Whether you’re interested in history, dining, the arts or simply exploring a dynamic urban landscape, Pittsburgh has something for everyone. 

Preferred hotels 

The 2025 Kiwanis International Convention will be held in the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, which is within easy walking distance of Kiwanis’ preferred hotels. You’ll also have easy access to restaurants, shopping and attractions.  

One of the benefits of being a Kiwanian: preferred rates at our preferred convention hotels. Don’t wait! The deadline to book a room at the discounted rate is June 1, 2025, or until the hotel is sold out — whichever happens first.  

Book your room by clicking on the cost per night below the description of the hotel. Convention attendees may book a room with any hotel within the Kiwanis block. The district designations are suggestions. These special rates are only available through kiwanis.org, so please book your room directly online. 

Note: There are no shuttles as the official hotels are all near the convention center.
