Top Ellis Island Hotel Reviews

Pear Tree Inn St. Louis Airport

10/10 Excellent

"We had a pleasant stay here. Lots to do nearby. Would recommend."

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis Union Station

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean and well-maintained. Staff was friendly and the amenities were very generous. Beautiful historical hotel. Close to the Aquarium and various restaurants."

Hyatt Regency St. Louis at The Arch

8/10 Good

"Exceptional location and you can literally walk outside to the archway. Super clean, nice staff, clean rooms. I was there for work where I could have gone to others for cheaper but not likely the view and location. Only downside was the garage system was not working all weekend, so self parking was a bit problematic, but I know that stuff happens. I would love to stay there if I come back in town."

"Great location Downtown. Staff were great. Parking on street is fine."
