Hyatt House Pittsburgh-South Side

Arex S

Clean and large rooms. This hotel is located right on the river. Conveniently located few minutes away from the express and not too far away from the Carson st. Within 5 min walk you can get to at least a dozen restaurants and bars. Huge Oktoberfest type restaurant is adjacent to the hotel in case you don’t feel brave enough to explore. Parking onsite is $20/n but we had not problem parking across the street at a public garage for $15/n Expect a typical Hyatt Place / House continental breakfast. The man that takes care of the breakfast area do make sure everything is out and ready for quests. Hotel also has a small bar which is stocked with basic selection of liquor.

This is the worst Hyatt property we have ever stayed at and is now on our avoid list. Parking: Parking garage requires double parking. This means that you must hand over your keys to the front desk in case they need to move your car. We found our rental car moved and smelling of smoke - it appears that someone had smoked in our rental. Breakfast: We went to breakfast at 9 (they close at 9:30) and found that they were out of nearly everything. No coffee, eggs, or pastries. No silverware and trash cans were overflowing. Room: Dirty and has has tape on the ceiling. Had a cracked toilet seat (which required maintenance to come by). This property also hosts events. Be prepared for loud music until 10:30 at night (followed by an hour of them breaking down tables and cleaning up). Not where I would recommend going for a restful stay - though the wedding party seemed to have fun.

This hotel was excellent, and that’s from me, who is old and cranky. The young man at the desk the late afternoon of April 7th was friendly and very helpful. The room was spotless. The free breakfast was real breakfast, not a box with some muffins in it. We travel with a small dog, and the hotel put $200 on my card for amenities, so I think that if the dog damaged something (it didn’t), they would take it from that. That’s fair – I would expect to pay for any damages. What I appreciate is that if there are no damages, we don’t pay anything. This is opposed to a recent stay at another hotel, which charged a $50.00 pet fee regardless of any damages. The South Side location was very good – quiet in the evening, and convenient to where we needed to be (Carnegie Mellon University). Parking was excellent – in a garage beneath the building. Finally, I was happy with the cost. Room rate, taxes, fees, and one night of parking for under $200.00. Going forward, we won’t stay anywhere else.

Couldn't sleep. Amenities are lovely (new, built in kitchenette, large bathroom, charging ports) and their breakfast is a massive spread. Rooms are clean. Didn't have time to avail myself of the pool, gym, or laundry facilities because of work. Plenty of walking distance restaurants and grocery stores. I wish earplugs and eye masks were complimentary in the room, because I was working 15 hour days with no time to retrieve a set of my own. The AC/Heating unit in the room is ridiculously noisy and the blackout curtain coverage isn't great. Parking is an extra $20 per day.
