Overall, our experience was very disappointing. The positives: the hotel was quiet, some staff were very kind, lots of room for little kids to run around. Unfortunately there were way more negatives. There was nothing luxurious about this place. The room was borderline gross. The couch was ripped, the faucet on the bathtub was broken, and everything needed cleaning. We came for 2 nights for the Polar Express. We asked at least 5 different staff members how do we get our polar express tickets that were bundled with our room package, and we got 5 different answers. We spent the entire day stressed about if we were even going to have tickets. The main reason we wanted to stay at the hotel for our polar express experience was for the convenience and the supposed “luxury” and the grand hall light show. There was no light show either night we were there due to private events. The calendar on the website is supposed to tell you if there were private events or not so you know when the light show will or won’t be, and the calendar said no private events on the 2 nights we were there. So the calendar does not get updated!! Our kids were pumped about this, and we didn’t get to see it. Overall, this hotel did not deliver on the experience that they advertise. It’s not luxurious, poor customer service, lots of confusion and disappointments. (The Polar express it self is the only thing that saved our trip. It was 10/10!)

We had the BEST experience at Union Station Hotel in St. Louis! From the moment we checked in, the staff went above and beyond to make our stay perfect for our family. We originally booked a suite, but once we realized the layout wouldn’t work well with two kids in pack ’n plays, Melody stepped right in and completely took care of us. She helped us find another suite with a better layout, and it made all the difference. (FYI I think you can request pack ’n plays for your stay)
There is so much to do right behind the hotel: the St. Louis Aquarium, the Ferris wheel, the carousel, light shows inside the hotel, great restaurants and of course our favorite, The Polar Express. Huge shoutout to Melody again for helping us get incredible tickets for that experience. She truly made our trip magical.
We won’t stay anywhere else when we visit St. Louis again. This will definitely become our yearly tradition to kick off the Christmas season!

I Posted 5 stars for Location, it was good. 👍 I had 2 stars for service because at the restaurant, it took a while to get food. I had 2 stars for Rooms, this was becuase the room I was staying in was unmade, hairy, and stained, the bathroom was nothing but hair, and the only thing clean was the couch, which was tiny. The TV remote was hidden, there were no washing machines. It had Mortal Kombet tho, which was awesome. 👌

This is one of the most unique hotels I have ever stayed at. It’s been built within St. Louis’ old train station and they have restored it beautifully. In addition, because the event space is completely separated from the sleeping spaces, it was extremely quiet, even during early evening. It adjoins a very cool entertainment and dining space with a music/lights/fire show on the hour, a Ferris wheel, etc. it is steps away from the Union Station metro stop. It’s perfectly placed for Blues hockey games, and about 0.8 miles from Busch Stadium and Gateway Arch National Park. I highly recommend you stay here if you are visiting St. Louis!
