Pittsburgh Hotels with Pools

We asked for city view and our room was on the 20th floor. Gorgeous view! The room was clean, everything we needed was provided at a reasonable price. The pool on the 4th floor with a view of the iconic yellow bridge was fantastic. Every staff member we spoke with was friendly and helpful, with great pointers for restaurants. The next time we go to Pittsburgh we will be staying here again.

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.

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.

We met our kids there for the Elton John concert at PNC Park . I booked a year in advance at Cambria Downtown thinking it was close but far enough away fro immediate crowds. I’ll address the negatives immediately, but continue reading because it has a good end. Thank you I usually choose a hotel that has an indoor heated pool , a hot tub is a bonus , Cambria had both! Next is as mentioned above , location , close but not in the thick of things, Parking availability is important so our car can be left at hotel without concern, again Cambria met my criteria , things are good so far . Now , Upon arrival to Hotel there was much construction building and road so getting there was confusing , once we pull on to the Drop off area , their parking lot was closed and being maintained, we were instructed to use the parking lot up the road and tell the attendant that we were hotel guests , well that didn’t matter at all it was still 6.50 to park , the attendant was only there til 3 , so the parking lot was ‘open air ‘ no security, no responsibility on their behalf. Next we try to get checked in … cannot til 4 , no exceptions , so we hung around the lobby , bar was not open so no food or beverage available. We check out where the pool is see the hot tub , things look alright , 4 o’clock comes we check in get settled decide to go for a swim , the pool was freezing ( not even 70 degree) and the whirlpool/ hot tub had not been working for about two weeks. YES WE UNDERSTAND things happen beyond our control , but our expectations had been crushed and would have never happened if these issues were mentioned on the Hotel Site or the Booking sites , plus I’m signed up for text and emails , but no mention of the construction, the parking, or hot tub malfunction. Just communicated to us prior to our visit . Now transportation becomes an issue because we are no longer in a designated Hotel parking area. Cabs are not readily available as you may think, the Hotel stated it offered shuttle service within a 3mile radius , turns out that there’s only ONE GUY who doesn’t come on til 1-2 O’clock in the afternoon. NOW for the GOOD STUFF. The immediate folks that we interacted with couldn’t have been nicer and more accommodating! JOHN the one shuttle driver was SUPER NICE , SO POLITE, communication was key , JOHN was WONDERFUL! He was a key part to turning our stay around to be greater than expected . Also OSCAR was head of food and beverage , he too was very accommodating offered to drive us around in between all his other duties, and Fun! A great sense of humor . Than there’s DEB the manager she was so helpful , she apologized for our inconvenience ( which wasn’t necessary) she had and employee turn up the heat in the pool since the hot tub was not working . She went above and beyond to try to make things right , and they weren’t really wrong , there was just need for better communication, in regard to the websites so that people could be informed of what was happeni

Perfect location if you are attending an event in the North Shore area! You step outside of the hotel and are right outside of the People’s Gate for PNC Park or 10 minute walk to Lombardi. We came for a show at Stage AE & were so happy about the quick walk to and from the venue. Additionally, you can quickly walk down by the river or take a stroll into downtown. Breakfast in the morning is one of the best services I have had at an RI. The man who sets up the service is a straight hustler & makes sure everything is top tier (sausage patties were delicious). Everything was fresh and hot. If you are parking in the lot, watch out for nails. There is a construction site across the street and we left the parking lot with 2 nails in our tires. (Note we stayed Nov 2023) Just want to say Julian at the front desk was so nice! Extremely knowledgeable about the area.

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.

The hotel is relatively quiet and includes breakfast, which is collected at ten o'clock. The room is large, with refrigerator and microwave. Please note that the hotel does not provide mineral water. The service is generally good.

Beautiful, spacious and a grand looking hotel! Though it’s a little old but it’s well kept and clean. Hotel lobby is located on the 25th floor. View from our room was awesome too!

This Holiday Inn Express is a dump, every other Holiday Inn Express has been great except this one and apparently management oversight doesn't care as this is another very similar review from others that did not care much for this hotel. Filthy, had to change rooms due to the mold and mildew in the bathroom shower and the sewer odor on the floor. New room on a different floor was slightly cleaner until you see all the hair on the bathroom floor and no fan, after a 1 hot shower, the ceiling is dripping with water. Bought clorex wipes to clean the area. Found a dirty shirt from a previous guest on the floor underneath an ottoman. $22/night for parking is a ripoff and the gate to get into the lot is broke. The entry door in the back near the parking lot, that is supposed to open with your room card, is propped open night and day, must be broke and can be a security issue. Stairwell had trash in it. Couldn't wait to be out of the room.

Pleasant location
