Top Pittsburgh Hotel Reviews

Drury Plaza Hotel Pittsburgh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"This place was amazing! From the look of the place to how clean it was to how friendly the staff and other people were. The pool area was great with the hot tub. I will definitely stay here again and have already recommended it to a family member. Parking is a little pricey but you can get free dinner and breakfast."

DoubleTree by Hilton Pittsburgh - Green Tree

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and the staff was friendly. It was a bit to navigate through the hotel but it was fine. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet."

Wyndham Grand Pittsburgh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was wonderful except te temperature control in the lobby. It was insanely cold to a fault. There is no reason for it to be like an ice locker and believe me, I'd rather be cold than hot but this was too much. Other than that the place was really nice."

Cambria Hotel Pittsburgh - Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The customer service was absolutely stellar. I accidentally left my debit card in the room & didn’t miss it until we had checked out. I called the hotel & they had someone from housekeeping look for it & find it. This was the most friendly and accessible staff I have ever dealt with. The rooms were impeccable."

Joinery Hotel Pittsburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Welcoming staff was welcoming. Maintenance staff was great. The bartender and restaurant waitstaff were also very friendly and the drinks were delicious and I did enjoy the grilled cheese. The hotel itself is very clean and aesthetically appealing. The bed was super comfortable and the shower had great water pressure. I did not like that the phone was across the room. There is also no place to really hang or place your clothes. The rooms are very small, and the bathroom door did not stay open. I had difficulty understanding how to access the restaurant...breakfast is on one level, lunch on another, Lobby, RB, Mezz...and when I requested assistance, the woman at the front desk was less than helpful. All that said, for the price, Joinery is a nice hotel and in a great location, near everything."

Kimpton Hotel Monaco Pittsburgh by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely amazing stay! I originally came to Pittsburgh for a work trip and loved this hotel so much that I immediately rebooked it for an upcoming trip with my family. The design, artwork, and little unexpected details throughout the hotel make it feel like an experience, not just a place to stay. I especially loved the complimentary postcards you can actually write and send from the hotel. Such a thoughtful touch! Beautiful, unique, memorable, and easily one of my favorite hotel stays. Can’t wait to come back with my family!"

Hilton Garden Inn Pittsburgh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Women at front desk was very friendly, room clean and a great view of the city."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Pittsburgh West - Greentree by IHG

8/10 Good

"I stayed here for two nights and it was very pleasant. Breakfast was OK, but the coffee line got backed up because of some odd machines they decided to use. The room was very nice and clean and the shower was great… no problem with hot water and a nice grab bar. Elevators were a bit slow during the morning rush, but otherwise just fine. It was very close (10 minute drive) to Mount Washington, where my daughter lives, so it was really convenient. The hotel had lots of parking available. I’ve stayed at a few other places around Pittsburgh and I’ll probably stay here the next time I go."

Pittsburgh Marriott City Center

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome place"
