Top hotels in Oakwood
Wyndham Grand Pittsburgh Downtown
Large dated hotel, smaller rooms and not great sound proofing. Super friendly staff, great location to access local amenities. Only valet parking was available for a hefty fee. Clean surroundings and felt incredibly safe and inviting to explore around town at any hour.

Joinery Hotel Pittsburgh, Curio Collection by Hilton
This Hilton Hotel was conveniently located to the venue we were attending for a wedding. We were able to walk to the wedding and reception and walked back to the hotel after. There was a parking garage next to the hotel that we used and was reasonably priced.
