Top Central Oakland Hotel Reviews

The Landing Hotel at Rivers Casino

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful time the staff is amazing!"

Hilton Garden Inn Pittsburgh University Place

8/10 Good

"The room looked very dated, but very clean. It was loud, I could hear all the noise outside and in the hallway. The elevators are very small, had to wait on elevator the next elevator a couple times. Front desk staff were extremely professional and the valet excellent service!! The restaurant on site very nice and the food was good. I gave a 4 star only because of the hotel itself felt dated, and I felt the valet waiting area was very cramped when there was more than one guest waiting for their vehicle. Also because of being able to hear all outside and hallway noise."

Hyatt Place Pittsburgh-North Shore

8/10 Good

"The hotel is a little dated with limited views of the city. It states a restaurant on site, but there is no restaurant or bar as stated on their website. The complimentary breakfast was good but they close the restaurant right at 9am. Coffee was not available after the 9am closing since everything was removed by the staff. The staff was great and they reported the hotel is being renovated starting in November 2026. The rooms definitely need updating and our sofa had a lot of stains on it. There is no microwave in the room. A decent place to stay if you are going to any of the stadiums in town. Close to Jason Aldean's kitchen and bar."
