Pittsburgh Hotel Needed

[branmack]

Looking for a nice hotel with indoor pool and free breakfast in Pittsburgh area.
We had to cancel free dining in Sept due to DH work commitments. Instead going shopping in Grove City and to the Pittsburgh Zoo. I was going to stay in Grove City one night but all the hotels are book.

Hoping my friends on DIS might be able to offer some help with this.

Thanks

Have you tried the Bestern western in grove city? It is almost across the street from the outlet. I just checked a couple of times in Sept and it comes up available.

The other option is to try for the Motel 8 $8.88 one night stay. Go to there website for details as only 800 rooms are available. They open the on-line booking only at 8pm tomorrow night and Friday night. 1st 800 get a room.

I tried to get on tonight but was too late. You have to be on right at 8pm to have any chance...

I live close to there.



OP>...If you want to be close to the Zoo, I'd pick a totally different hotel than to be close to Grove City. The outlets are about 1 1/2 hour from the Zoo. You could hit the Outlets either on your way in or on your way home and stay in the city. There is also a really nice Sandcastle Waterpark and a nice amusement park called Kennywood. I have to run out...but I'll link you to some things when I get back. (both of them have websites if you want to check them out) .

You didnt say how much you would like to spend but....

If you want to stay near the city..this one is really good

http://www.starwoodhotels.com/shera...eraton_Station_Square_Hotel_POP_060107_NAD_FM

and this is that area:

this one is northeast of the city approx 20 mins from the zoo and a little less expensive

We stayed at Springhill Suites in July. Had a huge free breakfast and indoor pool. We got it on www.priceline.com for $45. It had a seperate sitting area and small kitchenette.

Thank you to everyone for their help.

Best Western was one of my top choices for Grove City but surprisingly next Wed is sold out. I have also tried for 3 nights to get the $8.88 deal. No luck! I have tried all the Grove City hotels that I care to stay at and no rooms left that sleep four. I will check the night before we leave and again once we get there. I will get more shopping done if the DH & DS have a room to hang out in.
