Good value. The room was clean and the facility is a bit dated, but customer service was decent. We could park right in front of the entrance, and it’s within walking distance to many decent restaurants.

Couldn't control the temperature in my room....room too cold. No change of towels, no replacement of coffee, no room service at all. Elevator worked sporadically.

This was the second time that I have stayed at the Mansions. It really is a charming and elegant home turned hotel. The rooms are clean. The staff are nice. And the parking is a great bonus. I look forward to my next trip to Pittsburgh!

3.0 / 10.0

If the purpose of your trip is to be near CMU, this is a great hotel due to its proximity. For anything else, this is a very average hotel, unless you really love the old archaic mansion style. You get a good amount of room, but the space is not very high quality. The bathroom was old, very little light, and then furniture is quite old (again, if you like this kind of thing then this is great). Additionally, they somehow were not able to finish cleaning my room by 3pm (or at least they prioritized other rooms, even though it didn't seem like there were a lot of people staying at the time?), and so when I got back at 3:45pm (tired) I couldn't be bothered to wait for them to clean it. That's not terrible, but when I asked the front desk worker if the hotel could clean it by 3pm the next day, they said that they couldn't guarantee it, and ADDITIONALLY accused me that the only reason they didn't the day before was because I had put the "Do not disturb" sign on (which I definitely did not, they knew I hadn't put that up the prior day because they called me asking if I wanted it cleaned at around 5-6pm, to which I said no). To be clear, the issue wasn't so much that they missed the cleaning, it was what happened the next day. To summarize, a very average experience for a supposed "4-star hotel" (I would say it is much, much closer to a 3-star or even 2-star hotel in my experience).

Very nice boutique hotel

We stayed just one night to help our son move to an off campus house near Pitt. Our room was large and lovely - a grand old building lovingly restored. Parking right there and no extra charge. Just a few minutes from Pitt’s campus. Price was comparable to brand name hotels, but the place is much more interesting. We took a short Uber ride to dinner (love Butterjoint) and enjoyed a nightcap at the hotel bar, sleeping hard in our quiet room after moving and cleaning. The hotel’s bag breakfast was a snack to get us going for good bagels and coffee. Really the only minus there is the lack of solid breakfast and good coffee, and not big one. Will certainly stay here again.

2.0 / 10.0

They canceled my reservation after I had received a confirmation that a room had been reserved. They called me to say that there was a glitch in their system that reserved a room in error. When I spoke with the manager, she failed to properly explain to me what had occurred and did not offer any assistance . I had stayed at this property several times in the past, but now they have lost a customer for good. They can never be trusted. Completely unprofessional of them to cancel my reservation after I had received the email confirmation.

Historic property and service like the guilded age

8.0 / 10.0

It was such a cute place. Most of the staff was very polite and informative. One thing I didn’t like was that I could overhear the cleaning people complaining about their jobs how they didn’t have enough time to complete the work that they needed to get done. Also, I didn’t like how much noise I could hear through the unsealed windows in room 2302 they really need to insulate their windows so it doesn’t sound like you’re sleeping on the street. But I would definitely stay there again. I did really love the place and it’s very convenient for visiting my son at CMU.

We loved this historic mansion and would definitely stay again! Uber/Lyft readily available so we parked in the lot and either walked or got rides easily our whole stay. The mansion itself was beautiful and the room had everything we needed. The only negative was the breakfast- not worth the upcharge.

2.0 / 10.0

I was expecting a wow in staffing and all. The way the breakfast is done and the fact the front desk checking was not welcoming. It was not a pleasant experience no water in the room

Beautiful boutique hotel in a historic building. If you prefer not to have stairs, be sure to ask for a room not located on the 3rd floor. The bar is very nice.

5.0 / 10.0

Came to stay here due to location near Shadyside hopsital, where I had surgery the next day. What a beautiful property. Friendly staff, especially our bartender. She was young, but easy to talk to and had knowledge beyond her years. We didnt eat here, so can not attest to that. Beds were confortable. Rooms very large and the interior was like a european hotel. Dark woods with Great history.

The mansions on Fifth are, first of all, gorgeous inside and out. Upon arrival, I was met by a staff member who held the door for me and asked if I required help with any luggage. He then explained some history of the property when I began asking questions about it. I felt very welcomed right away. Check-in was simple and prompt. I stayed in the Amberson house, which is located next to the main building. My room was on the second floor. I could hear some people upstairs during my stay, but it was muffled and not loud at all so I was unbothered. The room has plenty of natural lighting, equipped with all my needs. I felt very safe here. I wish the bathtub had a functional plug so I could have taken a bath, but the shower worked wonderfully so it's not an issue. There is light traffic outside, nothing crazy, so it still felt calm inside. They offered breakfast for $15/person, which I declined. Check-out was also quick and easy. Overall, I would certainly recommend. I hope to return and hear the piano of the main house played sometime.

A beautiful boutique hotel includes excellent services from staff. The cost is reasonable for tourists

4.0 / 10.0

The room is clean. We stay at a king-bed room with a sofa bed, they’re comfortable. The mansion and the house is amazing: full of old time styles and with beautiful garden. We took a lot of pictures of them. BTW, the hotel stays at a quiet and safe community and near CMU campus. It’s easy to find delicious foods too.

4.0 / 10.0

When you tell people there is an elevator, they assume it takes you to their room. Not just one between two floors requiring stairs to all others.

6.0 / 10.0

They told us there was an elevator, there was not. It does not go to the third floor and the staff did not care about the issue.

Unique space close to universities, restaurants, stores, and more. Very comfortable

8.0 / 10.0

The complete property is beautiful. The classic feel all around is comforting and elegant. The size of the room and bathroom is amazing. The main lobby is impressive. The only detail that should be taken into consideration: the size and amount of soap in the bathroom and the lack of water bottles to drink is important.

8.0 / 10.0

Lovely mansion, friendly, helpful staff. Annex did not have elevator; had to carry bags to top floor (3rd floor).

10.0 / 10.0

Beautiful historic building conveniently located in the Shadyside neighborhood. Very convenient free parking in a Pittsburgh hotel, which is usually inconvenient and expensive. We enjoyed meeting our family in the beautiful cocktail lounge, and the staff was very pleasant and most accommodating. My only criticism is that our room furniture was somewhat worn, with scratches in the wood, chipped edges, etc. The bathroom itself had been recently renovated, and the room itself was very clean.

5.0 / 10.0

Wonderful stay walking distance from the CMU campus. House is beautiful. Only recommendation is strengthen the WiFi, much needed for business or students connecting to do homework.

The room has no refrigerator. I was not told when I checked in. I bought a lot of food and had to through them away next day as there is no refrigerator. I kept on calling the hotel manager in the ladt three days and didn't hear any call back after I left massage to the manager.

2.0 / 10.0

There was a large window in the bathroom, and probably because it was windy outside, the whole bathroom felt really cold. When I came out after showering, I could feel a chilly draft all over my body. What made things worse was that there was a ventilation vent in the room right next to the bed that made a constant noise all night long—it sounded like being on an airplane. I couldn’t sleep at all and only dozed off around 5 a.m. But then at around 9:30 a.m., a cleaning staff member suddenly came in without knocking. They just opened the door and walked in. When they saw my son and me still sleeping, they said, “Oh, you’re still here? I thought you had already left.” The whole experience was terrible. I barely slept—just a little over three hours—and just when I finally did, someone barged in and startled us. We’re exhausted, especially since we have to attend my son’s university tour today.

10.0 / 10.0

I love the historical building and the maintenance of the history while also being practical for modern times.
