Phipps has one room that is not accessible. The rest should be accessible unless they’ve changed something.

Probably Kennywood TBH. Phipps and Botanic Gardens you’d probably have to skip some parts.

All of Phipps is wheelchair-friendly (elevators as well) with the exception of one room (which I believe is called the Stove Room) and really wasn't decorated for the holiday. The tropical forest is accessible, but the path down to the lower level is an incline, although I've seen strollers and wagons on it and they didn't seem to have a problem. At the bottom, there is an elevator back up to the conservatory level. Wear shoes that are a little "grippy" though, the humidity level and waterfall splashing can make the paths a little slippery at times.

This is correct. The Stove Room is where they do the butterfly garden, but at this time of year, you're not really missing much by skipping it.
