The Renaissance Pittsburgh Hotel Review

They don't have restrooms in the lobby. The front desk directed us to use the restroom on the second floor, but when we got up there, we found that it was closed for cleaning. In a lesser hotel, this might have been acceptable, but at the Renaissance, this type of information should have been relayed to us at the front desk. (Aren't cleanings part of a routine schedule?) From the second floor, we ventured up to the third and found a restroom halfway down a long hall. There were no signs posted, so the discovery of the restroom was really just guesswork. It took us twenty minutes total to find a working toilet in this hotel. Please save yourself the agony and go to the Fairmont down the street.

Great view of the river at a great price. Restaurant is fantastic. Could not be better located.

Very classy. Has an elegant feel and you're located right in the action of downtown Pittsburgh.

High ceiling feels nice and roomy. Sometimes hard to pull up to front to unload. Clean rooms and lobby, no 'old' smell to air conditioner, fresh smelling.

Loved it. Great view and value. Comfortable and clean room. Awesome service! Great night out on the town after new baby.

Amazing view. Really nice location right across the water from the statiums. Great staff.

Eclectic, warm, inviting and clean. Would stay there again

Very nice service, little bit of a wait, good drinks.

Excellent hotel, the decoration is Renaissance, the rooms very well furnished, the view from the windows of the rooms are sensational.

I'm a very frequent (100+ night per year) Marriott customer and came here for a tour as a potential wedding reception venue. It's beautiful, and in an awesome location. I'm sure the rooms are great - this is an excellent representative of the Renaissance brand.

Great hotel with easy access to downtown Pittsburgh and the baseball stadium. Good service, comfy beds.

I was very happy with the room and their service. The front desk people were attentive and even offered some nearby places I could stop at during my visit.

While I was just there for the restaurant, the hotel looks very nice on the inside and the staff was very friendly.

First time ever being at the Renaissance Hotel and it was awesome. All the rooms I went in were super nice, the staff was super friendly and it had by far the nicest and cleanest restrooms of any hotel I've ever seen.

Great hotel. Would happily stay here every time I m in Pitt

Excellent service, employees were friendly and helpful

Great location and service. Elevators were working intermittently while we were there (occasional 10 min waits) and the tap in the shower was a little off. But honestly, nothing that would make me not go back.

The room was clean and the staff was friendly but hardly needed. The beds were so comfortable. I would definitely recommend it for anyone. The only downfall was that there was a wedding party on our floor and they were loud in the halls at night.

The fire alarm kept going off. And the bed was uncomfortable.

Beautiful hotel with friendly staff. Tom upgraded me to a corner room with a perfect view of the bridge and river. A great example for other hotels.

Beds were very comfortable! Dinner food wasnt great in the restaurant. Burgers were served with McDonald's like fries, unacceptable! $27 for a breakfast buffet is crazy.

My stay at the Renaissance lasted two night , Thursday night check-in and departed early Saturday morning. I have been a quest of the Renaissance maybe four time over a ten year span. The valet parking service remains very good, the room was clean and comfortable along with free Wi-Fi, HBO, refrigerator and coffee or tea.
The lobby is still a comfortable area with many sitting arrangements. Braddock's restaurant offered exception service but the short rib perogies were disappointing. The lobby had an exceptional wine bar at one time and I was surprised to see that a plywood wall was in its place with two HDTV's. The plywood clashed with the soaring dome and marble craftsmanship. The only other negative note was finding the remote in my room

luxury hotel. great downtown location. very comfortable bed. friendly, engaging staff. very well maintained.

Very nice hotel. Love the decor and simplicity associated with it
