I thought the receptionist could have been friendlier and more willing to answer a question. And I was disappointed that I wasn´t given a room in the main building, but at the house next door.

Beautiful historic building with friendly staff and a good price in a location that worked well for us. Only complaint is the mattress was a bit saggy. We will stay here on future visits to Pittsburgh. Recommend!

This property needs renovation ASAP.

The hotel was in a great part of Pittsburg. Very safe walking the neighborhood. Very classy hotel with great ambiance and the check in was easy. Surprisingly, the parking, in a big city, was easy. I thought the price for all that was very reasonable. The issue we had was the mechanicals in the building was loud and vibrating to the point that we could not sleep which ended up with us leaving in the middle of the night and shortening our vacation due to the lack of sleep. So a great trip ended on a sour note.

This is a beautiful old home and the charm is its unique features such as crown molding, 15-foot ceilings, and painted frescoes on the walls/ceiling. Our room was on the front of the building which was quite noisy. The hotel is beginning to show its age, but overall we had a lovely time.

We booked this hotel and when we reached the hotel for check in, they did not let us in as there was a wedding on their premises. They said no rooms were available and the parking lot was full. They overbooked themselves and did nothing to help us out. Luckily, Expedia (especially Koena and Ursula) helped us out and made rebooked us at the Oaklander that night. Will never go the Mansion on Fifth again.

My boyfriend and me stayed at the Mansion on Fifth. We loved the loft style king room. Super unique, quiet, and comfortable. The only issue we had was we wanted coffee that was fresh and not from the tiny little machine located in the room. There was coffee and food available from 10 am till maybe ten thirty am. We missed our coffee! There was only one staff member the entire time with the exception of one cleaning lady while we were checking out.

Stayed in smaller house next to the mansion. It was still very cool. However, the mansion was booked for a wedding so we did not have access to it until late in the evening- too late for us. Would have been ok if we knew that when we booked it, but there was nothing about that on listing. …Bwd was very comfortable, but sofa bed for my son was pretty bad. …Great restaurant choices 1/2 mile walk.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Mansions on Fifth. It's a beautifully restored historic property in a great location. Everything was spotless and well-maintained. Staff were friendly and helpful. We used the small gym and the breakfast was delicious.

Very cool property with amazing architecture and spacious room. Quality of bed linens could be better. Window blinds very dirty but room was otherwise clean. Views amazing. Just a little more attention to detail would have earned better rating but overall we enjoyed our stay. Pub awesome although we didn’t have time to enjoy. Would likely stay again.

A large event left is without parking! The same event had a loud after-party in the room below us with thumping music (by 1:30 AM, I think the staff should have shut it down)

Parking was awful, we didn’t realise we weren’t in the main house which was the reason we chose, our room had an ant problem and admittedly they did credit our account a percentage for that. Housekeeping made our bed but nothing else, left ant filled cups, didn’t refresh towels or empty trash. Staff were mostly uninterested in us. Facilities don’t warrant it being called a luxury hotel.

Unique stay at a renovated mansion. The rooms have modern upgrades, but the property still has a historic feel. Overnight was quiet.

A very old mansion, so fun. Needs updating Re scraping and painting and screens for the windows. Staff was distant but helpful and friendly when needed. A little expensive. Outside is beautiful.

This is a very beautiful property and only 0.4 miles to CMU. The surrounding of the property is quiet and safe, there is a bus stop close and we can go around by bus. The front desk people is very nice.

Fantastic location to town, the college and the museums. We walked to all of these multiple times leaving the car behind.
Our 3rd floor room we a bit warm one afternoon when it was 90* outside, but other than that we enjoyed our little hideaway.

We booked the room same day as we were driving in from out of town. Prepaid with confirmation number. When we arrived they said they were fully booked and, “yeah, this happens all the time.” Obviously could not have cared less that we were forced to scramble for a room. Would not recommend.

Parking can be a little if an issue.

Enjoyed our one night stay at this Hotel. Impressive façade. the staff that we interacted with were all helpful and friendly. It was a lot of fun reading a book in the lobby at night. The building was nicely restored, and updated to accommodate guests. the one suggestion I would have is that some of the painted trim in the rooms had wear, dark marks, scuffs on it. With all the woodwork so nice and clean, an occasional paint touch up on the trim would really loook nice. I would stray here again. Thanks.

The exterior architecture is spectacular only to be outdone upon entering the lobby. Will stay again the next time in Pittsburgh.

Receptionist at front desk was unfriendly during check-in and check-out. Acted as though we were bothering her. We made brunch reservations for the next morning at 10:15AM. The front desk (same lady) called at 9:30AM the next morning to say that they couldn't guarantee they would have a table for us at our reservation time. I asked if we could wait and was advised that they could not guarantee that they could seat us at all and suggested we cancel. No apology whatsoever.

A very elegant, spacious and convenient place to stay.
Excellent service and friendly staff.
It is a little old, but that is part of the vibe.

This is a lovely old mansion. The rooms are spacious and elegantly appointed. The restaurant is great. Parking is convenient (right next to the building). The service was impeccable. Seven out of five stars.
