I found this hotel to be very dirty. We had booked 2 nights but only stayed for one. Upon arrival we were allocated a room, upon entering I found the room to be very dark and upon closer inspection there was hair around the bath and the toilet was dirty! We went to reception and they allocated us another room. This room opened up onto the pool area but the door was locked, again very dusty and dark. We couldn’t open the curtains to let in natural light as people opposite would be able to see into our room. I had a pretty terrible nights sleep (and extremely noisy air con) and upon going to breakfast the next morning one of the bins were full and weren’t emptied and the fruit that was out the raspberries had mould on them! Upon checking out after the first night, we spoke to the general manager who had agreed to refund us for our second night which was kind. I personally wouldn’t recommend to stay at this hotel as it made me feel dirty and itchy all day!

Loved that the rooms were named after authors! We were looking forward to having a drink in the Fox and Hounds prior to dinner, but the bar didn’t open until 5 and closed at 10 and we had dinner reservations /concert to go to. We hoped to jump in at 5 and grab a quick drink using our coupon, but it still did not open at 5! Complimentary breakfast was a pleasant surprise and included hot eggs, sausage, and lots of pastries. Would give 5 stars, but we like to have a cocktail prior to retiring for the evening at the hotel bar.

The decor is dark and over the top Tudor. Parking is inconvenient. The room was noisy and there was nowhere to hang the towels in the bathroom. The hotel shows signs of wear. The staff were helpful.

This is a very unique property with a British theme. The rooms are named after authors and the conference room has a Queen Elizabeth theme. We enjoyed relaxing in the lobby. It is a big property but feels like a boutique. Area felt safe. Very Near WashU and Forest Park. Loved the on site Italian restaurant and the wine shop with fresh bread one block away. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, but like so many people in St Louis (Uber drivers, restaurant staff etc), several hotel staff smelled heavily of weed as did the foyer and several exits. I guess a gummy won’t do the trick. My kids wanted to leave St Louis just to escape the weed smell.

A Great Place, Mostly
The lobby and halls and most of the room was very clean and the bed very comfortable. One issue was that two of the lights and the phone were not plugged in and I had to pull out two heavy tables to get to the plugs. It took about a half hour to get the phone charged enough to call the front desk. Also, when I pulled out one of the tables, there was a LOT of dust and fuzzy stuff along the wall behind it. If you are going to make a guest pull out a heavy table, at least clean behind it! Best thing about the place was the staff at the front desk. Very friendly and helpful.
