Drury Inn & Suites

Pros: Customer service is amazing. The
Gentleman working at night gave my daughter a packet of historical information about the hotel and told her all about its history. Very cool. Beautiful lobby. Very clean rooms. Lovely location… Parking is great. Free hot breakfast is a definite plus… I was expecting just cereal boxes and bagels.
Cons: walls are paper thin (worse than most hotels). Our room faced (and opened up to) the restaurant where the free breakfast is so we woke up pretty early
With people banging and clattering and talking. The pool is a joke. Seriously. Backyard pools are bigger and the whole hotel can watch you swim. My kid was pretty disappointed. We picked this hotel based on the pool and the proximity to the Arch.
Nice place but I wouldnt pay $ 200 a night again.

This place was awesome! Recently stayed there with a large group for a tradeshow. This hotel is right around the corner from the convention center and walking distance from lots of fun places. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The snacks and products from the front desk were inexpensive (less than $ 6) and they had a good selection of things to choose from. This hotel also offers 2 free meals a day, a hot continental breakfast with a wide variety of choices and a hot dinner that is also varied. The rooms were very nice and the beds and pillows were really comfy. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone.

Stayed there 1÷27÷16 through 1÷28÷15. The front desk employees were superb and cordial. Could not have asked for more better staff. We also ran into a maintenance man by the pool and he was very polite and asked how our evening was and if there was anything we needed. The rooms on the 5^th and 6^th floors have an inner and outer ring setup. We were on the inner ring which made access to the pool and breakfast area very convenient (the inner ring has two entrance/​exits into the room). We called to the front desk and she transferred us to the in house restaurant, Sanfilipo’s. The service was great, the burger was great and the young woman that delivered our food was very kind. It’s amazing how rare and uncommon kindness is in current times, but at this hotel they exceeded expectations.
The rooms were very clean and the bed was comfortable. The walls seemed a bit thin but that is nothing to complain about. I recommend this hotel as well as the restaurant. Thank you to the staff!

Five stars to the on-​site hotel staff! They are simply wonderful and hard-​working. Gail and Michael were on different night shifts but equally as amazing! They made sure that our arrival and entry went smoothly. When a mix-​up happened with some of our rooms, Gail quickly worked to make things right and was so pleasant in the process. Michael helped me make sure late arriving staff felt well-​received after their long travel day. Both are the definition of HOSPITALITY and not just a well-​managed hotel. Even the man who brought the rubbish bin to my room was extremely polite!
The off-​site phone service is not so polite, however, so don’t let them turn you away or leave a bad taste in your mouth. They are definitely NOT a good reflection of the on-​site hospitality and care.

Local… Decided last minute to stay here on the way home from a long day on the river.
Service was EXCELLENT. The woman that checked us in was super nice and filled us in on all the info as far as where all the amenities are etc.
The parking garage is key card access only, and there where plenty of spaces available. Entrance into the hotel from the garage is key card (at all hours), along with the elevator up to the floors also requires your card. «After hours» access is also key card only into the front lobby, plus they have security in the lobby. I am not overly cautious about security, but thought it would be good to note all of the features for anyone worried about staying here downtown.
The room was nice and roomy, bed was comfortable. Bathroom was large, shower was small, but adequate… Maybe could benefit from a curved shower rod to make the shower seem a little roomier. The room was immaculate.
Breakfast was really decent as far as free breakfast goes. Scrambled eggs, potatoes, sausage and biscuits and gravy… Make your own waffles etc. along with your typical «continental» breakfast items. I was pleased with the eggs, selection of fruit etc since I don’t eat refined carbohydrates. Breakfast atrium is In The middle of the 5^th floor along with the indoor pool. Hotel rooms are all around the perimeter. I would think the 5^th floor rooms might have the potential to be somewhat noisy for this reason, we stayed on the 6^th floor… So I could not really say for sure. I would probably request a 6^th floor room though (6^th floor is all non-​smoking FYI).
All staff was above and beyond nice. A woman in management stopped to take our plates from out table at breakfast and asked about our stay. Another gentleman who was cleaning tables also asked us about our stay etc.
I would definitely recommend this place to anyone coming in from out of town, or any locals who just want a night out in the town or who are catching a Cards game and just don’t want to make the drive home. If I could give it 10 stars, I would.

My friends and I stayed here for two days in mid-​May. I had never stayed at a Drury Inn before. We arrived around 7:30 in the evening and the woman at the front desk was polite and efficient. We were able to park next door for free in a parking garage. I thought that was a fantastic deal to have free parking in a downtown of a major city. Hotel is next to the home of the St. Louis Rams, a block from a casino, and two blocks from the Landing which has some bars and restaurants.
Our room had two queen beds, free wifi, fridge, microwave and two doors-​including one into an atrium where the pool, whirlpool, and food area was. Breakfast was good. Both days was eggs, potatoes, sausage, biscuits/​gravy. All were on the better side for a free breakfast. During the evening they have a manager reception which seems nice but I didn’t attend. I did speak with the manager on duty both days who was very friendly. Room was very clean and a fair size. We paid 300 + tax for two nights. Hotel was a 10 minute walk to Busch Stadium. Home of the Cardinals. The area felt safe to me at all times.
I was very impressed with everything about this hotel. I highly recommend staying here. Everyone is friendly, everything was clean, and a great value. Hotel won’t /shouldn’t be compared with the Ritz but I highly recommend!

I’ve never even heard of Drury Inns, much less stayed at one, but after my first experience here, I’m wishing they would expand beyond Arizona and into California. This is not a big corporate resort-​type facility but is family-​owned and I felt like a member of the family, thanks to the staff. There was free Wi-​Fi (are you listening, all you big hotels?), a great complimentary breakfast, and free drinks/​hot foods in the evening. There’s even a popcorn machine! Everyone on the staff that we interacted with, from the front desk to the food service staff to housekeeping, was warm, friendly, and easy to talk with. I will be checking into the availability of Drury Inns for all my future road trips!

This hotel has been great from the start. Complimentary wi-​if, free services in the business center, and helpful staff everywhere. I certainly would recommend this hotel.
I stayed for an ABA conference and after talking amenities with my colleagues, found that not many of the other hotels they stayed in offered breakfast. Ours did!

We had a Thanksgiving family reunion and chose Drury Inn because it is centrally located and there are good things to do in St Louis. We stayed 3 days and could not have gone away any happier with our stay. The rooms are comfortable though not luxurious. They are clean and in good repair. The hotel is well appointed with many televisions and lounge areas, meeting rooms available. Parking is attached and included. Breakfast is good. The big surprise is the «kickback» snack which amounts to a free meal and was very welcomed by our large family. Also the staff was extremely friendly and became very familiar to us. I would go back in a minute.

A friend invited me to stay with them, they were running the Rock and Roll half marathon. The price was right for the size of the room $ 110 for a one night stay in downtown St Louis that is within walking distance of so many places to eat and play. The beds were comfy, pillows fluffy and the sheets clean and bug free. The shower head was like standing in the rain, wonderful shower head and for those that forget their shampoo, conditioner or body wash a dispenser was mounted in the shower stall. We did not get to try the complimentary breakfast because we needed to leave before it was served.

The Drury Inn Convention Center is a decenet hotel in a weird area. The hotel itself is excellent, but the area is

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights. Very pleased with the room and the delicious breakfast offered for free.
The staff as kind and went out of their way to accommodate our needs. The front desk changed our room from 2 queen beds to 1 king with no hesitation. A gentleman named Segar was very kind and helpful and demonstrated customer service as it should be. Would definitely stay there again!

Within a spitting distance from the Arch and the Illinois border, this place lives up to the Drury name. Friendly staff, comfortable beds, a computer lab and printing, a Happy Hour with light dinner, and parking garage. Plus the usual like a TV, fridge, microwave, and iron and ironing board. Plenty to do nearby. This is a great location.

The hotel was very nice but there were so many things about it that was strange. There was only one set of elevators and no stairs? Our room had a window to the hall. and when we were trying to go to sleep the light from the hall came in from around the curtain and pretty much lit up the whole room. There were a lot of good things though. They have hot foods and mixed drinks at 5:30 which was nice. I didn’t try anything because we had just eaten but it looked good. The breakfast was pretty average. It’s really convenient if you’re going to the Edward Jones Dome, which we were.

It’s rated as a 3 star hotel but definitely better than Hilton that we stayed in last night. The TV is bigger and free continental breakfast and between 5pm-​7pm hot foods and alcohol drinks. It seems cleaner and nicer bathroom. I want to stay in this hotel every time when I come to St. Louis or another Drury Inn.

I stayed here 06÷06÷14.
My 2 room suite was decent. The living room had one exterior window, a couch, chair, ottoman, desk, and a TV which sat upon a unit that housed the fridge and microwave. The bedroom also had a TV but no window. I wasn’t wowed by the décor, but everything was clean and comfy.
Many of the other rooms are inward facing. They have «balconies» with a small table and chairs overlooking the «atrium». The «atrium» is a giant room w/​the pool, fitness center, and food area. It seemed quiet during my stay, but I suspect that during weekends and holidays these rooms could be loud and lack the feeling of privacy. To avoid this I would request a room with an exterior window.
Free parking was a big plus. I hate to pay for valet only to wait for my car when I want to go explore a new city. You use your room key to open the garage door. When you first arrive, you will need to park at the front door to check in and get your key.
The location is convenient. I walked to the arch and old courthouse. Busch Stadium is also walkable. I felt safe walking around alone during the day.
Free food and drink is a big plus. Breakfast was pretty typical, but I had never seen a hotel with free dinner. Options the night I stayed were: Hot dogs, mac’n cheese, chicken strips, baked potato, salad, ruffled chips, and nachos w/​optional chili and cheese. Adults get 3 free alcoholic beverages. There were plenty of open tables there, but I chose to take my plate back to the room.
I’m pretty content with my stay. If you are debating staying here, I’d say go for it.

Stayed here when I attended the Saints/​Rams game this past weekend.
VALUE: Saturday night was a bit pricey, but when you throw in free parking, three free drinks at happy hour, free breakfast and happy hour snacks… it works out.
PARKING: Easy garage parking that is FREE. Garage is connected to the hotel so you can go from your car right into the hotel without stepping a foot outside.
HAPPY HOUR: From about 5:30 to 7:00, you get free food and three free drinks. When I was there, they were serving up some pretty good baked potatoes, Mac n cheese, hot dogs, and chili. Drink selections included some wine, beer, and mixed drinks. Not too bad!
BREAKFAST: Served up until 10:00. Bagels, fruit, muffins, scrambled eggs, tator tots, biscuits and gravy… decent and free!
WHAT ELSE IS WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE?: The Arch, The Landing (bar/​restaurant district), casinos, parks, the Mississippi, and the Edwards Dome is literally across the street. There are many other hotels nearby too and I am pretty sure that the train stop is right there too.
STAFF: Friendly and funny
ROOMS: Very clean, pretty quiet, comfortable beds. Shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner were all available in those shower wall dispenser gadgets. No shortage of towels.
FINAL VERDICT: I would probably return but would also be open to trying other hotels in the vicinity (for no particular reason).

FREE PARKING
FREE BREAKFAST
FREE DRINKS (3 alcholic/​non-​alcholic drinks!!!)
FREE «KICKBACK» (snacks before dinner) but this was more like an actual dinner! While we were there, they had pasta with meatballs, nachos, hotdogs, etc!
Plus, our room had 2 doors. One door lead right out to the dining area and pool area! Super awesome, super convenient. The only thing that sucked about our stay was the parking garage was a bit scary to go in and out of… the door closes automatically super fast! I was afraid it would crush us each time we go in and out. Also… the satellite tv sucked. The Giants & Cardinal game kept going in and out! Other than that, everything else made up for it. The hotel is close to the freeway exit and right in the middle of downtown. Arch is not too far away. I would def come back to stay here if I’m ever in the area.

The Drury family of hotels I feel is overlooked by a lot of folks. I am hoping they do some more expansion to reach other cities. Because I recently (due to a long road trip) had the pleasure of staying at a Drury Inn on more than one occasion. And we had great experiences. I had been to a few Drury Inns in my day; usually because a relative was visiting, & we went to their hotel. I know I have stayed in a few Drury Inns as well. But this year, apparently was my year to truly check them out.
The hotels are not «fancy»; at least the ones I have been to thus far. But I definitely can say that the Drury Inn in Saint Louis (this is only ONE of the lcoations) is definitely a good value.
Some PROS:
* free parking
* free drink tickets + snacks for an evening happy hour
* free popcorn & fountain soda available
* free breakfast
* in walking distance to stuff downtown — AND very close to the downtown location of my fave STL Pizza joint– Pi Pizzeria
There IS a pool. However, I never did get to use it because it was monopolized by children the entire time we were there. But that happens at a lot of places (especially when we stay at the more affordable hotels). I
* The STAFF was super nice
* Clean, large room (at least the one we were in)
* close to public transportation (as well as the Amtrak station)
I would definitely go back & stay at this same hotel. It pretty much met all of the criteria I have for the price.

Warning: this review contains a RAPTURE reference related to a recent divine action non accompli. If you’re just plain tired of such references to a word that doesn’t appear in the Bible, then read no further. But if you know there’s something wrong with the world, and that «something wrong» makes you crave justice, read on.
We stayed here on a Saturday, and enjoyed almost everything. It’s easy to pull up to the curb, and check in was a breeze. Then we drove fifty feet further, turned right, and drove into the garage. Guests park mainly on the fourth level, and use the elevator just inside the secured door. Every exterior door and elevator requires a room key after a certain hour.
Once inside, we found our room was standard-​sized, not bad, but noticed things like a carpet stain by the desk, some red wax-​like spatter on a wall near the floor lamp, and dried coffee on the ironing board leg. We were on the sixth floor, with access to the exterior hallway and the interior balcony that rings the pool, fitness, laundry, and eating areas. This area forms an atrium, with plenty of natural light from above. In the eating area, there were fountain drinks and popcorn, and morning breakfast and evening happy hour are found here. We partook only of the popcorn and soda, having meal reservations at a couple restaurants.
In retrospect, perhaps the punch card each guest receives for three drinks should have been a sign of trouble. One free drink — nice. Two — generous. But unless you’re injured, disabled, or a parent of rug rats, who needs THREE drinks, when in an urban setting surrounded by great bars and restaurants? I’ll tell you who: wannabe Frat Boys, who like to gather in the hallways … and spar w/​one another … and chase one another at a clomping gallop … at 2:00 AM … at 3:00 AM … as late as 4:00 AM. Long ago, during the era of «Animal House,» I lived in a large dorm, and don’t believe anyone was quite that loudly wasted in the hallway by 4:00 AM. When there was partying, we got it out of the way earlier — we had plenty of things to do the next day, like watch a real football team.
You’re thinking that I could have called the front desk, and I suppose you’ve got a point. But, look, I monitor college students all summer, and this was supposed to be a break. If I hear someone hurt or dying, I’ll do something. Otherwise, I’m just putting in the ear plugs to muffle the commotion a bit.
Drury, perhaps you’re not technically responsible for every action of your guests. Each day your population is transformed by departures and arrivals. When there’s not a convention, and the Rams/​Cards/​Blues aren’t in town, maybe you really need youngish, young adults to support your revenue stream. Perhaps they were especially excited, celebrating the Rapture’s delay. But whether or not Jesus is coming again, these jackasses may be making an unexpected trip to meet him soon. Next time, if there is a next time, I hope that the light at the end of the tunnel is an officer’s 20-​inch maglite, and that the wicked are tossed out an alley door.
