I booked this hotel super last minute (like the day before my arrival), so I unfortunately didn't get some stellar rate or anything. It was okay, but definitely NOT worth the amount I paid. Also, I'm not sure exactly how close this is to the downtown area of Pittsburgh, but it seemed a little out of the way. That wasn't... More

We visited Mt Lebanon, PA where the Crowne Plaza is actually located to attend a family event, staying from June 6 through June 9.. When I called the hotel to make my reservation I was told that the best room rate was $134 per night. I asked about including breakfast and was told that the rate would then be $195... More

Dear Tony D, Thank you for your feedback on your recent visit. I agree with you! $61 is an absurd amount of money for adding breakfast to the room rate! Apparently there is a glitch in our reservation system which caused the pricing situation you described. We are working on identifying the problem so we can get it corrected. We... More

We stayed here following a wedding nearby. The king room was clean, comfortable and spacious with a flat screen TV. We did not eat in the restaurant but did have a couple of beers at the bar - open, clean and friendly service. Overall this hotel is better than most for an overnight stay.

We were driving from St Louis to Philadelphia. Couldn't find pet friendly and quality hotel on 70. Had to go off hwy thru towns but it was worth it. We loved the beds with 2 high quality sheets enclosing blanket. Dog fee $45. High, but could be worse. Great restaurant nearby!

We were in town for a wedding, which was held right in the hotel. The food at the reception was excellent, as was the breakfast buffet each morning (which was an additional cost.) The staff was very helpful and accommodated our request to have adjoining rooms. They also provided a hospitality room for the baby-sitter to stay with the children... More

Stopped in Pittsburgh during my road trip with my dog and chose this hotel that accepted dogs to spend the night. Room was clean, quiet and in a good location - right across a huge shopping mall and plenty of restaurants. My only complaint was the room service food, it could have been much better. Although it's quite far from... More

It was difficult to find a pet friendly, smoke free hotel within a 2 hour range of this hotel. We are very happy that we found this one! And as it turned out, we couldn't be happier. It is about 15 minutes away from the highway, which was annoying. However, it was well worth the ride to get here! We... More

Room size is good but the they are over used and the hotel needs a do over. Checking in was quick but the receptionist was a bit too casual, he said when I asked for a room: "show me your credit card, i will show you the room". Grrrr!

I stayed here on my most recent business trip to Pittsburgh. The beds are absolutely amazing and extremely comfortable. The staff was attentive from the moment I walked in. Rooms were clean and housekeeping was respectful. Place made me feel very comfortable. I wish I could take the bed with me. Great location as well to restaurants and other attractions.
