Pittsburgh is a major metropolitan area and is therefore littered with
a series of meeting rooms and hotel convention centers. The possibility
of usage for these places should be determined by pricing and
accessibility along with a sense of how long the facility will be in
use. Here is a rundown of the city of Pittsburgh's preferred meeting
rooms, hotels, and convention centers.
David L Lawrence Convention CenterThe
David L. Lawrence Convention Center, a 1,500,000- square foot
exhibition building that is located neatly along the scenic Allegheny
shoreline. The David L. Lawrence boasts of having 313,400 feet of
presentation accommodations and has two, 250-seat lecture halls. For
those traveling from out of town, there are plenty of
hotels near the Pittsburgh Convention Center.
The Doubletree in PittsburghIf you're looking for
business meeting areas in Pittsburgh
or a hotel room near the convention center, The Doubletree suites and
Pittsburgh City Center is an excellent choice. The rooms of the
Doubletree in Pittsburgh hold Queen and King-sized beds, provide cable
television, and furnish the inhabitant with a large writing and working
space with comfortable seating. All of the other "extras" are added as
well to make sure that each guest has a very pleasant stay. Doubletree
provides the businessman/woman with several options on meeting room
styles with intimate boardroom-style settings, the classroom style
meeting space, or a theater-style room.
The Renaissance Pittsburgh
The
Renaissance Pittsburgh on 107th Street is a grand, historical brick
building in the down town region of the city. The hotel is 10,000
square feet of history and elegance with a colorful and cheery modern
atmosphere. The 291 rooms feature wonderful antique furniture, like
four-poster beds and cherry finished writing desks with brass fixtures.
Parking depends on where and when. There is valet parking at $25. The
off-site parking fee is $5, or you can choose to park all day for $10
in the garage, across from the hotel. For meeting rooms, the
Renaissance Pittsburgh offers 10 arrangements, including their
