New Pittsburgh Hotel Showcases Culture

PITTSBURGH

InterContinental Hotels Group's (IHG) Hotel Indigo brand just opened its first hotel in Pennsylvania, the 135-room Hotel Indigo Pittsburgh East Liberty.

Located at 123 North Highland Avenue, the unique hotel is both an adaptive reuse and new-build property comprised of four buildings representing four different eras of Pittsburgh's history, including the building that formerly housed the Governor Hotel. The boutique hotel sits in the heart of Pittsburgh's rejuvenated and thriving cultural district making it easy to discover the local neighborhood scene.

When guests first arrive at the Hotel Indigo Pittsburgh East Liberty, they will be greeted by staff outfitted in uniforms custom created by local designer Kiya Tomlin. Guests will immediately be drawn further into the hotel by the art, photography and architecture incorporated into the hotel's design, which uniquely brings East Liberty's theatrical neighborhood story to life at every touch point. The guest room décor features a nod to the majestic theatre era with a velvet curtain entrance, theatre inspired murals and lamps designed to mirror stage lights, while photo stills of vintage movie Academy Leaders mark each floor in front of the guest elevators.

At the hotel's restaurant and bar, Wallace's TapRoom, guests can enjoy an American Tavern style menu along with one of many signature cocktails. Guest rooms feature plush bedding, hard-surface flooring with area rugs and spa-inspired bathrooms. In addition, the hotel features a two-room Governor's Suite which offers a private sitting parlor, bar area and master suite with a separate powder room.

Guests also have access to a 24-hour fitness center and 2,400 square feet of meeting space. The Pittsburgh hotel features the brand's Neighborhood Guide, an innovative touchscreen display that connects guests to each other, the local neighborhood and to Hotel Indigo locations around the world.

Hotel team members, many of whom are locals themselves, will share their favorite hidden gems with guests looking to explore and discover the neighborhood.

The Hotel Indigo Pittsburgh East Liberty hotel is owned by Governor's Hotel Company, and managed by IHG.
