Top Squirrel Hill Hotel Reviews

Springhill Suites by Marriott Pittsburgh North Shore

8/10 Good

"The room itself was very clean, nice, and well maintained, and overall we were happy with everything else about our stay. Unfortunately, the bed was extremely uncomfortable—it was honestly as hard as a rock. The pillows weren’t comfortable either, which made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. If the beds and pillows were more comfortable, this would have been a great stay!"

Wyndham Grand Pittsburgh Downtown

8/10 Good

"I like this hotel, I stayed several times. There are many rooms 20 floors or so. Nobody talks in the hallways when I stayed so it was quiet. But one can easily hear conversations right outside the door. Small room but nicest bed and pillows! I am a frequent traveller, I appreciate the oh so comfortable bed. The view of the river is phenomenal, it's like bird's eyeview of Pittsburgh. Love it. King rooms have microwave, double beds don't. It stays 68 degrees cold no matter how thermostat is set, I fix this by opening the curtains during daytime to get some warmth in the room. If you look closely behind appliances, dust is evident. The water pressure is good. Lobby is grand, have a festive feel. Most receptionist and housekeepers are nice. The hotel being next to point state park is unbeatable perk!"

Drury Plaza Hotel Pittsburgh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was standard fare but plentiful. Enjoyed the jacuzzi and pool. Appreciated the guest laundry, though only uses quarters and not credit cards. Walking distance to Amtrak train station. Allows storage of luggage after checkout , though need to get them before they secure the entrances to guest-only at 8pm"
