"I had a unique opportunity to compare the Clayton Plaza to another hotel. My employer put me up at Fancy hotel for a couple nights. I was looking for an economical option to extend my stay a few days and I found the Clayton Plaza. It’s a great location in the heart of downtown Clayton that worked very well for my needs The room rate was about half the cost of Fancy hotel and included a very extensive delicious breakfast buffet, (served on paper plates), free parking and the use of facilities I didn’t need. At Fancy hotel everything - including bottled water in the room - was extra. The room, while very simple, was spacious and clean and had everything I needed, including a small refrigerator and a microwave. When I stayed at Fancy hotel, I could never get hot water in the shower whereas at the Clayton Plaza the shower was excellent and reliable. Fancy hotel had no counter space for my toiletries while Clayton Plaza had ample. The towels were not as plush, but they were clean and available. I didn’t have maid service so I can’t comment on that. The air conditioner worked very well and it was very hot day, better than at Fancy hotel. The dining room staff and other staff were very pleasant and helpful. At Fancy hotel, the reception clerk was very well trained and gracious while Clayton Plaza reception could use a little training. Windows could be cleaner, signage could be more polished, but for an economical, desirable location Clayton Plaza would be hard to beat. "
"From check in, bar and housekeeping, every staff we interacted with was solicitous, friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this hotel especially for anyone attending entertainment in the area. "
"We absolutely loved the Cheshire! It's so beautiful that we were tempted to never leave! My kids loved the breakfasts and the sparkling clean pool. We recommend the Cheshire to everyone and we will definitely be back! "
"This property was in a great location. It’s walking distance to the Zoo and Turtle Park (along with another playground). While it was too hot for us to explore the larger park in which the Zoo was located, that proximity was a big factor in our choice of location. We had once prior visited St Louis but stayed downtown. We did not enjoy the downtown area with our three kids ages 10 and younger at the time. Because of the heat, we chose to drive to our destinations in and around the city. The Cardinals game at Busch Stadium, City Museum and the Gateway Arch were all just minutes away from the house. Definitely have a meal from Pizzeria Di Gloria. The pizza was fabulous!! Be forewarned, finding parking on a Saturday evening proved challenging. We brought our dog and felt very comfortable walking her through the neighborhood.The house was clean and tidy when we arrived. I would recommend looking at the included amenities closely if you plan to do any cooking. The kitchen supplies were not as extensive as I would’ve hoped. Spices, a toaster, coffee pot (other than the Keurig) and a spare roll of paper towel would’ve been appreciated.The linens were minimal so pack an extra blanket and an extra towel or two. The seating inside the home was limited so if you are filling each bed to capacity, either be prepared to sit on the floor or to move chairs around the house to accommodate down time.The hosts were responsive and respectful. It was a pleasure to stay in this house. "
