Allegheny County Hotels with Bars

The location of the hotel is very good, about 15 kilometers away from the airport, American style decoration, comfortable and warm, the heating sound is a bit big, the bed is big and very comfortable, standard breakfast, apples are delicious, there is a maple tree outside the restaurant, there are stones under the tree Table and stone benches, and a barbecue box, sitting in the dining hall and eating breakfast looking at the beautiful scenery outside the window.

I was a bit upset about a simple amenity that this hotel failed to offer. I went to the front desk to ask about bottled water. There were two complimentary bottles in the room that me and my partner consumed. We wanted more water. When I asked the front desk about bottled water the lady said none was available and the gift shop has some for sale but it wasn’t open. There are no vending machines on sight either. Luckily the bar was open but that water was not filtered but I had to drink it because I had no other option. I don’t understand why they could not have given me a bottle of the complimentary water. I was even willing to pay for it. Needless to say I won’t be staying at a double tree anymore. I prefer the Marriott anyway.

The front desk is very friendly, easy to find a restaurant in the area. The room is quite, I can sleep well.

Checking in was pleasant and easy. The view of the river from the room was really beautiful. The lobby was comfy and inviting as a place to lounge or work. There were tables and outlets suited for anything needed. We stayed 2 nights to see a show at the comedy club and had no trouble walking there and back. It felt really safe. We didn’t eat breakfast there but it was available. There were other places so close by. A really nice stay.

I was pleasantly surprised by this small hotel. I liked that it was in a mansion and within walking distance to Phipps Conservatory and the Carnegie museums (both about a 15 minute walk from the hotel). The lobby area is beautifully furnished. Check-in was fast with friendly staff to help with any questions. There is a full bar on site which serves drinks and a few small munchies but no restaurant or room service was available. The bartender was kind enough to give me some help with the local food options. She even went so far as to draw me a small map so I could easily locate the restaurants. (Thanks so much for the extra effort. It was greatly appreciated!) The walk to nearby Shadyside was only about 10 minutes. There were restaurants and bars available plus some shops. The area is safe so I didn't feel uncomfortable walking in late evening. The rooms were clean and modern with standard amenities. I did like that housekeeping service was optional. At check-in, you were asked to chose the type of housekeeping service you would like during your stay. I was only staying in the hotel for two nights so opted out of housekeeping service. My only real complaint was the lack of parking for the hotel. There is off street parking which is good since the hotel sits on a busy street, but the amount of parking is very limited. I only saw eight actual parking spaces. Three of these spaces were not available due to on-site construction. The overflow parking is basically anywhere along the perimeter of the property next to the fence. This is not enough parking for the amount of rooms available. I didn't appreciate having to park in a location where my car could easily by damaged. With the exception of the parking, I enjoyed my stay at the hotel and would stay again when visiting Pittsburgh.

The hotel itself is good, the location is in the city center, it is very convenient to walk around and eat. Parking can stop at the parking building across the road, but the hotel charges $30 a day for the night, the parking lot price is $28 overnight, but the second day when I left, I charged $12, I suggest you go directly to the parking lot. In addition, when booking, it is said that breakfast is included, but the order that is ultimately generated does not include breakfast. I hope that Trip.com can be consistent in this regard.

The rooms were clean spacious, included a kitchenette, and well cared for. The staff were all friendly and accomodating, including the desk intake, the breakfast help and room cleaners. We stayed four days and I was sorry to leave.

It was clean and the staff was super nice. They aren't trained for the bar or restaurant area, as they use the front desk people to work these areas too. Food wasn't prepared as to what the menu says and none of them know how to mix drinks. Literally, they don't know. They'll tell you that. One guy working said we can't order food because he was the only person there. Breakfast food was just ok if you like rubber eggs or eggs in a weird liquid. Other choices were good though. It was hit and miss. Rooms were clean and spacious. Nice addition to have the sectional couch in rooms. All in all, we would stay there again. It's more of a convenience hotel. Don't expect it to be a resort. It has potential to be phenomenal if they'd have the food and bar corrected.

This is the first and only time I've written a review of a Marriott. I'm doing so because it was that bad. Literally, THAT BAD. To start, I am a Platinum member for many years. So I am very used to very good service at Marriotts. Today, it was the exact opposite. This weekend, Taylor Swift was in town. This made things busy at this hotel. And hectic. And full. And also, most notably, not a surprise. Taylor has been coming to Pittsburgh for almost a year. However, this large hotel seemed confused, confounded and dazed at the number of paid guests who showed up today. They left a very inexperienced ”supervisor” in charge of the hotel and the result was a cluster. This was likely their busiest weekend of 2023 so an actual manager and extra housekeeping staff would have been appropriate. Neither were in place. We tried to check in at 230, which as a Platinum member would never be an issue anywhere. Here, they said they had no rooms. They suggested we get ready for the concert in the lobby bathroom. Yes, of the hotel. So, we did that. We did it with no apology, no emotion, literally zero human communication that recognized what a mess this was. We paid for a suite, but instead got ready in a communal bathroom with hundreds of other misplaced guests. At midnight, we returned to the hotel and tried to get a key for the second room we had already paid for. We were yelled at to get in the regular line, as no Marriott Elite service was available. When I asked what the rate would be since they were checking us in well after midnight, ”Chris” sneered and said he wasn't ”in the mood” as he had already been yelled at today. I'm sure he had been, and that part stinks for him. At 1AM, there was still a line out the door of people trying to check in for rooms they paid for starting hours ago. This hotel is to be avoided. Go to one of the hotels across the street.

In a moderately priced hotel, the bed is not made and cleaned every day. If you want new towels or sanitary products the next day, you can ask the front desk and they will be delivered in time. The room is big enough, the sound insulation is not good, the advantage is that it is close to Pittsburgh. There are discounts for accommodation and breakfast, but there is no breakfast at the nearby Starbucks. If there is not enough parking space at the entrance, you can park in the opposite parking lot, and the hotel will pay for it for you. All in all it was good, no inconvenience.
