We loved our stay at the Cheshire. The author themed rooms were a hit with this bookish couple. Great location with easy access to the highway, Forest Park, and more. And the Fox and the Hound is a great little cozy space!

It was a unique place, nice to have a pub close. Staff was friendly and room was clean. The breakfast had some highs and lows, would have liked to see a little bit more variety for gluten free patrons. Basso next door has great happy hour food and drinks. There is a Starbucks on property also. We were able to Uber everywhere we wanted to go with no issues.

Fun and quirky hotel, convenient location. Room itself felt dirty and desperately in need of a deep clean and some TLC. Hair on bathroom floor, surfaces felt grimy, towels were all damp like the laundry had run out of time, not enough towels for number of guests, a/c unit had a thick layer of dust and grime and excessively loud, bathroom exhaust didn’t work. Would have asked for another room but we felt like they all would have been like it as the hallways had the same feeling.

This was fine for the price, but a little disappointing. We stayed two nights and they never cleaned our rooms or brought new towels. The elevators were very slow and old. The tavern and restaurant on premises were great.

The Cheshire is our home away from home in St Louis. We’ve stayed here at least seven times in the last thirteen years and have never been disappointed. The location is so central with great highway access that it’s hard to be more than twenty minutes from most places to visit.

Very charming property. We loved learning about a new author and the nice breakfast. Free street parking on the street is plentiful so I wouldn't pay for hotel parking. On-site restaurant was very loud and didn't have kid's menu but we made do.

Charming and quaint alternative to a Holiday Inn. It was renovated 10-15 years ago but not much care since then. The pool was allegedly open still (mid September) but when we looked out to go use it, there was debris in it and it wasn’t very inviting. The price was affordable and it was pet friendly, I only wish we could have experienced it during its heyday years ago when it was properly maintained and cleaned.

Lovely place to stay. The location was great and allowed us to walk in Forrest Park every morning of our stay. Beds were comfortable and the breakfast was good. One criticism- I wish they would update the lightbulbs in the hallways to warm white LED. The sickly color the fluorescent bulbs give off make everything an ill/greenish tint to it, giving more of a horror movie vibe. It could be so much more theme appropriate warm glow and make the hallway inviting.

Suck a cute place. We did not eat on site, but their restaurants looked fabulous. We chose to eat in the Italian area near by which was fantastic. The charm of this place is lovely! We will definitely be back to stay.

We just spent one night here. It’s a great location. Close to Forest Park and the Hill. Hotel is very different and beautiful but a little run down but not terribly. I liked the European feel to it. Room was large. Breakfast was nice with a good selection. Bar was cozy and nice.
