Top Turtle Playground Hotel Reviews

Angad Arts Hotel St. Louis, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"This was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at... from the beautiful rooms... to the amazing rooftop bar... to the luxurious CommonWealth. Priceless establishment!"

Drury Inn & Suites St. Louis Forest Park

10/10 Excellent

"Best hotel for the money that I have ever stayed at. And that is saying something. The breakfast is an outstanding selection of cooked food. The beds are super comfy for an old guy with a bad back. But what really stood out was the free dinner. They set out another selection of simple food, including very good pulled pork. We were not hungry enough to go out, so it was perfect. I will keep looking for Drury hotels in future traveling for sure!"

Moonrise Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good stay."

The West End

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room and really good customer service"

The Cheshire

10/10 Excellent

"Just stayed one night with my husband but we want to come back. Good location, loved the British theme going, breakfast was excellent, fun exploring all the floors in the hotel as it has 4 floors. Did not visit the restaurants but I bet they were good and they gave us a coupon to user but we did not as we checked in late. Our room was quiet on the first floor. Good parking available. Staff were friendly and helpful during our whole stay. Loved the room author thing going on and labels on doors as it was fun to read, lots of good artwork, loved the author of your room having a book in the room like ours was Ann Sewell who wrote Black Beauty and we had a paper back copy of it in our room. If I was to ask for anything , it would be a small refrigerator as my husband travels with meds and a grab bar to step out of the tub. Would highly recommend."

DoubleTree by Hilton St. Louis Forest Park

8/10 Good

"Safe surroundings and ambiance. Access to restaurant from Lobby convenient. The bathroom was not completely clean specifically the bathtub. The rest of the room was great"
