The Industrialist Hotel Set to Open on Wood Street this Spring

Monday, January 18, 2021

Marriott International’s Autograph Collection has announced the opening of The Industrialist Hotel, Autograph Collection, a 124-room hotel located in the heart of Pittsburgh’s Downtown along Wood Street, expected in Spring 2021.  

The new hotel will be housed in the 18-story historic Arrott Building with reimagined interiors inspired by Pittsburgh’s famous history as a steel capital. The building, built in 1902 for James Arrott, once considered the “Bathtub King of Pittsburg” as he was the first in the region to offer enameled iron bathtubs through his Standard Manufacturing Co. Business, was added to the Pittsburgh History and Landmarks Foundation Historic Landmarks list in 2000. Just one of the few boutique properties in Downtown Pittsburgh, the hotel’s name, “The Industrialist,” honors the city’s legacy for American ingenuity while capturing the story of the new Industrialists who are reinventing Pittsburgh into what it is today. 

Designed by esteemed firm Stonehill Taylor, the hotel’s accommodations and amenities comprise 124 guestrooms, including 28 stylish suites, a vibrant lobby bar, a fitness center, and the forthcoming signature modern American restaurant, The Rebel Room. The hotel’s design creatively preserves the building’s architectural details from the early 1900s while creating a vibrant place for locals and visitors alike to gather. The Industrialist will also feature more than 1,200 square feet of multi-purpose event space, for meetings and social events. 

The hotel’s lobby and lounge, the social hub of the hotel, will be located on the second floor, where guests will find a DIY-workshop-meets-bar, featuring a “maker menu” with tools and kits to create a variety of projects to take home, embodying the maker spirit for which Pittsburgh is known. 

The Industrialist is located at 405 Wood Street, Pittsburgh, PA, 1522. Reservations will be available beginning March 21, 2021. For more information, please visit the hotel website, or call (412) 430-4444.
