Old school charm! Wonderful experience! The Hotel DuPont is a lovely hotel that harkens back to the Gilded Age! Very well maintained with a friendly and helpful staff. The restaurant is very good (and elegant) and it is walking distance to all the fun bars and restaurants on Market Street.

Housekeeping came by around 930am We told them we would be leaving around 1030. They really never came back. We saw someone who gave us towels but that was it.

This is not a 5-star hotel! This hotel has long since passed its prime! It's probably the only so-called 5-star hotel that charges $437.90(incidentals) for a single night's stay! What a scandal!

The property was overpriced given the condition of the bathroom. It had not been updated since the 80s. Plus the maid staff was not as professional as you want when staying in a $600 plus a night hotel.
