I loved the location. It was so easy to walk to everything and the parking garage was close and reasonably priced. Be warned though you do need cash for the parking garage- no credit cards accepted. I also loved the host she was sweet and very accommodating. She even made us a yummy brunch after getting in on a a red eye flight even though she certainly didn’t have to!
United States of AmericaWonderful B&B. Maria was attentive and a wonderful host. Even with all of the COVID @d$%&, Maria still took the time to whip up some delicious egg dishes for us in the morning. The building was gorgeous and the room was beautiful. La Reserve was within easy walking distance of the main downtown attractions. We would DEFINITELY stay at La Reserve again.
United States of AmericaThe location was excellent easy to get to the breakfast was well prepared and excellent in presentation and taste.
United States of AmericaThis was the perfect spot for us. We wanted authentic architecture, class and comfort. The pull out bed left much to be desired, but the rest of the experience was perfect.
United States of AmericaLovely, will stay here again next time I visit Philly
United States of AmericaIt's a different experience than going to a hotel. The house is beautiful and my room was comfortable. It's also very well located if you wish to visit the city centre.
GermanyI love this hotel. Breakfast on the weekends is delicious, it’s totally family breakfast style around one table and meeting other interesting travelers. Great atmosphere, great location, love all the rooms I’ve ever stayed in, I always sleep so well, just an ideal little b&b.
SwitzerlandThis is my favorite place to stay in Philly! It’s just wonderful!
United States of AmericaBreakfast was delicious. we got offered a choice of omelette/crepes/waffles. Coffee was very good. Location is perfect for just leaving out the door and start discovering the city.
United States of AmericaIf you’re considering this property, book it now!!! This was our first time staying in a B&B and we weren’t disappointed. While I loved the beautiful historic row houses the comprise the B&B, my two favorite things were the very personable staff and the amazing made-to-order breakfast in the formal dining room. Maria is a kind, attentive and gracious inn keeper with a vast knowledge of the local area. We arrived here hours before check in. Maria not only stored our luggage but she took it to our room. She gave us restaurant recommendations and offered to call to make reservations. The chef is very good. Breakfast on Sunday was wonderful and included made-to-order omelettes or crepes, sausage, bacon, toast, coffee, juice and cereal.

Host Info
Property info
The four story brick house at 1804 Pine Street has had many people pass through it since it was built in the mid 1800’s. When La Reserve’s owner, Beverly Ensor, moved into the house in 1943 with her parents and new born brother, she was just a little girl, her parents, Catherine and Samuel Stark were landlords and shop owners. Her mother managed the rental properties and father ran a grocery store and deli. La Reserve was named after a hotel in Geneva, Switzerland that Beverly had visited and enjoyed, with the same name. She decorated the house with the furniture she grew up with, pieces from family members and antiques. The rooms were named after history, memories and a bit of whimsy. 1806 Pine Street, which has La Reserve's studios and one bedroom suites, was an apartment building that Beverly's mother managed and added to the B&B’s roster in 2007.

Our neighborhood is Rittenhouse Square which is one of the most popular in Philadelphia. It is full of history, has a great local atmosphere. The Park Square is three blocks away as well as the many restaurants and shops. You can walk to just about anywhere one needs to go from our location.
