Top Bluff Hotel Reviews

The Landing Hotel at Rivers Casino

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great and clean. The only issue was there was food left in our fridge. Other than that we had a great experience. Everyone was very friendly and we had a great time."

Placemakr Downtown Pittsburgh at The Pennsylvanian

8/10 Good

"Loved the beautiful historic building! Staff were wonderful and so helpful! Units were very nice and roomy. Everything was very clean! Location was perfect to Strip District, downtown, DLL convention center, and even North Side if you don’t mind a walk. Check-in and parking were a bit of a problem but easily handled by front desk staff. GPS takes you to a paid parking lot beside the building and not into the actual entrance to the hotel. We loved the coffee machine in the lobby!! It’s amazing!"
