Yet again The Kimpton hits a home run with The Pittsburgh Monaco!
I come to Pittsburgh quite often for business and I was anxiously waiting for the Pittsburgh Monaco to open. As with every Kimpton I have visited (which is many) they didn't disappoint. The staff at every Kimpton is truly too-notch. Erin, Charles, and Myles couldn't have been more helpful. I even met a gent working on the elevators who told me he was just hired by Kimpton after working on the Labor team to get the property up and running. He couldn't have been happier. Hell, I have yet to meet a disgruntled Kimpton employee.
It's a beautiful property with a very cool color scheme in the rooms. I got one of the standard rooms this time (I have heard that the suites with the tubs are gorgeous too) and it was perfect. I absolutely love the bird cages and lamps in each room..so funky. They also have a very spacious workout facility with free weights, kettle balls, a multi precor machine, and about 8 cardio machines. The attached restaurant (The Commoner) is wonderful, just like most of the restaurants / bars affiliated with The Kimpton Brand.
I'm so happy that the Kimpton Brand is expanding. They just seem to never miss and The Pittsburgh Monaco is just another example of this. Well done!!
