Maybe you’re a resident looking for a staycation, or an out-of-towner searching for accommodations near Acrisure Stadium for the big game — or the NFL Draft. The three-day event will take place April 23-25, 2026 in Pittsburgh.

Whatever the reason, Pittsburgh is filled with standout places to stay thanks to its varied mix of housing stock, which ranges from the historical to the contemporary.

And hey, just because you’re in town for some football doesn’t mean you also can’t explore other North Side destinations such as the Warhol Museum or the National Aviary. The beauty of staying in the city is there are plenty of things to see, do and eat, all within a 10-minute walk.

If that sounds like you, check out these black-and-gold-certified stays that will put you at the center of Pittsburgh’s best offerings.
