If not from big cities, very hard to find the property. Parking garage is a bit sketchy, but was cheap for the stay. Hotel is beautiful inside, you do have to go to the 25th floor to check in, and there’s only two working elevators. The two elevators are my main complaint, waited 25 minutes and everyone that stopped was full, had to walk down 20 flights of stairs to check out on time 🤓

What a strange hotel this is. The registration desk is on the 25th floor of the building, and the signage directing you to it is less than prominent. Aside from this, the hotel is fine, the room spacious and comfortable, and the location is great for anyone doing just about anything in Downtown Pittsburgh. Our only real complaint is about the valet parking service. These people are pretty incompetent. We had to go looking for someone to park our car despite the fact that we were standing on the sidewalk next to our car in full view of the desk. I guess the man staffing the desk had more important business to attend to.

If you like a clean room don’t stay here!!!! Yes the location is great but that’s where it ends. For the money I paid a the cleanliness of the room, horrible. We were a party of 4 adults there for a birthday trip. We got back to the room late. An realized how dirty the room was. The pull out couch not clean the sheet hair on them. Carpet dirty, the sink still had coffee in it. So it was 11:30pm so late. We got moved after a staff member checked the other room to make sure it was clean. NOT, we found food, a lot of dust an even an eye mask near the pillow area of the mattress. The pull out again was dirty a the floors were gross. You also have to check in on the 25th floor so that was a little inconvenient in some ways. I have stayed at better for less money.

I’ve stayed at Embassy Suites in other cities, but the Pittsburgh location didn’t compare. Front desk staff was not friendly, the bar was VERY understaffed, although the bartender did his best. The front desk is on the 25th floor and i wandered the entrance of the building trying to figure out where to go, the valet guys did not say anything. Just a weird set up with no info or signage. And the area around the hotel was super sketchy. Room was decent, but I’ll never stay here again.

I recently stayed at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Pittsburgh and had an overall positive experience. The hotel itself is fantastic, with spacious and comfortable rooms that felt more like a small apartment than a typical hotel room. The layout was perfect, offering a separate living area, a well-appointed bedroom, and a modern bathroom. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed to ensure a comfortable stay. The service was another highlight of my visit. The staff went above and beyond to make sure my needs were met, from the smooth check-in process to the convenient valet who parked my car. The daily complimentary breakfast was a nice touch, with a variety of options that catered to different tastes and dietary preferences. However, while the hotel and its amenities were top-notch, the surrounding neighborhood left a bit to be desired. It wasn’t the most inviting area, especially in the evenings. Although I didn’t experience any issues, it’s something to keep in mind if you plan to venture out on foot. That said, the hotel’s location is still convenient for accessing downtown Pittsburgh and its attractions, especially if you have a vehicle or plan to use rideshares. In summary, if you’re looking for a comfortable stay with excellent service in Pittsburgh, the Embassy Suites is a great choice. Just be aware that the neighborhood isn’t the best, so plan accordingly for your outings.

Staff in dining very rude. Met with room service, said good morning, no respond. Room was not cleaned for three days. Ask for clean towels one night they never brought it to us. During breakfast, I was in line to get some omilet for breakfast , the guy told me he was finished for the day. We ask for help with our l’otage cause the house keeper mistakenly threw away our siren wrap, but they won’t help us. This is the worst hotel me and my family have ever been to. I’m sorry to put it this way, but it was our experience.

The Embassy Suites in Pittsburgh is very nice. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the hotel is conveniently located in Downtown. When first trying to check in, however, no one was tending the desk, and I was standing out there for over five minutes before someone came out to help.

Loved our stay. Room was spacious and clean, we had an awesome view and we greatly appreciated the free breakfast. Location was close to PNC stadium and lots of other attractions and restaurants. Parking was also easy; while we didn’t do valet, the parking lot was very close by and easy to find a spot. Highly recommend!
