The Rittenhouse Spa & Club

The Rittenhouse Spa & Club occupies the third floor of The Rittenhouse hotel, with views over Rittenhouse Square Park. It operates as a hotel spa with both day-pass access and membership, so non-guests can book a treatment without staying overnight, though reservations are required.

The treatment menu covers facials, massage, body treatments and a signature collection, plus a salon for hair and nails. The current signature offering is the Autumn Bliss Signature Massage, a seasonal massage treatment. Beyond the spa itself, the facility includes a fitness center, an atrium pool, and space for yoga and movement classes, giving it more of a club feel than a strictly treatment-only spa.

Membership is also available for those who want ongoing access to the spa, fitness studio and pool, along with perks like complimentary services, food and beverage credits, and discounts. For a one-off visit, though, the day-pass and reservation route is the way in.

It sits in the upscale price tier and tends to draw solo travelers and couples. Hours run 9am to 5pm most weekdays, with later closing at 7pm on Fridays and Saturdays, and a 9am to 5pm Sunday schedule. Given the central Rittenhouse Square address, it works well for a spa visit paired with a day exploring that part of Philadelphia.
