This hotel is ok, but not worth the $$. Worst Hilton I have ever stayed. The mall attached is nearly empty and unsafe especially at night. Tried to go walking there and and was approached but people asking to use my phone. There are high wrought iron gates on every floor so you have to use your card to get from lobby to rooms, so people from mall can't get to rooms! Workout area in IN THE MALL and is enclosed by glass so everyone can see you . Plus, you have to go through a small dark hallway in the mall to get to it! ONE restaurant in the mall and the man couldn't speak English! Hotel staff are nice, but workers started POUNDING & scraping on the room next door at 9 am. Sounded like they were in the room, so I can't imagine if you had someone staying there. The tv channels are awful and they have very few choices. I would NOT stay there again.

The hotel has amazing visual structures and everyone was very accommodating to our every need. The restaurant, bar and check in process was impressive. I highly recommend staying here anytime you are in St. Louis.

We stayed here unaware that mardi gras was being celebrated.. Drunk people and police kept us up most of the night. We are hilton honors members and have never had such a terrible stay. At one point a police officer came to our door to see if a drunk guy w our room number written on his arm belonged to us. It was 4am. What a rotten night! We even called the front desk and their only comment was that the police were there.... Awful. The place is ancient and has some nice decor in the lobby areas but it is not safe to walk through many parts of the building that have been turned into a very cheap and seedy mall with no name-brand stores.

We booked this hotel mostly because of its proximity to the Scottrade Center. It is about 2 blocks from the entrance, which, for us, is a huge priority when concert-going.
Let's get this over with....yes, the neighborhood isn't as great as some downtown venues we have been to. But, for a weekend away from home, with a concert as our main objective, this was a GREAT HOTEL!
The staff was friendly, helpful, welcoming, competent. Our room was immaculate, and fairly large. The decor is great within the room, and absolutely breathtaking in the public areas.
Breakfast in the Union Grille was wonderful...omlets made to order, and all kinds of standard buffet items were fine. We went across the street and down a block to dinner at Lombardos Trattoria----some of the best food I have EVER had, and I am a foodie.
Stay here if you are visiting downtown St Louis for an event. It is also just minutes away from the Budweiser tour, which you need to do too.
