PHILADELPHIA-Hersha Hospitality Trust has acquired the 111-room Rittenhouse Hotel, its 44,000 square feet of retail/restaurant/office space, and an adjacent 300-space parking garage for $42 million.

Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels orchestrated the sale on behalf of the seller, The Rittenhouse Development Company. The hotel by itself was valued at $23.9 million, or $215,000 per key. Opened in 1989, it has historically produced the highest revenue per available room (RevPar) in the Philadelphia market.
