. Boasting a bar, the aparthotel is close to several noted attractions, around 1.9 km from Barnes Foundation and around 1.7 km from Pennsylvania Convention Center. The aparthotel has family rooms.

Amazing. Simply fantastic. I worked in hotels; this staff is how I wanted mine. I am humble enough to admit mine was a bar lower. I want the owners to know, that from the janitor to the, housekeeping, reception and so on; you are treated like royalty. That’s your winner. That’s your success. 20 things could’ve gone wrong, and the people you have there, all the things that could go wrong you wouldn’t care and they would work so hard to fix it. Your foundation to you, the owners success is your team. Treat them well, you start having cracks in the foundation you built, you won’t have the loyalty you do, and you will decline in success. Remember, they put you up to. You sit, comfortably, off on holidays because of them. I hope they are paid well; if not; you must give them a raise. Don’t pull the “we may be going to war, the recession” they deserve it. Without them, without the sheer luck of finding that group, you wouldn’t be as popular. Hotel is stunning, but if I was treated poorly; I would’ve rather have packed up and left. Not stay another night and pray for a cancellation to stay one extra night. An amazing surprise happened with the upgrade and I couldn’t have been so shocked and amazed. I nearly cried when I saw the room. I won’t lie, if I was still in the industry and had my own Hotel, I would take the staff. I wouldn’t bat an eye, and I would make sure they were offered a deal they could’ve refuse. They made this weekend amazing. First trip after a major car accident, see if I could handle traveling. They made it successful. My friend who is a widower ( recently ) losing her to lupus (my friend) was made to feel like his life will get better. So hold onto them. All of them. This is coming from someone who thought she lost it all. Morgan
