Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis at the Arch

8/10 Good
"I enjoyed almost everything about my one-night stay at the Drury. My room and bed were comfortable with working air-conditioning. Staff was super friendly. The 5:30 kick back basically served an entire meal with 3 alcoholic beverages included. Because I had dinner reservations later, I only grabbed a hot dog and some coleslaw, but the drinks were very good and the food looked wonderful. The only reason I didn't give the hotel 5 stars was the check-in. If you are coming by car, there are two lanes in front of the hotel where you have to pull up on a very busy street (4th Street). I arrived 30 minutes before official check in time and the lanes were already full, so I had to circle the block a couple times. When I finally did get a spot and got checked in, I was trapped in the inner lane and had to wait for others to finish checking in before I could even proceed to the parking garage. Parking costs $32 and is in a poorly-designed garage with small spaces, many of which are partially taken up by support poles."
