Although I don't write a ton of hotel reviews, Cambria Suites definintely deserves not only a mention, but also some big kudos for the enjoyable weekend we experienced here recently.
+ Location directly next to Consol Energy Center (it's right there in the name!) was perfect for the main purpose of our trip: seeing the Penguins in action.
+ Spacious suite with mini-kitchen, living area and king size-bed. Plus there were two flat screen TVs for the limited time we were actually not out exploring and enjoying the 'Burgh.
+ Although parking is $14/day, it is in their own attached lot (on top of the Consol parking garage) conveniently located directly behind the hotel.
+ Extremely friendly and helpful front desk staff who were more than willing to help with everything, including complimentary shuttle service to anywhere within a couple of miles of the hotel. Also, has its own bar and restaurant.
+ Affordable and comparable cost to the other surrounding hotels.
Yeah, I would have no issue coming back here again. Heck, maybe even for the Stanley Cup finals this summer? :)
