Top World Chess Hall of Fame Hotel Reviews

Angad Arts Hotel St. Louis, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Great walking distance to The Fabulous Fox Theatre and restaurants. Parking is on site and conveniently located. The hotel has artwork throughout. Sadly the bar was stated to be open until 11pm, but closes at 10. There isn’t much within walking distance open after 10pm, after seeing a show. We had the red room, uniquely decorated, it was a nice difference from a regular hotel experience. The woman in the lobby who checked me in was so friendly and helpful! I’d return for another stay!"
