"All good and convenient location. "

"We visited Pittsburgh as a get-away and a friend recommended Mansions on Fifth after attending an event there. Entering the front door was like finding an elegant, civil world of the past. The facilities show care and love; the staff are friendly and customer-focused. We appreciated the bar and sitting areas as quiet places for gathering and discussing. The bar offers drink and food options we enjoyed at the end of the day. Our room was quiet, clean, and well appointed. Walnut street, a 15 minute walk away, offered many eating options. The Airport Flyer bus (route 28X) stops on the corner of Amberson and Fifth next to the hotel. The Carnegie Museums of Art and Natural History, and the Phipps Conservatory are a 25-30 minute walk and worth a visit. "

"Lovely hotel built in 1916. Old world charm in the middle of the city with any and all amenities needed."

"We booked this hotel as the last minute after our flight was grounded for the evening due to the weather quite literally as we were about to take off. The rates were very reasonable given the last minute booking. I booked two rooms (one for my husband, infant I and one for my mom) and when I arrived, they offered an adjoining room without me even asking which was very much appreciated. Overall, check in was super friendly and seamless despite a large number of us there from said grounded flight. The room itself is a little dated and could use a facelift but it felt clean enough. The sheets were quite rough and it did smell a bit like wet dog- were we staying longer this may have been a real issue but for this night, we were just happy to have a clean and warm place to rest our heads. My only real disappointment was that I thought this hotel was literally a part of the airport. This is likely due to my own lack of research as I frantically was booking something, but we had an infant with no car seat and so we needed something we could get to without vehicular transport if at all possible. The shuttle itself was fine- it came regularly and was easy to find but I did not love having my infant in a shuttle with no car seat. Again, not the fault of the hotel but clarifying for anyone else in a similar situation. Overall, this hotel is wonderful in a pinch, especially if you need to be near the airport. I am not sure I would love staying here long term, though. "

"We stayed at the beginning of our trip as we had an early flight. The room was clean. It was great to have a safe place to leave my car at an affordable price for the duration of my trip away. The shuttle was great. Leaving at 4am the drive was very cheerful and excellent driver with helpful hints and good information about the new airport. Due this experience we decided on the day of our return to book another night as nasty winter weather was looming. The desk staff was much better on our second night with check-in. (The first night we stayed we had to ask for our room key and number, he thought he was finished.) The breakfast in the morning had a good variety. The only thing we had trouble with were the charging ports for our phones. The outlets were very loose and my phone didn't get charged in the 12 hours we were in the room. We noticed there was some renovations happening so we hope they will do something about the charging stations in the rooms. And it would be nice to have at least one for each bed on the nightstand near the beds."
