We really liked the Traveler's Rest Hotel - but it's definitely atypical, so if you prefer chain hotels, this is not for you. In a carefully restored historic building with lots of character, Traveler's Rest feels a little more like a large bed & breakfast. Our bathroom was a short walk down the hall - but it was private, and sparklingly clean. Breakfast is in a shared common room (like a large living room) with lots of food choices, good coffee, and friendly conversation.

Very friendly, personable owners. Great place. Nice schwag (I bought a shirt). Lovely old place with a homey feel. They gave us all sorts of information and know a lot about the area and little nooks of town.
They have a sweet dog.

Our stay was just fine, but it started out a bit rocky. I never received an email from Hotels.com with our check-in instructions and door code. When we arrived, checked again for the email while it was pouring down rain. Luckily, we found a phone number of the hostel and talked with owner that walked us through getting in the front door. Once in, we found the hostel very charming. We were surprised by the small room and lack of TV. Our own private bathroom was across the hall. But the code to get in the bathroom is the same code as the front door. And since we didn’t get the email from Hotels.com, we had to contact the owner again to get the code. The next morning, we were able to meet and talk with the owners, who were very friendly and told us all about the history of the building.

Our stay was utterly delightful. The owners responded promptly to my texted questions before we arrived; this turned out to be a preview of impeccable customer service and a wonderful experience overall. The house is gorgeous, the kitchen comfortable, and the people fun to talk to. My husband and our two teenagers were initially hesitant about the detached bathroom. But we all found the arrangements to be great. The bathroom is completely private and toiletries can be left inside with the door locked. The location was convenient for driving to PNC Park and walking to restaurants and the Monongahela Incline. Not only would we stay there again, we'll recommend it to everyone.

If you want to stay in a historic building with some beautiful woodwork and unplug in homey rooms, this is a great place. My husband and a friend stayed in the corner suite which used to be the offices and board room of an industrial mogul during the industrial revolution and early 20's. Gorgeous high ceilings and woodwork. We found out when we met the owners (very nice people) that they cyclists and apparently there is a city bike trail so many cyclists like to stay there. We were in town for a hockey game. There are some continental breakfast options each morning. As FYI there is no onsite room service but the owners are very available. When your confirmation is sent, they will send you a door code. We would certainly stay here again. Charming building!
