Fodor's Review:

Topped by the red neon letters PSFS (for the former tenant, Pennsylvania Savings Fund Society), this 1930s building was the country's first skyscraper in the ultramodern international style. With an attitude that is decidedly contemporary, the hotel has guest rooms equipped with cordless phones and flat-screen televisions. There are three levels of concierge rooms with a private library and lounge. The lobby lounge and Sole Food, an eclectic, fusion seafood restaurant, both have art deco touches. A 15,000-square-foot state-of-the-art fitness center includes a sauna, steam room, and indoor lap pool. Be sure to check out the 33rd floor for sweeping views of the city and beyond.

Reviewed by rufkd from Washington, DC on 4/7/07
can't tell you how grey this place is, the outside of the Wanamaker building, the carpets, the staff, everything is just looks like a black and white movie and not a very good one, as the views from the windows looks like Newark. Stayed at Days Inns in Florida with more charm and staff generally very inept.
