The hotel needs to be updated. No safe in room and furniture and fixtures are a bit dated. The staff was very nice and helpful.

Omni William Penn Hotel
Stayed here for one night when we went to the Sabrina Carpenter concert at PPG Paints Arena & it’s a great location, beautiful hotel, and it’s clean & safe. It also has the most comfortable beds (the pillows are AMAZING it felt like sleeping on actual clouds) out of any hotel I’ve ever been to.

DoubleTree by Hilton Pittsburgh - Green Tree
The menu was fresh. It was great to have N omelette chef but they only made one omelette at a time. A number of items ran out and they did not replenish them.

Joinery Hotel Pittsburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton
The 1/3 lights in our room were broken, which was unfortunate. Also we were missing lotion and only had 1 full towel. We loved it here I just think the ball was dropped a little on in room amenities
