Top Downtown Pittsburgh Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Pittsburgh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was clean and had a perfect location. "

DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel & Suites Pittsburgh Downtown

8/10 Good

"Hotel was very clean for it being under construction. But with that some of the rooms had been updated, which were amazing, but certain amenities were left put and we were not warned ahead of time. Now the hotel was amazing in getting us the mini fridge and microwave but a heads up would of been appreciated. Especially because if we did not call down and ask for them we probably would not have gotten them. A very minor inconvenince, but minor things like that are usually why we stay at Hiltons because they are always ontop of it so it was a let down to see that they werent this time. Will be going back once full renovations are complete for sure. Staff was amazing, polite, and helpful. (The free cookies are always a plus) The parking situation was rough but understandable being back to back games for the Pens. But bring your patient pants. The staff do amazing but they can only go so fast so let them do their jobs - They are taking care of you and your vehicle in the end."
