The Priory Hotel

We stayed for two nights --- This is the quietest hotel room that I have ever stayed in. Usually the first night in any hotel I wake up repeatedly all night long. This did not happen at the Priory. We stayed on the third floor. Mattress was awesome. No street noise, no people noise. Also, they provided a satisfactory breakfast in the dining room. Two things. Not much in the area if you want a quick bite somewhere, such as a fast food. You need to drive for basically anything. Second thing --- Room temperature was hard to control. A bit too warm for January. But all in all, WHO CARES !!! Summary --- we really enjoyed our stay and if our son does go to CMU for college we will use this facility repeatedly.

Loved the King Suite in the new addition. The staff was extremely helpful - felt they went above and beyond! Monk's bar was great to enjoy a cocktail before bed. My boyfriend was pleasantly surprised by the Turkey sandwich ordered for a 'mid-night' snack. Only wish they were open for lunch.

The hotel was beautiful and I enjoyed my stay there. It was an easy walk to PNC park. I was disappointed that it does not have any night life options immediately around the hotel. All of the places by the ball park were packed and had wait times of multiple hours. The area directly around the hotel did not seem like the best part of town. The staff were very accommodating and went out of their way to provide the best service possible. The breakfast was wonderful and the bar was great too!

Staying at The Priory Hotel was such a treat. It has all of the larger hotel amenities, like a fitness center, but the warmth and charm of a small B&B. The staff was very informative and helpful in providing info about Pittsburgh. The bartender gave us lots of information about the old neighborhood (he grew up there). The continental breakfast was great...we sat in the courtyard. Walking around the neighborhood was a lot of fun; there is a lot of beautiful architecture and the people are so friendly. We wished we could have stayed another day.

We enjoyed our stay at The Priory with family who recommended it. The staff was friendly and helpful. It is a charming place; the building is cool and filled with antiques yet it is very clean and comfortable with modern amenities. Though a bit removed from downtown, we did walk to a couple of good neighborhood restaurants. Not a bargain but worth the price.

I saw the description of this B & B and was fascinated by the history. I was also looking for a place within walking distance to PNC Park. The staff was truly outstanding. The front desk folks were friendly and helpful. We arrived late and were exhausted, so they gave us our key and let us take care of the paperwork the following morning. Very considerate. My disappointment came in the breakfast and the afternoon happy hour. It was described as a German Continental Breakfast. To me, this conjures up visions of heavy German breads, cold cuts, cheeses and hearty things to fill you up. The offering included cold boiled eggs, bacon, bagels (cream cheese only if you were there before 8:00am), Kelloggs cereals (mostly kid cereals like Fruit Loops & Frosted Flakes) , muffins and pound cake like breads. It wasn't bad, just not what I was expecting. As for the afternoon Happy Hour.....it doesn't exist. No snacks, no beverages, nada. Maybe they just need to update their in-room info and their web-site. The rooms were spacious and decorated in the period of the Priory. The bedding and linens were nice. The little courtyard off the dining room was delightful. Overall the place met my expectations. I would definitely stay there again.

We love the Priory. The rooms are quaint but functional. The staff was so helpful. The Innkeeper even recognized our anniversary! We were close to Heinz Field. Great value, great rooms, good food. Will stay there every time we go to Pittsburgh.

The Priory Hotel is a neat cross between a hotel and a bed and breakfast. Located in a historic section of the city - converted monastery with evidence everywhere of what it used to be, but with modern conveniences. Good breakfasts - very convenient.

We were so pleasantly surprised with the hotel. It was so quaint and adorable but the room was a great size. We loved the patio in the back where we had a glass of wine before going out on the town. We would recommend this place to anyone staying in Pittsburgh!

What pleased us was how close the hotel was to what we wanted to see and how easy it was to walk around Pittsburgh. Our room was impeccably clean. We enjoyed the breakfast offerings. I don't have any negatives at all.

I stayed here while I was in town for a conference. I did not feel like paying $200 - $300 for a room. The price was around $129 + tax. This is an old ( late 1800s) Benedictine monastery that was converted into an inn 25 years ago. This is a great value for the money. The staff is very friendly and informative. The rooms are older but clean and the bed was comfortable. My room was a corner room and somewhat small. There is no elevator. There is a decent continent breakfast included. The character of the inn is impressive. It feels like you stepped back in time. Good value but the neighborhood is sketchy and appears to be in the midst of a transformation. We walked to a nearby restaurant where the food was excellent. We noticed several buildings being renovated inside. The hotel is expanding and adding an addition. Parking is across the street but smaller lot.

The Priory was beautiful, interesting, tasteful. The staff was extremely helpful. Lots of personal touches in the rooms. Only disappointment was the breakfast, which was nothing more than a continental breakfast which would be complimentary in any chain motel. We expected more. Despite this, overall, it is a unique place to stay, would recommend it, but do not expect a great breakfast.

The Priory is a gorgeous hotel that is a great place to stay if you're going to see a Pirates game. The rooms are unique and comfortable, the staff was friendly, the atmosphere was great. The only reason I didn't do a 4-star rating for the dining (since I assume it was great) is because we didn't eat there.
