The Cheshire is in a class by itself. The halls and sitting areas are so full of history and there’s an ambiance that we just love. Our suite, Treasure Island, was amazing! Large, clean, luxurious and cozy with a beautiful fireplace and large jacuzzi. We had a delicious dinner at the Basso, relaxed in the very British, cozy Fox & Hound, enjoyed a coffee at the Tudor styled Starbucks and as always, enjoyed breakfast beside the fireplace. We loved our stay!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Staff was friendly and parking free and easy. The location near Forest Park is great if a trip to the St. Louis Museum of Art is in your plans. The building and decor is old and eclectic. Room was quiet and the bed comfortable, but felt a bit run down and could have been cleaned better. The bar/restaurant "Basso" is steps away for great food, a lively bar and moderate prices. The provided lobby breakfast/coffee was simple but fine.

Loved the uniqueness of Cheshire inn and the themed rooms by authors. Had a great breakfast! Also the Fox and Hound Tavern inside and the Basso just a few steps away out the door. The one thing I did miss was having a mini fridge and microwave.

This is a unique hotel. The bed was comfortable and the staff was friendly. However, the hotel is filthy. There are scuff marks on the elevator doors and on the molding throughout the hotel. My bathroom and linens were clean, but the rest of my room needed a deep clean. Also, the breakfast was okay. The danishes were very stale, though.
