Top University of Pittsburgh Hotel Reviews

Drury Plaza Hotel Pittsburgh Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Good location downtown and easy walk to the T to go to the stadium. There were a lot of breakfast options and the evening kickback is nice even just for a drink and a snack before heading out for the evening. Food isn’t amazing, but definitely above average for an included offering. Every staff member we encountered was super friendly and helpful from the eating area to the front desk to the valets. Property was clean and well maintained. We didn’t use the pool or exercise room, but checked them both out on our way to the rooftop deck and they both looked well maintained. Loved the rooftop deck to hang out with coffee for a bit after breakfast. The only small negative we encountered was the cushions on the deck weren’t in great shape, but the furniture was, so hopefully they replace on a regular basis. Very cool historical building with informational plaques. Make sure to head down to the lower level to see the Federal Reserve safe doors. Very cool! This was our first stay at a Drury and we will definitely actively look for them when traveling in the future. Great value!"
