Magestic! I stayed here for 2 nights since I was interviewing in the area. Perfect location but even more perfect ambiance. You feel special in a place with so much history and charm.

Oldest hotel in the city celebrating its 98th anniversary this year. 2012 Presidential Ball took place here. Most importantly, very comfortable rooms and everything at your front steps.

Located in the heart of the downtown business district in Pittsburgh, this renowned hotel is a historic landmark . Check out the Retreat to Romance Package.

Great rooms, friendly professional staff , and ideal location. Terrific historic hotel to stay in.

Impressive place; it looks like many Pittsburgh buildings and is combined with an elegant and historical interior. Christmas tree is mighty formidable, too.

Chip Bradford

Room was large, nicely decorated, and comfortable . Location is great, if not ideal. Staff was friendly and professional. It's a grand old hotel !

James Underberg

Nice older hotel in downtown Pittsburgh but my room was the smallest hotel room I have EVER stayed in ! Literally a bed and desk with no room to walk between the two ! They would not move me - beware

Nora Sydow

The guest room windows open. So nice to have some fresh air in my room. And sign up for the free loyalty program to get free in-room wifi !

Chele Rocks

A real, grand hotel . Lovely lobby bar with board games and people watching .

Corey MakRush is the Czar to plan exquisite events at this superb place. In the 30+ years I've known him here, he's never lost his focus on putting guests first. He knows best principles of elegance.

Dan Raven

The Seared Diver Scallops at the lobby bar are a must try! I've had them 3 or 4 times. They're excellent!

Staff is amazing. Service is get and everyone is friendly during the anthrocon block.

Went for high tea . Sweet part was ok, but the bread on the sandwiches felt stale, especially the rye . Overall, not bad, but nit comparable to the proper High Tea in London.

Pleasant experience. Nice beds. Good quality towels! And check out the old mail drop.

The Tap Room is a bit over priced but they might just have the best burger in town !

Nice hotel , but the forget the class they are competing within. Consider the Fairmont.

No outlets near the bed to charge phone etc. I had to unplug the clock radio and lamp to use the outlets.

Bring a power strip. There are not enough outlets.

Nice large rooms , but the entire floor smells like a carcinogen filled ashtray. I did hear they're remodeling which may fix it ...

Ana Witaszczyk

These beds have the fluffiest pillows and comforters
