The Spotlight on Hilton Pennywell St. Louis at the Arch

Historic Charm Meets Downtown Vibes in St. Louis

Modern sophistication meets vintage flair at the Hilton Pennywell St. Louis at the Arch, a beautifully restored 19th-century bank turned boutique-style hotel. Located right in the heart of downtown St. Louis, it's only a short walk from major concert venues, the iconic Gateway Arch, and vibrant nightlife. With stylish rooms, thoughtful amenities, and a standout on-site restaurant, it's a smart pick for music lovers looking to stay central.

Why Concert-goers love it

Just a half-mile from the Gateway Arch and America's Center, and within walking distance of multiple performance halls and stadiums, this hotel is a major win for concert-goers. You can stroll to your show and be back in your room without needing a rideshare. Rooms are well-insulated for a quiet night's sleep after the encore, and late-night dining options help refuel after a night of music. Check-in starts at 4:00 PM and check-out isn't until 11:00 AM — giving you a relaxed morning after the show.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish downtown base with a great bar
  • Solo travelers in town for a bucket-list act
  • Couples planning a romantic music-filled weekend
  • Fans needing a quieter recovery space after the concert rush
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want upscale comfort

Food and Drink Options

The on-site Pennydrop Bar & Kitchen is a local favorite for both cocktails and upscale comfort food — ideal for a pre-show bite or a post-concert nightcap. While there's no 24/7 room service, the hotel’s central location means you're never far from late-night eateries. Breakfast is available, perfect for those easing into the morning after a late night.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn't host live music, you're within walking distance of some of downtown St. Louis's best bars, lounges, and music venues. The on-site bar is a great place to start your night with a craft cocktail and some local flavor in a more relaxed setting.

What People Say

Guests rave about the beautifully preserved historic architecture, the friendly and helpful staff, and the prime downtown location. Many love the upscale vibe that still feels welcoming and unpretentious. The fitness center gets high marks too, if you're looking to squeeze in a workout before heading to a show.

Areas for Improvement

The hotel doesn’t offer valet parking, and some guests mention that parking nearby can be a bit pricey or limited during busy nights. Also, while most rooms are quiet, street-facing rooms might pick up a bit of city buzz — request a higher floor if you're a light sleeper.

The Bottom Line

If you're looking for a stylish, central, and concert-friendly hotel in downtown St. Louis, Hilton Pennywell delivers with historic charm, modern comfort, and unbeatable location.

Wonderful.

Liked: Breakfast buffet was great, along with the service. We had two vehicles in tge valet parking overnight. We had no issues retrieving the vehicles in a timely manner.
Disliked: There was no ice in the ice machine. We don't know if it was broken, or if all the ice was used.

Pessima

Liked: Location
Disliked: Worst experience possible.The hotel ran out of water, and the air conditioning was broken for an entire night. Every night I requested room service, the food was late—it took over an hour for each meal to arrive. I was also wrongly charged for a no-show, even though I had informed the hotel in advance, through Booking.com, that I would be delayed due to a flight issue. Overall, this was the worst experience I’ve ever had at a hotel.

If minor inconvenience were fixed...

Liked: I loved the location, easy walk to gateway arch and Busch stadium
Disliked: Thermostat didn’t work so work up super warm, room did not get below 74 degrees and I couldn’t adjust it. Fan would blow but room stayed the same temperature. Door was super sticky and would not close all of the way unless you completely slam it shut

Pleasant

Liked: The lobby area was really nice, and the location is great!
Disliked: Our shower head gushed water and sprayed everywhere. The tub didn’t drain quick enough and you ended up standing in a bath by the end of the shower.
