wandb Posted March 12, 2022 #1 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Can anyone tell me the hotel AQV uses for the pre-cruise night in Pittsburg. It seems that somewhere I read that the Embassy Suites was the one, but now I can’t find that info. I need to reserve an extra night beforehand and don’t want to have to change hotels. Thanks!

wandb Posted March 12, 2022 Author #2 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Tried to correct the spelling to Pittsburgh, but when I tried to correct, it submitted the post! Tried again to correct, but could not find “edit”! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare CruiserFromMaine Posted March 23, 2022 #3 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I’m curious too. We’re getting off in Pittsburgh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called American Queen Voyages and talked to the nicest lady. Yes, the hotel is the Embassy Suites. It is located at 535 Smithfield St. downtown.

shipgeeks Posted March 28, 2022 #6 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Nice location! The hotel appears to be a remake from an elegant former bank building, if I am placing it correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted April 29, 2022 #7 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Just for fun, there is an aerial photo of Pittsburgh on the Royal Caribbean board. page 1,005 of the humour post. Your hotel will be not far behind the beginning of the buildings, and the boat will be on the left margin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandb Posted April 29, 2022 Author #8 Share Posted April 29, 2022 Just looked this up and can't seem to open the page. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I guess you have to know Pittsburgh, and probably some sci-fi, to appreciate it. The top one of the two photos is an aerial view of Pittsburgh, sandwiched between the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers. The riverboat will probably be docked at the far left, on the opposite bank of the Allegheny, and will sail onto the Ohio, which is formed by those two. The similarity of the two photos is the joke, in this case. For anyone else looking for it, the original is post #25,122, on page 1,005, in "To add some humour" on the Royal Caribbean board. 3 hours ago, wandb said: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted May 19, 2022 #10 Share Posted May 19, 2022 I received an AQ brochure today, which has a similar - but better - aerial view of Pittsburgh. Your hotel will be roughly in the center of the city buildings; the boat will probably (based on previous years) be docked in the white space to the left, below all the yellow bridges over the Allegheny River.

wandb Posted May 20, 2022 Author #11 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Thanks for all the info. My maps app has been a great help also. Just two weeks to go. Hope it isn't as hot and humid there as it is here in South Georgia!!! 😅🤪 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
