Editorial Review for Omni William Penn Hotel – by Gayot.com

The Scene
This historic, sky-scraping, 1916 building could compete with the best of them among the classic brick architecture of New York City. While it offers excellent contemporary amenities, its finest feature is that it has maintained the integrity of many of its original spaces, such as the beautiful William Penn Ballroom with its antique crystal chandeliers and gold leaf railings.

The Details
The elegant lobby is Old-World European in style, from its high archways to its abundance of potted palms. The guest rooms and suites are done in subtle taupe and off-white. Guests have their choice of pillows (foam, feather or down) upon request, and of course there are the chain's signature Get Fit Guest Rooms with portable treadmills, healthy snacks and Get Fit Kits. The Terrace Room serves continental cuisine with Mediterranean flair. For quick, casual eats, a Starbucks and Brueggers Bagels are located in the lobby. The hotel is busiest during the weekdays with convention and corporate crowds. On weekends during football season, it attracts its fair share of Steelers fans.

User Reviews for Omni William Penn Hotel

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

02/17/2007 Posted by devonmc

I am a Pittsburgh resident and have never been an overnight guest at the hotel. However, I have been there several times and highly recommend it for the following: business meetings, social events, lunch, and informal meetings in the lobby. This hotel is one of the only in Pittsburgh to have true old-world charm and grandeur. The Terrace Room is an excellent choice for an elegant lunch- business or pleasure. The lobby is beautiful and also a lovely spot for meeting with friends, an informal business meeting, or for High Tea. The staff including the valet service, front desk, and concierge are all extremely professional and friendly.

3 Star Rating: Average

I will start by saying that this hotel is not bad, it is just not a luxury hotel. The rooms are clean, but they are not modern. The elevators are slow and so old that they are scary. If you are looking for a hotel with old world charm and even romantic then this hotel might work for you. I might choose this hotel for a romantic get way but as a business traveler who needs like reliable high speed internet, then you should choose another hotel. The staff was warm and friendly, the lobby was comfortable, but when it comes having the tools to be effective at getting your job done it was frustrating.

Pros: Charming

Cons: high speed internet not reliable
