Hotels near St. Michael's Orthodox Church, St. Louis

Let's start with the good. The rooms are amazingly comfortable. Mind you, it helps that I reserved a Stadium View king and was upgrade to an Executive Studio Suite. Extremely comfortable, very clean, and wonderfully furnished. It is exactly what I would expect from this level of hotel. It is also perfectly located if you're attending a Cardinals game at Busch Stadium. You walk out the front door, walk across Clark Ave which is shut down for games, and you are at the stadium. It is the reason I choose this hotel as I was attending a game. It is also basically in Ballpark Village. And now, the frustrating parts. Parking is horrible. First off, there is nothing on the website that I can find that tells you where to self-park or off what street to enter. I had the misfortune of trying to figure it out in between a double-header, where streets are blocked off and crazy people are running amuck in cars as well as running across the streets. I finally called the hotel and a kind gentleman talked me down to where I needed to be. By the way, the second level elevator, the only elevator that takes you near (not to) the hotel, the down button to call the elevator doesn't function. You have to hit the up button to have the elevator to arrive, then go up so you can do down to ground level. The elevator dumps you outside and you then walk past valet parking to get to the front door. Check in starts at 4:00pm and I arrive at 4:10pm. There is only one person at the desk, and she is dealing with a difficult customer. She was actually providing great customer service, but it was taking a lot of time and the line behind me was building. During this time, multiple employees walked by and behind the desk but offered no help or even made eye contact. Finally, after about 15 minutes, someone showed up to help. One thing to note, to use the elevator to go to your floor (mine was the 8th floor) you have to scan your room key card for it to allow you to push the floor button. That was not mentioned to me when I checked in and I could not figure out why I could not get to the 8th floor until a nice couple told me. Funny thing is, about 20 minutes later I got to tell another couple the same thing as no one told them either. You would think that should be automatic when checking someone in. Finally, the next morning I wanted to leave early, by 7 at the latest, so decided to do room service. They claim 24-hour room service available. However, you cannot order breakfast to be delivered to your room until 7 at the earliest. Prior to that, you can only order ”late Night Snacks”, which consists of things like Doritos. I just gave up, checked out, and had breakfast elsewhere on the road. There were other things as well. Overall, not a horrible experience. Just too many frustrating points which should not be the case for the cost of a night stays

This is the worst hotel experience I have ever had. There is no available breakfast as advertised. There is no restaurant as advertised; there is a printed menu in the bar but it was not serving. One of the reasons I was staying was for the breakfast as part of my IHG rewards perks. I was promised points for the lack of breakfast but was not given any. Looking at past reviews, breakfast has been gone for a long time despite the advertisement of it. Additionally, the parking garage instruction email gave the incorrect parking garage, which cost me money to exit to park in the correct one. The access to the correct parking garage was confusing. An address is not even given, just turning instructions, and access is via a bank lobby. There was no upgrade or perk given to Diamond members. In fact, this was so blatantly disregarded that I have no idea why anyone would spend big with loyalty at IHG. I was not allowed late check out, even by 30 minutes. I’ve never had such lack of accommodation when I told them I might run late. In fact, the evening staff told me “check out at 12 would be fine, but confirm with the morning staff” and the morning staff didn’t allow a minute past 11. The front desk had a single person working it which caused long lines at the desk. I was not offered any solution or refund for their errant instructions on the parking garage. The phone in the room did not work. Overall, what should’ve been a relaxing stay ended up with chaos. I should’ve read more reviews before booking. I still never got any of the points promised for the lack of breakfast but I am done dealing with this nightmare hotel.

My teen son and I stayed two nights. It was better than we had hoped. The rooms are enormous. We had a wet bar with refrigerator, a couch and two queen beds, plus a beautiful, large bathroom. This was a standard room. Absolutely worth the bargain price! They gave us a 15th floor room with a rooftop view of surrounding buildings. Definitely request a high floor room, the lower floor rooms face directly into the windows of nearby buildings. The only bummer was the parking situation. The parking is not on site. It was worth it to us to pay for the valet service because it is not a great neighborhood, but if you try to save money in that department you will be schlepping your luggage across a busy street. The staff was friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed this hotel. P.S. Don't expect to eat here; their menu is severely limited due to the pandemic.

Two of the main things I looked for when booking was a pool and free parking. The pool was indoors which was fine. Was surprised to see how small it was and was a big let down that it was so freezing we couldn’t enjoy it at all. So it was a let down that one of the main reasons I booked here we didn’t get to use the pool. This place does have newer furniture in its rooms but the floor throughout and the furniture it the lobby is just stained up and dingy. The signs on 1st floor for ice machine/vending are wrong. Asked a rude house keeper that was upset bc I guess I interrupted her cleaning. She had told me it was around the corner…. The out of order machine was on the other side of the building. I finally found me an ice machine on next floor. The people at the front desk are very nice and courteous. Really nice. But wish they had explained more on their parking so that I didn’t end up with a ticket each day I was there. So they have no free parking lots at the moment. You either have to park in their drop off zone are a section of street parking on the side. The other lots available you have to pay per day. Due to this I found a spot on the side (side street parking as they suggested) and I didn’t move my car. I kept it there the entire time and walked everywhere I needed to go. Well when I went to leave I had parking tickets racked up for several days. I went in and asked them if that was there parking as told previously and they said yes. I told them about the tickets and they said it was managed by the city and u have to back in or get a ticket. That would be nice to know when you offer that as a parking suggestion. I go out to lot to see if there was a sign. There was a sign many spots down that in the direction I was coming from wouldn’t have seen. I also looked all almost every vehicle was parked wrong way so obviously they weren’t told or didn’t see sign either. I started warning those I could. $30 a day ticket city it making a lot of money of that small parking section from out of towners etc that don’t know ST Louis parking laws …. The hotel won’t warn u of this and they know. Besides these couple things everything else was good.

I needed to stay near WashU and was without a car - without much research I found this hotel which appears to be the only one near the university and also near restaurants. (I may be wrong). I spent two nights. First, the hotel has a quirky moon theme. Fine. It mainly consists of a couple of glass display cases near the lobby with a moon related collection of tchatchkes. Beyond that there is a mild ”mid century” feel and a big moon on top of the hotel located at the rooftop bar. Pros: location at Delmar loop and near university Cons: This is an old hotel with very superficial ”improvements”. Feels like a 1980 hotel covered up. Lots of ”dings” around from being bumped and used. The chair and other furniture in the room had stains and were worn. The hallway smelled. The price was steep for the quality of the place Went to the rooftop bar and was met by surly bouncer. Weird. The front desk staff were okay but seemed unprofessional/too relaxed I had 3 suitcases and no one offered to help me to the elevator etc The BED was completely terrible. Had to be very old. Sunken in the middle, totally soft. had to be low quality such as few springs as the whole thing bounced all over when touched. I hardly slept for two nights. If not for this awful bed I likely would not have bothered writing a review as the rest was all forgettable. I'll be going back to St Louis and I'll figure out something else next time.

Wanted a weekend staycation and it was perfect. Great Friendly staff, shower was one of my favorite things about it, it was in a prime location. The only thing that Dayton rate five stars was the breakfast, with the pandemic we understand the Buffay not being available, but the sack breakfast they provided was a banana and a banana muffin, no drinks, cereal, nothing else. Other than that we really enjoyed ourselves.

The location is excellent, restaurants and shopping malls are within easy reach. The hotel has just opened for two months. It has complete facilities, large room space, and very clean and hygienic. Although it is shown that breakfast is not included when booking, the hotel includes breakfast for the guests who check in. Although Breakfast is simple, but better than going out early in the morning to find something to eat.

Location was great, room was surprisingly smaller than expected after staying at other Le Meridien locations around the world, but still comfortable. Service was wonderful. Food and beverage specifically were great throughout the morning and night.

When we first arrived the counter attendant did not have our reservations. I had to call Trip to get it straightened up. It was finally done but it took an extra 30 minutes.

Bed was hard & there was no free wifi, only for hotel members. Otherwise, it was beautiful & clean.
