10/10 Exceptional

The room was spotless clean and nicely decorated. Comfortable mattress and bedding. Front desk staff were very polite. As well as the valet service. The hotel was decorated festively for autumn. The hotel was a short walking distance to the University of Pittsburgh arena, where we went to see a concert. There are a lot of food venues nearby. Price was great. Can’t go wrong when staying at a Hilton hotel!

We had a great stay at the Hilton Garden Inn Pittsburgh University Place. Rooms were clean, staff were available and helpful. Walkable to many cheap restaurants, to the Carnegie museums, Phipps Conservatory, the Nationality rooms. Would recommend.

Great visit with my sis

Hotel was great! Had every amenity we were looking for. The valet staff was the absolute BEST.
Darlene, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Staff were great, both at the front desk and restaurant. Walls in room were thin, could clearly hear tv and conversations next door. Ceilings are low in the room as well.
Christopher, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Nice place to stay

Clean comfortable hotel conveniently located near UPMC hospitals. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was clean with nice amenities except for the pillows. While they look nice and fluffy, the second you put your head on them they turn into flat pancakes. The parking price is also a little steep—$35 for one night is a lot especially when the cost of the room is also high. Overall it is a great place to stay if you need to be at one of the hospitals early in the morning.

Elevator did not need a room key to operate. That’s supposed to be a big safety feature. Anyone can walk in off the street and hop on the elevator.

6/10 Good

Average Hotel

Rooms need updated. Check in was slow, had to wait in a line to get checked in.
1-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff went over and above, they were the best! However, we had a number of issues, from our phone not working & couldn’t be fixed. The hotel keys often did not work. The door knob had to be fixed. The tub drain was a problem eventually got fixed and we were not told that housekeeping was every other day and they never even gave us a new soap. the garbage would pile up in the waste basket. When you enter the hotel with suitcases, you have to walk up two short steps of stairs we were senior citizens and no one even helped us. Unfortunately even though I’m Hilton Honors, I would never recommend staying here
