Top John M Olin Nature Preserve Hotel Reviews

Pear Tree Inn St. Louis Airport

10/10 Excellent

"We had a pleasant stay here. Lots to do nearby. Would recommend."

Hyatt Regency St. Louis at The Arch

8/10 Good

"Exceptional location and you can literally walk outside to the archway. Super clean, nice staff, clean rooms. I was there for work where I could have gone to others for cheaper but not likely the view and location. Only downside was the garage system was not working all weekend, so self parking was a bit problematic, but I know that stuff happens. I would love to stay there if I come back in town."

Hyatt Select St. Louis Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The night time attendant was phenomenal! Super kind and helpful. The rollaway bed was stained so she found a new one then put a mattress cover over it. Super helpful for us. I would definitely stay again."

Motel 6 Hazelwood, MO

8/10 Good

"It was a comfortable stay"

Ameristar Casino Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Easy parking, friendly staff, and large rooms were the highlights of Ameristar. I picked this hotel for my last night in St. Louis before a depressingly early flight. At 10 minutes to the airport, it was a very easy morning. The casino was an added bonus, giving me a way to unwind before my time home. Unfortunately, it is extremely smoky from the moment you get off the elevator from the parking garage. Even on the non-smoking floor of the casino, there is no refuge from the cigarette smell. That was to be expected though, and my non-smoking room was clean and unexpectedly large with a sunken living room and view of a body of water that I'm too lazy to look up."

Larkspur Landing Extended Stay Suites St. Louis Riverport - Airport West

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and quiet place to walk from a concert at the theater. No drinking and driving"

Wingate by Wyndham St. Louis Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Airport shuttle, clean, nice rooms"

Marriott St. Louis Airport

8/10 Good

"There was a huge conference in town so rooms were a premium. We had scheduled our plans a bit late so we didn’t get the exact rooms we booked. But the staff did a great job in getting us as close as possible and made nice concessions for the inconveinence."

Renaissance St. Louis Airport Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I have no complaints about this hotel. The staff was pleasant and helpful. It was wonderfully clean throughout. The Renaissance Hotel has my highest recommendation as a wonderful place to stay."
