Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Lawrenceville, Pittsburgh

We had a great stay at Deena's AirBnb. We were in town for a family reunion in the neighborhood, and this location was incredibly convenient and comfortable. The listing and photos are all accurate, and the location provides easy access to both downtown Pittsburgh and the town of Bellevue for restaurants. We will definitely book here again when returning to the area.

Christine was very helpful with providing information about the stay, and went above and beyond in regards to communication. More AirBnB's (and their hosts) should be like this. Very clean. Very comfy. Perfect accommodations.

Jill’s place is one of the best Airbnbs I’ve stayed at — very spacious, very clean, and not far from anything you could want to do in Pittsburgh. Highly recommend.

Very nice place in a very happening part of Pittsburgh.

The home was extremely clean and well kept. The pictures offer a good representation of the property. The owner is extremely responsive and helpful. Will definitely stay here again.

We had a mini family reunion in Pittsburgh and stayed at Huang’s lovely home. If I could give it a 5-plus review, I would. My four adult children were so impressed and the grandchildren loved it. We were able to appreciate time on the backyard patio while the kids loved the fenced in yard with the swing set, playhouse and sandbox. Inside the house, the kids and adults enjoyed the Pac-Man and basketball games. The bedding, pillows, towels, were all above par. In my opinion, everything exceeded expectations. The house is lovely, warm, and welcoming. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need, including 2 full-size refrigerators. Honestly, I can’t express how much we enjoyed our stay. Thank you Huang, for your hospitality and responsiveness. If anyone is looking for a home away from home, “Sweet Home in Pitt” is the place!

We had a lovely long weekend at Mary Beth's home. The house was so welcoming and comfortable. We loved the little TV room which was so cozy, or sinking into the plush sofa in the living room. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed. We didn't cook any meals, but we definitely could have. The largest bedroom had a cute little office adjoining. Fortunately we did not have to work, but it would have been perfect for those moments when working from home needs to mesh with travel. This was one of the favorite places we have ever stayed, and we have stayed in many. It was spotless, the linens and beds were comfortable, even the pillows were good! I drag so much stuff with me when traveling, and I could have left most of it at home! The neighborhood was stunning, the architecture of Pittsburgh homes is so charming. I hope we can stay here again in the warmer weather to truly appreciate the neighborhood.

Such a cute place! Would stay here again. Came for a pirates game and sadly it rained quite a bit, so we didn’t get to use the patio space. It was within walking distance to PNC park and Heinz field as well as some cute bars and restaurants (we recommend Monterey’s) Very safe neighborhood with Ubers readily available. The only thing with this Airbnb are the stairs are quite steep, so some people with mobility issues may find the 3rd floor room with the king bed challenging. The bathroom also had a bit of an ant problem, but there were ant traps out for them. Other than they we very much enjoyed our stay and would consider staying again for events in the future!

Had a great weekend stay at this location in Bloomfield. Very close to a mix of bars, cafes, and restaurants all within walking distance. The space itself was very clean, and had a full fridge, stove, and dishwasher for meal prep. Very clear instructions from the host and I'd stay here again.

This was a great place to stay and I would say the reality was better than the pictures. Very clean and great quality from the furniture to the towels. Nice neighborhood that felt safe and family friendly. So much better experience than a hotel- we hope to be back again and will for sure be the first place we check. David is top notch

Shadina was a fascinating host! The place was worth every penny and would definitely recommend it to anyone that would like a relaxing and “right at home” stay!

We have stayed in the same place three times…it is very bright and cheerful. Love the neighborhood, close to Shadyside, Lawrencville, Oakland. Nice coffee shop eatery close by on the corner. Cannot beat the parking in the back of house!

Alex’s place was great. The location was perfect. It was a very walkable neighborhood but most of all it was a quiet neighborhood.

Jon’s place was a great find. His providing some basic staples for breakfast and snacks is a great touch. Way above expectations, especially when arriving close to midnight.

I traveled to Pittsburgh for a conference and, after careful consideration, chose Natalia’s place for our stay. From the very beginning, Natalia was a great communicator—she provided all the necessary details and clear check-in instructions well in advance. When we arrived, we noticed the apartment hadn’t been cleaned or prepared for our stay. We immediately reached out to Natalia, and she responded promptly and professionally. She acknowledged the issue, which was due to a last-minute calendar mix-up, and within minutes offered us an alternative apartment in the same building that was clean, ready, and comfortable. The rest of our stay in Pittsburgh was smooth and peaceful. The apartment was in a quiet neighborhood and well-connected by public transport—perfect for getting around the city with ease. Natalia handled the unexpected situation with grace and efficiency. She’s a true Superhost, and I would highly recommend her place to anyone visiting Pittsburgh!

Even though Anne & Jim’s place is absolutely in the city, I couldn’t believe how quiet it was once inside. It’s got rustic, vintage decor, is very clean and reminded me a little of being in a cabin, especially the wood paneled bedroom. There are many thoughtful amenities, more so than most Airbnb’s, and though I didn’t cook, it’s a well-equipped kitchen. There’s a ramp which may be helpful to those who have trouble with stairs; once inside it’s split level. I always found parking right in front—a major plus. Even in frigid weather it was cozy inside.

My daughter had to be in the Pittsburgh area for two weeks due to a school requirement. Michael met her there at check in, and made sure she had everything she needed. And, he graciously gave her a late check out since her flight didn’t leave until later in the evening. Everything went smoothly, and this mom was happy she was safe, and grateful for Michael and Michelle’s help.

We were comfortable and felt at home. Everything we needed was there, and the amenities were thoughtful and practical. Loved the city view at night.

Fantastic place right in downtown Pittsburgh! This was perfect for my work trip. Apartment is in a historic building, extremely clean, has everything you need. The view is also amazing. Great value for the money. My flight to Pittsburgh was delayed by 5 hours and Lavaugh was very responsive about any changes for checking in. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone traveling to Pittsburgh!

We have stayed here multiple times. I hope that tells everyone just how fantastic this home is. We just keep coming back for more! We highly recommend this home with great accommodations and an amazing view of Pittsburgh!

Okay so let’s be candid here. This place is exactly as described. The furniture is sparse, the walls are bare, there are a plethora of stairs to get up to the unit, and everytime I came back in the evening I had to go into the restaurant and speak to the manger to have him move cars. The place was very clean in the way that an apartment of this type can ever feel clean, which is only partially. This is not a hotel, this is not spa, this is the most affordable AirBnB I could find in the best location for the price. It was perfect for me! Having a secure free spot to park (even if I had to campaign for it every night) was worth the cost. The location is fantastic, the host is incredibly communicative, the bed is comfortable, the water is hot, the bathroom is nice, and the place is cleaned. Otherwise, there are no frills or charm to be found in the unit itself, but that’s not why I booked it. This was the perfect AirBnB for me and my needs.

My family and I had a lovely stay here over the holidays. Parking is easy, and it was easy to access the unit. Everything was clean and comfortable, and was very little noise from the street. The bathroom having a heated floor was a nice perk as well! Would stay here on another visit :) thank you to our hosts!

John's place was perfectly as described. Nice quiet neighborhood, and with good public transit access (which can be rare in Pittsburgh). I'd recommend to anyone coming to town for an event, but not necessarily being right downtown. The place was well set up for an extended stay as well, better equipped than most long term rentals I've used.

Super walkable area! Spacious for a downtown spot and the host was responsive and let us drop our bags early when our flight unexpectedly came in earlier than we planned which was very appreciated since we didn’t have to carry it all around the city!
