Travel and Accomodations

Travel Note

Entering the city

If you're flying in or coming from the west, we highly recommend entering the city via 376 through the Fort Pitt Tunnel. Google will most likely bring you this way anyway. It's the best entrance to any city in the world. You will not be disappointed! And we're very proud of this entrance here in Pittsburgh! *If you're coming from the north or the east, this will be out of your way. Navigate to Greentree and then back to the hotel if you want the experience though!

Travel Note

Getting Lost

Another travel tip: you will get lost in this city. With three rivers running through it and being surrounded by mountains our roads resemble spaghetti rather than a grid. Our roads and traffic patterns are confusing and we Pittsburghers know it. Fortunately the city is pretty small so your detour will never be a long one.

Hotel

Embassy Suites by Hilton Pittsburgh Downtown

This is the link to the block that has been set aside for our guests. Use the link to get the group rate. The hotel lobby is on the top floor of the building. When entering, use the elevators on the left to go to the top floor to check in. (and sneak a peak at this beautiful city while you're up there)

Hotel

N/A

If the hustle and bustle of downtown isn't for you, any hotel in the north hills is a great option. You'll likely want to stay somewhere near I-279, which will provide easy access directly to the city.

Flight

Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT)

This is the only airport in the area. All the major car rentals are in the airport as well.
