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.

Nicely decorated hotel. Friendly staff. Spacious room. Good value. Plenty of excellent shopping in the neighborhood. We selected this hotel because we wanted to be near Mt Lebanon where my cousin's reside. We will stay here again.

This was our first trip abroad with our 10 month old baby - we were warmly welcomed and very well accommodated by the Crowne Plaza S. Pitt. The hotel has brilliant helpful staff, and is very well placed for South Hills Village, and the T into Pittsburgh itself. We are regular travellers to this area, and will definitely be staying...
