• It was centrally located, quietly sophisticated, excellent dining.
• A few amenities like chocolate or the bed turned down would put the final touches on it.

“The Renaissance Hotel is very urban and is centrally located and in the heart of the cultural district of Pittsburgh. It is friendly as well as sophisticated, quiet and unassuming. The architecture of the building has been preserved and while it is updated in terms of amenities it still has the charm of a bygone era.”

• Great location and fantastic view of the city overlooking the river.
• The hotel was not able to give me any Marriott reward points.

“The hotel is located conveniently across the river from PNC Park for those die hard baseball fans and within walking distance from Heinz filed where the Steelers play. It's right in the middle of the cultural district and walking distance to lots of great restaurants and tourist attractions. The architecture of the Renaissance is breath-taking. The detail workmanship that went into the building of this hotel really shows a lot. I highly recommend this hotel to types of travelers, may it be a weekend getaway (Single or not), business purpose or family vacation. I was really impressed.”

• The foyer.
• Having to park in a ramp and the room being very plain.

“I probably would not stay here again when visiting Pittsburgh because I felt overall the parking ramp was very inconvenient, and although the room was very clean, it was also not what I expected for a "4 star" hotel.”

• Awesome hotel, right across the bridge from the baseball stadium, beautiful.
• Nothing.

“This hotel is beautiful. We had an excellent room and were very impressed with the hotel. The location is perfect if you want to go to a Pirates game or a Steelers game.”

• The views, location, & room where all great and everything we expected.
• I wish we could have had 1 king sized bed rather than 2 queen.

“This was not the first time we stayed in the Renaissance and I am sure it wont be the last. Everything in this hotel says class and style. I highly recommend this hotel for any romantic getaway as well as any business travel.”

• Decor, historic nature, location, gorgeous lobby.
• Whirlpool and enclosed area needed cleaning.

“Beautiful hotel centrally located to the stadiums, Heinz Hall and close enough to walk to the transit line (the T) for transportation to Station Square and elsewhere. The central lobby is awe-inspiring and grand in every way.”

• Beautiful marble construction.
• There is nothing I didn't like.

“I was absolutely delighted with the luxurious lobby and the tasteful and elegant rooms and dining room. Employees were unusually friendly and helpful. Location in Downtown Pittsburgh is Prime: close to theaters, wonderful restaurants and businesses, and within walking distance of the baseball stadium.”

• The lobby area was gorgeous.
• Pricey room service.

“Overall the stay was very nice. We were only there one night and didnt eat in the restaurant, so we did not experience much of the hotel. What we did experience was excellent. The room was very attractive and quiet. I particularly enjoyed the high ceilings.”

• Helpful staff, excellent location.
• Left a small, unopened bottle of wine on desk and it disappeared!

“Having flown to Pittsburgh on the red-eye with my 18-year-old daughter, we were exhausted by the time we checked into the hotel. The staff was unbelievably friendly, the room and beds were luscious. Everything exceeded our expectations.”

“Hotel is gorgeous. Rooms extremely clean. Smokers are not lepers, so it would not kill hotels to at least have one floor available for smokers.”

• The amazing decor downstairs and the clean and classy decor of each room. PLUS free internet usage was great.
• It was in an area of town where everything closes very early and the hotel restaurant was not good at all. Chatty waitress, not fresh food.

“This hotel is in an area of town that is the theater/financial district. I am told it is alive when there shows going on and it closes up early when there are not. That is important to know if you are going out of your room at 8:30pm to find a restaurant open. The hotel itself was beautiful and the front desk and maid/doorman people were very nice. But the parking situation is horrible. Expect to pay lots of money if you are coming and going in a car each day. The hotel restaurant had a waitress that talks so much to me and the table next to me that I know more about her life over the last 15 years than I know about my own teenager. Too chatty for an elegant restaurant, called us "Hon" and "Sweety" and I'm 46 years old. It was as if I was in a burger joint. Our food tasted like it was warmed up in the microwave and it took them a while to think about bringing us bread plates, etc. I do not recommend the hotel restaurant but I am told there are a lot of nice restaurants around, if you can find them open. Call ahead.”

• All staff was exceptional: Very courteous & attentive. The foyer was spectacular. Our room was huge!
• There was nothing I didn't like about this hotel.

“Upon entering the Renaissance-Pittsburgh, my brother and I knew we were in for a treat. The foyer is an astounding piece of architecture with high arched ceiling covered with intricate tile work. The hotel is absolutely immaculate with courteous staff that greeted and opened the door for us each time we entered and exited. Even the housekeeping staff seemed to care that our stay was a pleasant one.”

• Beautiful historic hotel - great restoration and ambience.
• Housekeeping.

“This hotel would have gotten higher ratings. Unfortunately housekeeping staff never arrived to attend to our room until 4:45 in the afternoon. We had been away all day and had no interest in leaving at that point so we straightened ourselves and just asked for fresh towels and toiletries. Front desk made no attempt to apologize or make amends.”

• The lobby was beautiful, the location perfect and the staff was friendly and helpful.
• I wanted a gift shop, they didn't have one but the staff recommended several places to get what I needed.

“My husband and I were in Pittsburg for a wedding and were using the time to get away from all the commitments of home. We were extremely satisfied with the hotel. The Renaissance has this amazing lobby that is filled with beautiful mosaic tiles. The atmosphere of the lobby, service areas and guest room was luxurious. I felt pampered. (I just wish I would have noticed the robe in the closet the night before we left - I would have taken advantage of that!). I have already recommended the service to others and know that we will use it again. Thank you for a memorable trip.”
