"The manager was very helpful. I thought that he couldn’t find my second room reservation, but it turned out that when Expedia asked me for the person name for the second room, they actually put that person‘s name on the reservation, even though I was making the reservation and paying for both rooms. So a note – if you’re reserving more than 1 room for traveling companions or family members, put your name on all of the rooms."

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis at the Arch

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis at the Arch

10/10 Excellent
"Staff was incredibly friendly in every interaction. Always asking if all was ok, if we’re having fun, did we do anything interesting that day. On weekends there’s a free Buffett dinner and bar drinks (5:30-7pm). Free daily breakfast was extensive. Very close to Gateway Arch, Busch Stadium and downtown parks. Convenient parking garage."
