Top Downtown West Hotel Reviews

Pear Tree Inn St. Louis Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The service is great and fast! Room was clean and hotel was very quiet and peaceful."

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis Union Station

8/10 Good

"The staff was friendly and helpful. As we were checking in a busload showed up and staff had us wait a minute, but thanked us and gave us free parking. When our air conditioning wasn't working properly, they gave us advice on getting it to work and brought us a fan. It worked after the advice. They had a great perk of drinks and appetizers, but we didn't have time to partake. Breakfast was delicious. We would definitely visit again!"

Home2 Suites by Hilton St. Louis Downtown

8/10 Good

"Clean rooms, friendly helpful staff, nice complimentary breakfast and nighttime security make this hotel an incredible value. The location is great too. The beds and pillows are not comfortable but they were very clean. This is not really an issue if traveling for business. I recommend this property."
