St. Louis's most iconic landmark the Arch is located in Downtown, the grounds are located about a half mile from the hotel. There is a free museum that has the history of St. Louis and the Arch. You can also pay to take a tram ride to the top!

We definitely recommend heading over to Forest Park. Inside the park there is a free zoo, a free art museum, and a free history museum inside the park. We recommend parking near "Art Hill" pictured above, which is where Taylor and Calvin got engaged!

Central West End

Calvin and Taylor both lived in the Central West End for about 3 years and absolutely recommend visiting for lunch or dinner! It's located about 15 minutes from downtown and sits right next to Forest Park. Restaurant favorites in this area include: Kingside Diner, Yellowbelly, Edera. Bar favorites are Pagan Wine Bar and Vino Gallery (where we first met!).
