The front desk didn’t give us much information at check in. The parking garage couldn’t accommodate an SUV’s height. The back lot was very sketchy to park in. The room needed more blankets.

Hotel is nice. Employees are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Room was very quiet. After walking quite a distance for food, I use a walker, I decided to eat at the hotel restaurant. While the food was good it was a bit pricey. I wish they would have had a shuttle to the neighboring hospitals. That would have been great. But it was a great choice in hotels near the hospital.

Hilton Garden Inn Review

Everything was great, check in was very quick, hotel parking in the rear of the building, we were able to keep car in lot until 1:00pm the next day to take a tour of the nursing program at University of Pittsburgh with my son, we had dinner in the onsite restaurant and the service was fantastic. I would recommend the downtown Hilton Garden Inn.
