Top Alton Hotel Reviews

Clayton Plaza Hotel & Extended Stay

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very nice and clean. Bed and pillows were so comfy."

Hyatt Regency St. Louis at The Arch

10/10 Excellent

"Everything met our expectations."

Moonrise Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Super cool hotel, fun location, and it's clean"

The West End

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms and hallways were so nice and clean! No carpet anywhere, which i really liked. The staff was very helpful. They do have a parking garage you can use for $15 a day, which was well worth it. This hotel is within walking distance of Five Guys restaurant and the Cathedral Basilica. Probably other places too, depending on how much you want to walk, but those are the places we walked to. I will definitely stay there again!"

Home2 Suites by Hilton St. Louis Downtown

8/10 Good

"Good location within walking distance to some restaurants and bars. Nice, spacious rooms. We were put in a room with a roll-in shower which we didn’t need and the shower water flowed through half the bathroom and one morning it also flowed into the non-carpeted hallway. Strange design but not a dealbreaker. The pocket door on the bathroom only closed about 1/3 of the way so there was no bathroom privacy. 😂 One of the window shades also did not work. I asked for maintenance but it never got fixed. These were small annoyances but overall it was a nice property. The free breakfast was much appreciated! My parents stayed in this hotel with us and everything was perfect in their room. I would actually recommend this hotel in spite of the little repairs needed in our room. Also, most of the staff team were very friendly and helpful particularly a young man who was stocking and cleaning the breakfast area. He did an amazing job! Great worker!"

Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis Union Station

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff, laundry room was clean and machines worked good. Food was excellent for breakfast and kick-back. Willing to help with any questions and just overall what a wonderful stay."

Pear Tree Inn St. Louis Near Union Station

10/10 Excellent

"The food and drink options were perfect. This place is amazing for kids! Pet friendly! Walking distance to some great stuff. Our air stopped working at some point. That and the stuff splattered all over the curtains were the only negative. Will 100% use them in the future!"

Courtyard by Marriott St. Louis Downtown/Convention Center

8/10 Good

"Best part was proximity to the concert venue. The only negative was it lacked a free breakfast. Comfy. Clean. Quiet."

21C Museum Hotel St Louis

8/10 Good

"Wonderful vibrant bar and restaurant scene. Location is walkable, but we had to use the valet parking which was an additional cost of $55 per day since the hotel did not have parking."
