"There was a time when “apartment hotel” meant a bland, beige, blank canvas of a place, in some godforsaken office park out in the suburbs. Then again, that was before boutique hotels, and before the modern trend of apartment-sharing. And it’s night and day from what you’ll find at Roost Midtown, a boutique-style, dare we say <em>luxurious</em> apartment hotel right next to Philadelphia’s City Hall. Here Morris Adjmi Architects, familiar from hotels like the Wythe in Williamsburg, have turned two floors of the 1920s-vintage Packard Building into the apartment-hotel of your dreams, complete with Instagram-worthy interiors and genuinely residential-quality comforts." - Tablet Hotels
