The hotel is in a prime location for exploring downtown Pittsburgh with multiple restaurants and bars around and it’s near the waterfront. The speakeasy is really nice and I enjoyed having drinks and dinner at Palm Court. Highly recommend this hotel. I will be staying here everytime I visit.

Beautiful Hotel
My wife and I stayed for one night for her birthday and it was great. The hotel is beautiful and clean. The staff is wonderful, so friendly and kind. There was a lot to do near by the hotel and inside it! If you didn’t want to leave the hotel there was no reason to. Will definitely stay again.

Favorite Hotel
We have been staying at this hotel many times, and it is my favorite in Pittsburgh. Amazing ambiance, great location and service. I would say that the rooms are starting to show some wear and tear, but it is still the best hotel for me in Pittsburgh.
