The Spotlight on Forest Park Hotel

Relaxed Comfort Close to St. Louis' Best Concerts

Modern and welcoming, Forest Park Hotel is a 3-star stay in the Clifton Heights neighborhood, just a short drive from downtown St. Louis. With free WiFi, 24-hour front desk service, and a clean, no-fuss atmosphere, it’s a great spot to recharge after a night of music and fun.

Why Concert-goers love it

Forest Park Hotel is about 6 miles from major venues like the St. Louis Gateway Arch area attractions, offering easy access without the downtown noise. Thanks to its 24-hour front desk, late-night check-ins aren’t a problem. Plus, with vending machines onsite, there's always a post-concert snack waiting.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for an affordable base
  • Solo travelers seeing their favorite artist live
  • Couples making a music-filled weekend getaway
  • Fans who prefer a quieter space to recover after the show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want good value close to the action

Food and Drink Options

While Forest Park Hotel doesn’t have a full restaurant, snack vending machines are available 24/7. Nearby, you'll find plenty of late-night diners and casual eateries within a short drive. Grab breakfast at local cafes the next morning — perfect for slow starts after late concerts.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself stays chill, it's just a quick ride to the lively downtown St. Louis bar and club scene. Whether you're looking for a cozy craft beer pub or a buzzing live music venue, options are plentiful and close by.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s quiet atmosphere, friendly staff, and easy parking. Reviewers also highlight the clean rooms and the value for money, making it a smart pick for travelers who want a stress-free stay.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel keeps things simple — don’t expect luxury amenities like a full restaurant or a fitness center. Some guests mention that it’s a bit of a drive to the downtown core, so having a car or rideshare app handy is a plus.

The Bottom Line

If you're catching a show in St. Louis and want a clean, quiet, and affordable place to crash, Forest Park Hotel hits all the right notes.

Comfortable, quiet, clean room on...

Liked: We have stayed here before. It's easy to get in and out and to where we need to go. Parking is free. Staff is friendly. It's clean, quiet, and comfortable. Good sized fridge. Older hotel. Nothing fancy. Elevators make a funny dolphin noise which we remembered from our last visit and think it's charming. In many other cities the rates here would seem steep for what you get, but St.Louis prices seem to be on the higher side from my experience, so this is fair for our budget.
Disliked: It's just older and hopefully they'll keep getting to upgrades. But, no real complaints.

Very good

Liked: Location and the unusually charming and well-spoken female desk person (rather tall, brunette, glasses) on duty the morning of my checkout. A wise management would work to keep her on staff in any position that emphasizes customer contact.

Liked: it clean giving the age of the hotel, the check in staff was VERY helpful and friendly when greeted. it was a experience
Disliked: it wasn’t bad but you could tell it was VERY outdated, we stayed in a room where there was a literal roach in a picture frame with what seems to looked like eggs.. i wished i had gotten a photo want to say it was room 609
