The Spotlight on Traveler's Rest Hotel

Your Laid-Back Base in Pittsburgh’s South Side

Modern, welcoming, and perfectly located, Traveler's Rest Hotel offers a relaxed stay in the heart of Pittsburgh’s lively South Side district. With clean, comfortable rooms, a shared kitchen, and free WiFi throughout, this 3-star hotel is a favorite for visitors looking to stay close to the action without the fuss.

Why Concert-goers love it

Just a short ride or walk from key music venues like Stage AE and the Petersen Events Center, Traveler’s Rest puts you near Pittsburgh’s vibrant live music scene. After a high-energy night out, guests love returning to the quieter neighborhood vibe of South Side. The hotel’s late 4:00 PM check-in and easy access to rideshare services make it a smooth option for those arriving just in time for a show. Plus, the communal lounge is a great spot to swap stories with fellow music fans.

Who this Hotel is great for

Groups of friends looking for an affordable, social base
Solo travelers on a music pilgrimage
Couples planning a weekend concert getaway
Fans who want a calm place to recharge after the show
Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to compromise on style

Food and Drink Options

Start your day with an Italian breakfast—perfect for when you’ve been out late the night before. While there’s no on-site restaurant, the shared kitchen lets you prep your own midnight snacks, and the surrounding South Side neighborhood is packed with late-night eateries within walking distance. Whether you crave pizza at 2 a.m. or a hearty brunch the next morning, you’re covered.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is a chill zone, you’re just steps away from bars, lounges, and local pubs scattered across Carson Street. Whether you’re after craft beer or a low-key cocktail, the South Side delivers. Don’t miss out on catching local talent at nearby small venues, making it easy to keep the music going well after the main act.

What People Say

Guests praise the cleanliness of the rooms, the friendly staff, and the welcoming, unpretentious atmosphere. Many also love the convenience of the shared kitchen and the hotel’s great value for its location. It’s often described as a “hidden gem” for travelers who want comfort without the downtown price tag.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mentioned that the lack of an elevator could be inconvenient if you’re carrying lots of gear or luggage. Also, while the vibe is relaxed, don’t expect luxury amenities—this is a no-frills spot focused on comfort and location.

The Bottom Line

If you’re in town for the show and want a cozy, affordable place to crash that’s close to Pittsburgh’s top venues, Traveler’s Rest Hotel hits the right notes.

Clean, well maintained, and kind...

Liked: The room was spacious and the bathroom was super clean. Towels were provided and while I didn't take advantage of the breakfast, the granola bars were readily available. They allowed us to stow our bags for an afternoon flight too!

Superb

Liked: Wonderfully unique place to stay, but not for everyone. Bathroom was private, but across the hall. All super clean and everyone was very friendly. The building is wonderful with its old wood accents. Breakfast in the great room was plenty, but it is what you make of it as it is self service. There were books, games and guitars for everyone to enjoy. Great view of downtown across the Monongahela and short drive to the incline, Station Square and downtown.
Disliked: Neighborhood had quite a few boarded up or empty places, but revitalization is also evident. AC was turned too low for our taste, but that's personal preference.

Good time started our GAP...

Liked: Friendly Staff & Owners Paul & MaryBeth & Peabody. Lots of choices at breakfast. Paul suggested long term parking @ Station Square while we rode the GAP which saved money - Yes!

Our stay at Travelers Rest...

Liked: This was a perfect stay for GAP Trail riders! We loved so many things . . . it was close to the Trailhead and Pittsburgh sights, had a garage to park our bikes (complete with tools, if needed), the common/eating area was a fun place to chat with our lovely hosts and other bikers, and the history and uniqueness of the building was amazing! Definitely, a must stay place!!!
Disliked: I can't think of anything that we didn't like!

Exceptional

Liked: The self-serve breakfast options were extensive. Due to time constraints, we only took advantage of the grab and go yogurt and fruit, but they had pancakes and other options as well.
