    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.
