This was our first time staying at this hotel. My daughter goes to Pitt so we visit here often. The hotel and room was nice, clean and quiet. The valet parking was easy and worth it, considering you have to pay for parking anyway. We will definitely stay here again next time.

We enjoyed our two-night stay at this Hilton near several universities and Schenley Park, where we were participating in a car show. This hotel was very convenient to numerous restaurants as well, including a Primanti Bros. The rooms were very quiet. The staff was efficient. The buffet breakfast met our expectations. I would book this hotel again.

Not great but okay for a night or two
Need to find a place to crash for two nights to help my son to move in his new apartment. Despite the high ratings that I saw, the hotel is quite average. It looks old, feels old, and smells old. The bed is too soft to give any decent support. No one showed up to clean the room the next day. Reserved a king bed but received a queen. Not exactly what I expected.
