The Spotlight on The Arch Convention Hotel

Classic Comfort Steps from the Downtown St. Louis Music Scene

Modern yet timeless, the Holiday Inn St Louis Downtown/Convention Center is a reliable choice for concert-goers looking to stay close to the action. Located right across from America’s Convention Center and just a short walk from downtown’s top live music venues, this hotel blends convenience, comfort, and affordability. Rooms are classically styled with thoughtful touches like workspaces, coffee makers, and cable TV—perfect for unwinding after a big night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is a favorite among music fans thanks to its prime downtown location. You can easily walk to several performance venues and nightlife hotspots, meaning no need to worry about rideshares or parking after the show. Plus, with a 24-hour front desk and early check-in/late check-out flexibility (subject to availability), it’s well-suited for flexible concert schedules. The area stays lively late into the evening, but the hotel itself offers a quieter retreat for post-show recovery.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends enjoying a weekend music festival
  • Solo travelers checking off a bucket-list concert
  • Couples making it a music-filled date night
  • Fans looking for a calm and comfortable place to crash
  • Budget-conscious travelers wanting value without sacrificing location

Food and Drink Options

The on-site St. Louis Sports Hall of Fame Sports Bar & Grill serves up hearty American fare for breakfast and dinner—perfect for fueling up before a show or winding down after. While there’s no 24/7 room service, the central location puts you within walking distance of late-night eateries and local bars. The in-room coffee and tea-making facilities are a welcome perk after a late night.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel doesn’t host live music itself, you’re in the heart of downtown St. Louis, with bars, lounges, and clubs just blocks away. Whether you're in the mood for craft cocktails or a dive bar with jukebox vibes, it's all within reach. On quieter nights, the hotel bar offers a laid-back spot to sip a local brew.

What People Say

Guests praise the Holiday Inn for its clean and comfortable rooms, helpful staff, and unbeatable downtown location. Many reviewers note how easy it is to walk to nearby venues and restaurants, and appreciate the quiet atmosphere after a high-energy night out. The affordable pricing in such a central location is often highlighted as a major plus.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor feels a bit dated in spots, and that parking can be a little pricey or tight. Elevators can be slow during busy times, so plan accordingly if you're rushing to a show.

The Bottom Line

If you're coming to St. Louis for the music, the Holiday Inn Downtown/Convention Center puts you close to the stage and gives you a cozy place to recharge after the encore.

Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

J D, Sheboygan Falls, visiting America's Center

Needs major improvements to facility.

Liked: Service was excellent, especially the cleaning ladies.
Disliked: Shower curtain was falling from walls (maintenance had to come). Vanity sink drain was leaking onto the floor every time the water was turned on (maintenance had to come). The ironing board would not stay upright (maintenance had to come). There was an extension cord strung across the room to power the light near the chair.

Bad

Liked: Ummm I can't really say that I liked anything except for the help from one of the janitors that helped clean up glass from our car that got broke into and they had tried to steal it
Disliked: Quiet time needs to be ENFORCED. i heard doors slamming at all hours of the night which scared my 5yr old daughter several times. There was so much chlorine in the pool it burned my eyes. The water was extremely cloudy. Im sure if that water was tested the pool would be shut down. We stayed on the 4th floor got assigned to room 421.....it was filthy. dirty kleenex on bathroom counter trash and food on floor in main area we did get moved to room 425 which was better. The whole 4th floor stunk like Marijuana. We had children with us and its supposed to be a SMOKE FREE HOTEL WE WILL NOT RETURN AND DEFINITELY WONT RECOMMEND TO STAY HERE

With the location and price...

Liked: Decent location for the baseball game.
Disliked: We had kids banging on doors and running the hallways starting at 5:45 AM and I reported it. There was a worker who said he had received many complaints but he was the only one working and couldn’t do anything about it. It continued until 7:25 when we finally decided to just get up and leave. Was not pleasant at all.

I’m not happy for him...

Liked: It was close to where we wanted to be an easy access
Disliked: When I arrived, they did not have my reservation. They said, since I booked it when it was under Holiday Inn convention center and they have changed your name to the Arch convention center. They do not have my reservation nor my payment that I have made in January 23 of this year so I had to pay again 162.54 for this time which I had already paid 162.53 due back in January 23 2025.

It’s was an ok stay,...

Liked: Location was nice for getting around downtown, room layout was amazing, hotel was furnished well.
Disliked: Lacked parking, had to pay to park in an open lot half a block away. Even though the room was nice it lacked proper maintenance, AC had a hard time keeping up, toilet ran constantly and made screaming noise when flushed. There was a restaurant but was closed for the month of august, and make sure to leave at least five minutes early for anything that involves you having to use the elevators, they are very slow and don’t seem like they have ever been updated, some of the buttons do not light up and others have the numbers drawn onto them and they are very slow
