The home turf of the NFL’s Steelers, Acrisure Stadium sits just outside downtown Pittsburgh on the north shore of the Allegheny River. When you come to town for a game at Acrisure (formerly known as Heinz Field), you can either stay in the stadium’s North Shore area—also home to PNC Park and the Pirates baseball team—or just over the river in downtown, near the Carnegie Science Center and the Andy Warhol Museum. Either way, here are the best hotels near Acrisure Stadium.

The Landing Hotel Pittsburgh (757 Casino Dr.; 412-231-7777) North Shore

This 210-room boutique hotel that’s part of the Rivers Casino complex has a brightly-colored, mod spirit inside, and views of either the stadium or the Allegheny River outside. Plus, it’s “a short walk to the stadium and not that far away from a bunch of restaurants,” writes a Google reviewer, while another user adds that “you can walk or jog the riverwalk.” A Tripadvisor user calls it a “fantastic hotel. We went for a couple of games and they allowed early check-in as well. Easy access to the casino and loved the free valet parking.” The hotel offers a free breakfast too. >> Book this hotel for less

Hyatt Place Pittsburgh-North Shore (260 N Shore Dr.; 412-321-3000) North Shore

For a short walk to the stadium—less than a half mile—plus low-key mainstream perks, stay at this Hyatt Place branch with amenities such as an indoor pool and a breakfast bar. “Location is the primary reason I chose this hotel,” writes a Google reviewer. “It sits between PNC Park and Acrisure Stadium. It’s also walking distance to Point State Park and many restaurants and bars.” One Tripadvisor user writes that “the breakfast was better than other hotels where I’ve stayed—more variety and choices. One kind staff member asked me if the oatmeal was thick enough.” >> Book this hotel for less

SpringHill Suites by Marriott Pittsburgh North Shore (223 Federal St.; 412-323-9005) North Shore

A little more than a half mile from Acrisure, this Springhill Suites offers all-suites lodging, an indoor pool plus free breakfast. While some online users say that the hotel could use an update, a Google reviewer writes that “the hotel is right next door to PNC Park where the Pirates play and you can see Acrisure Park close by as well. There is shopping and restaurants nearby too.” A Tripadvisor user adds that it’s “a short walk over the bridge to the heart of Pittsburgh. Breakfast was pretty standard—eggs, waffles, oatmeal, etc. >> Book this hotel for less

The Westin Pittsburgh (1000 Penn Ave.; 412-281-3700) Downtown

Across the river in downtown, this upscale property is still only a mile from Acrisure. While US News & World Report acknowledges that this 616-room Westin—with a walkway that connects to the convention center—is mostly a business hotel, “its central location on Penn Avenue and the city’s hockey arena, draws leisure travelers, too.” A Google reviewer writes that “its main strength is the downtown location, close enough for a pleasant walk to Acrisure.” >> Book this hotel for less

Fairmont Pittsburgh (510 Market St.; 412-773-8800) Downtown

A little more than a mile from Acrisure, this Fairmont offers easy access to the stadium, as well as generous, 420-square-foot rooms and a prime downtown location for exploring Pittsburgh. “For more luxe accommodations, The Fairmont is the place to be” in Pittsburgh, writes Condé Nast Traveler. A Google reviewer raves about “the great location. Easy to walk to PNC Park and the Warhol Museum and close to Market Square with views of the cityscape.” >> Book this hotel for less
