Phase transition of the two- and three-state quantum Potts models on the Sierpinski pyramid are studied by means of a tensor network framework, the higher-order tensor renormalization group method. Critical values of the transverse magnetic field and the magnetic exponent $beta$ are evaluated. Despite the fact that the Hausdorff dimension of the Sierpinski pyramid is exactly two $( = log_2^{~} 4)$, the obtained critical properties show that the effective dimension is lower than two.
