Top Museum at the Gateway Arch Hotel Reviews

Pear Tree Inn St. Louis Near Union Station

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was in a great location, walkable to the arch and union station. The staff was top notch, very friendly and helpful. The breakfast in the morning was always delicious and the wind down with free drinks and snacks was a nice surprise amenity. Next trip to St Louis I will defiantly stay here again. Also, the free parking was a huge plus as well."

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis Union Station

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the location, amenities and large room with comfortable bed. We were able to walk to Enterprise Center. Particularly enjoyed the happy hour and breakfast. Did not appreciate the noise from the garbage collectors handling the huge dumpsters around 4am. For an upscale quality hotel you should contract to have quiet hours like midnight to 8am with any businesses your guest rooms face."

"Overall a good experience, hot water was non existent however which was the only disappointment"
