Hampton Inn St. Louis-Downtown (At the Gateway Arch)

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is located in a great location, close to the Gateway Arch and the ballpark where the Cardinals play. There were numerous fun restaurants within walking distance, and we felt safe except down by the Old Spaghetti Factory. I would stay in this hotel again and recommend it to others."

Clayton Plaza Hotel & Extended Stay

8/10 Good

"Hotel staff were excellent, friendly, professional and by far the best reason to re-book. The hotel itself was very clean, located near professional buildings/courts and some eateries within walking distance. The room was clean as well and nicely proportioned with some of the best mattresses/bedding I've experienced. Only slight downside was the breakfast bar--the food and choices were ample and very good (especially the made to order omelets and waffles) but the setting was less than clean and rather worn--not in keeping with the rest of the hotel. All in all, a great place to stay and would definitely book again."
