Cool Building, not so Cool Area

3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Jun 9, 2024
So, this is a mixed review. The place was unique. Pluses -- parking was convenient. The breakfast was good, although I don't understand why it is done as a "to-go" meal. A bit noisy -- our 1st floor room had a heavy-footed upstairs neighbor as well as windows that opened onto an adjacent building's patio where the residents were LOUD for a while...We had hoped to walk to various places from the hotel as it was walkable to much, but the surrounding areas were just too sketchy for us to feel comfortable doing so. That was very disappointing. I would opt to stay elsewhere in Pittsburgh if any of this is impt. to you. Oh, and the bed was kind of soft and the room's lighting was not great....adding to the dark feel of the place.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on your recent stay with us. We are gratified that you enjoyed some aspects of your stay. With regard to our neighborhood, Historic Deutschtown, it is a very diverse and historically significant place with many interesting restaurants and attractions. Residents are rightly proud of the neighborhood, and housing values are quite high. That said, it is an urban neighborhood and it, like downtown Pittsburgh and center cities across the country, and it's wise to use appropriate caution when out and about.

Wonderful historic property in heart of old German Town and Allegheny City. Tons of character and history throughout the property. Michael is a great tour guide as well as keeper of the Monk’s Bar.

Highly recommended over the now prevalent ‘Less Service for More Money’ the corporate hotel industry has used Covid as an excuse to adopt as business models.

Room tip: Free parking what’s not to like about that? Great venue for meetings, weddings and family reunions.

We were very impressed by everyone on the staff -- very helpful and always actively interested in making our stay comfortable and pleasant. The rooms are quite comfortable and one of the best ways to start your day is breakfast al fresco in the refectory courtyard. Location is near downtown, near PNC Park, with easy access by car to all the Pittsburgh neighborhoods. Easy place to want to visit again.

Great place to stay. The rooms are quaint. Staff are very pleasant. The courtyard is a great place to hang out and so peaceful. The grab and go breakfast is a great idea and was good. Close distance to all the major attractions. Would definitely stay here again.

Spent one night for our 28th anniversary. Beautiful hotel! Cost was great especially with parking and breakfast included. Close to all the things we did with a short drive. Room is on the small side but the bed was luxurious and the bathroom was impeccably clean. Courtyard was not available in the evening due to a wedding, but we had breakfast there and it was lovely.

Not only were the rooms extremely nice, the bed was very comfortable and the staff were some of the nicest people you could hope to meet. Free breakfast was very tasty and not the usual stale cereal and questionable eggs but a very tasty croissant sandwich and muffins. We will most definitely be back.
