Parking was 110$ and they only had one person doing valet. Since everyone’s check out time is the same, it took a long time to get our car. This wouldn’t be a big deal, but I do feel the rate is pricey for the specific service. The hotel was also overbooked and I was unable to get the room I booked. The location was nice as it was close to many different things downtown. However, I don’t think I would stay here again. There are nicer hotels in the area that don’t cost much more.

Nice hotel with valet parkingnear the Gateway Arch

The hotel is a walking distance to the Gateway Arch, which was the goal of my trip to St Louis. The $55 valet parking added extra cost to my hotel night. The hotel was clean, comfortable and professionally ran. Several restaurants and historical buildings nearby, and I really enjoyed the Gateway Arch and Museum the next morning.

For the price it’s a good option in St Louis

We booked this hotel as it was the a good price compared to others that were closer to Busch Stadium, which was the reason for our visit. First impressions of the area were that it was a bit shady - a lot of druggies within a couple of blocks walk. The hotel had its own security guards 24/7 which on one hand was nice but on the other hand makes you wonder why it’s needed. The staff were all really helpful, and a special Thank you to Coco who kept the breakfast area well stocked and managed. We loved the old building and that it had kept original features from when it was a Shell Co office. The only thing I did not like was the bedding. I have never seen it before but the bed had a duvet cover that wasn’t a full cover. Hard to explain but it was like a cape for the duvet, the duvet wasn’t enclosed in a cover as such, but it was like the top edge of the duvet had a fold over on it. What this meant was that unless you slept completely still the duvet came out of it’s cover all the time, and while the cover may be washed after every guest the duvet most certainly wasn’t. I hated knowing when I woke with the duvet touching me that it had been around the faces and bodies of loads of others without a clean. I have a photo to try and show the difference in the colour duvet compared to the cover. What we should have done was just take off the duvet and use the sheet. I would stay here again and that’s what I would do next time.

The front desk staff were amazing and kind at check in. When we arrived in our room, I realized no towels, washclothes etc were left. We called the front desk, they said they would get them up there and we left for our event. When arriving back from event, it was late. No towels still. We called front desk, they said we would have to come get them.

My son and I checked in for one night to go to the Shinedown concert at the Enterprise center. It's a little tough to get to because of construction and they need more valet attendant's. It's a beautiful hotel.
