One of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed in!
My wife and I decided to have a "romantic weekend" close to home and chose the Fairmont Hotel. Great choice! The lobby is very cosy and spacious. I like that fact that you have to have a room key to get to the rooms. Our room was quiet and had great views of downtown Pittsburgh and PNC Park. They even supply in room binoculars that you came buy for $150 if you would like to keep them.
My only true complaint is that we requested a king bed room well in advance but all they had available were double queen bed rooms when we checked in. :( The room was well laid out and reminded me of the rooms at Wynn Las Vegas. The bathroom is nice with a separate tub and shower. Lots of towels and soft bath robes. I just wish they offered a TV in the bathroom and slippers like Wynn as I left mine at home by mistake.
The TV was a Phipps HDTV with true HD channels. The bed was heavenly! It was either a Sealy or Serta. I can't remember. I haven't slept good like that in a long time. The in room bar had everything that you could possibly need to get you night off to a good start including a bottle of wine and two glasses. (Insider Tip: There is a Wine & Spirits store directly across the street on Liberty Avenue next to Fifth Avenue Place.) There are tons of treats and snacks in the room also.
The closet only had a few hangers that we had to share but, has a good bit of storage with plenty of shelves and a in room safe that was too small for my 17.3" laptop.
The desk had tons of inputs that work with the TV like 3.5mm audio, HDMI, iphone/ipod inputs, inputs for video game consoles, USB chargers, VGA connectors and plenty of electrical outlets.
They also offer a Saks Fifth Avenue shopping experience great for the out of town fashionista of well dressed metrosexual.
All in all a great place to stay while in Pittsburgh!
