    Lobby
    Scott K.

    Located in the heart of Pittsburgh, easy access from all directions. Car service with a "governor's driveway" in front for door to door service. Like tiling out a red carpet for you. The lobby is beautiful!! Staff is amazing, even better service than I expected. The meeting rooms are like ballrooms. Everything was spotless!! Bill's Bar & Burgers, is a Landry's Select Club Restaurant inside the hotel which makes it a more comfortable spot when winding down after work with a nice Happy Hour menu. Friendly and accommodating staff there as well! While visiting downtown the Cultural District and the Strip District are within walking distance as well as bridges to the North Shore. Overall a FANTASTIC time with no issues with any aspect. All the visiting pro teams stay here so it must say something!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!

    Beautiful hotel in a fantastic location. Very clean, friendly staff and the gym is wonderful. The bar and Grill in the lobby is good and open late. The standard rooms are basic but everything else is high quality. I had to order room service one night for dinner during a really bad snowstorm and it was delicious. The arugula and ancient grain salad was fantastic and I love the charred vegetables. The Caesar salad was basic which is fine and the cauliflower kimchi fried rice wasn't too shabby. The full portion of the fried rice is massive. It must've weighed like a pound and a half. I ordered the full portion for all of these and the total came to $55 with the tip.

    Pros Got upgraded to a corner suite Makeup mirror Impressive selection of beverages at the front desk Big gym When you ask at the front desk for shower caps and vanity kit- they give several. Cons Only one recumbent bike and it was broken. No sign indicated it was broken. I reported it to the front desk. At first she didn't do anything so I stood there until she wrote it down. She said she would have someone look at it and at least put a sign on it. The next day it was still broken and no sign on it. Biking and working the knees are important to me while on travel. The Colts were staying here- how can you have a broken piece of gym equipment?! To call downstairs I had to use my cell phone. The no heat was my big issue. They sent someone and it seemed to get a little better (70s instead of 60s?) . But still cold. They offered to change my room but it was 11:30pm and I was leaving the next day. Super disappointed. I requested the engineer return. Waited and waited. I also requested additional blankets. When I went to check out, my key did not work. Went down to front desk. He gave me a new key. Went back up. Key didn't work. Maid felt sorry for me seeing me twice trying to get into my room and let me in. Door was set to open so I had to pee with the door basically open. Got my stuff and checked out. Would not stay here again. Will note my cousin also stayed here and had a different experience.

    Great location right in downtown, steps from the rivers and plenty of restaurants. The gym here is one of the best I've seen in a hotel, with a full TRX room and plenty of machines (just missing a StairMaster to make it perfect). Rooms are clean, comfortable, and practical with fridges included. Staff is efficient and the lobby/common areas are modern and inviting. Overall, a solid and convenient stay.

    Overall, it was a great hotel. You can see it was a high-end brand in the past, but nowadays, certain renovations are not bad at all. Many businesses within the same building. Easy self park or valet for a fee. Rooms are good, bathrooms with small shower tub. Comfortable beds and good size tv. Ok restaurant bar on site. The best thing is its location. Walking distance to many good restaurants and some bars. Seems everything downtown Pittsburgh closes early during the week (10 or 11pm). Only one bar closes 1-2am in the area. All in all good value good stay experience.

    Walking into the hotel, I noticed how updated and clean the place was. I was greeted nicely by the check in staff. The room was spacious and had great amenities in the bathroom. Also great additions are the restaurant and bar, plus connection to the Civic Center. With it perfectly located downtown, we were able to enjoy the Heinz Museum, Primanti Bros, and steal city views from the civic outdoor patios.

    $3 if you take coffee to go. I thought it was a joke at first..

    Outdated and old! I will not be staying here again. They need to rip out the moldy old carpet and renovate everything. I'm shocked that this is a Westin because they are usually nice, but not this one! The only thing that looked nice was the lobby. Everything else was awful. Even the breakfast was bad. They told me with my titanium elite status I only get the cold breakfast, if I want anything hot then there's a $4 surcharge. I was disappointed because every other BonVoy hotel I have stayed at always provides a very nice breakfast and takes care of their elite members. I was even more shocked when they said there's a $3 surcharge just to take your coffee to go! Disappointing. But I will say, all the employees were very nice and good people.

    Free water, except one was already open and empty

    Some disappointing aspects with the customer relations. The hotel is a nice hotel. The rooms are a little old, but the bed is super comfortable, although it looks a little messy when you enter the room! When I checked in, I was not greeted as an elite titanium member even though I use the Bonvoy elite line. The gentleman that checked me in could not provide us with connecting rooms, although I did request that prior to our arrival! I had to ask upon check-in about the breakfast that we are entitled to and I was told that it is only a continental breakfast because they are a convention hotel, which is not listed on the website as if it's a Westin but a convention hotel you don't get the full breakfast ? That is nowhere listed on the titanium benefits.! The elevators, although very modern for floor selection, do not give you the option to choose which elevators you want to go in it assigns you an elevator once you select your floor on the outside of the elevators -so when 10 people pack in the same elevator with you and normally you could get out and go to an other elevator that has nobody in it, this hotel does not have the option so you have to stop at every floor- The parking garage for self Park is two levels down, and if you're not a spatial Relations specialist, good luck getting into those parking spaces ! Overall, very disappointing I would not stay at this hotel again. One of the other major issues I had was the rooms provide two bottles of water that are in aluminum reusable containers. If you need another bottle of water, it's six dollars however one of our bottles of water was already empty and placed back on the serving tray, which makes me think that obviously the room was not cleaned properly because when I picked it up, you could tell it was totally hollow, and the seal was broken. -

    Emma at the front desk was rude, unprofessional, and in need of customer service training.

    It is connected to the convention center but I've never been inside so I can't give an opinion on it.

Super versatile with lots and lots of potential for personalization. Multiple different areas with a variety of character. Gracie and her team were extremely helpful from the moment i first looked at the space to the day after the event. They have seasonal decorations that add to the beauty of the space. They are extremely flexible and worked with us to get the tables/decor/food setup. I cannot think of a better space for private events from birthdays to weddings. Highly recommended.

    HIP at the Flashlight Factory may claim their "clients are not just another number," but their…read moreactions certainly prove that their clients are nothing more than dollar signs to them. Long story short, HIP notified my BFF via email only one week before her wedding that, to comply with the fire marshal's mandate, their venue would no longer be able to accommodate her wedding. Fortunately, the bride and bridal party were able to miraculously find another amazingly accommodating venue that same day, but HIP's handling of the issue was nothing less than classless. What was already a stressful situation was exacerbated by HIP's incompetent and unsympathetic actions, including (but not limited to): - delayed communication of the venue's inability to host the wedding - being unresponsive to requests to finalize details of the venue transition (yet still having time to post videos to social media about the situation) - trying to charge ridiculous prices for minimal venue involvement ($2,500 just to use the venue as a hotel and to take pictures there), - and claiming the rented tables were damaged when they were returned (even though they were already damaged when provided in the first place) just to be able to keep the $500 deposit We're so thrilled that the wedding turned out well despite the frustration of having to deal with HIP, but their behavior and attitude were completely unprofessional and, quite frankly, rude. If you're looking to have your big day at their venue, I'd recommend thinking twice. Give your business to people that truly have your best interests -- and not just your money -- in mind.
