Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The breakfast was made fresh every day. It is simple but tasty, there’s fruit available at all times you can grab for free. The staff is the friendliest on earth, the room was nice and clean, the hotel itself has a lot of character, each room is named after an English author and they place a book of your author in the room. Location was good, about 15 minutes away from the Arch and all the activities we went to. This city is worth exploring and I will be coming back to stay here in the Cheshire again! Oh. And it’s great to know the place is pet friendly.

Every nooks weren't vacuumed and air vent were covered with dust. Mostly, we found rotten food in the ice bucket and fruit flies. I was so disappointed.

This was the second time we stayed here. 1st time, breakfast great. This time, 5 night stay and only day with good, fresh food was the last day, Sunday. The Fox and Hound was the bright spot in this place, though we paid for the food like a normal restaurant. Must ask for room cleaning service, and we did not. Bed mattress sink in middle, very uncomfortable.

Check in was very rushed, bordering on rude. We’ve stayed here 3 times but think we’ll look for somewhere else. Beds really need to be replaced. Chris in the Fox & Hound is the best bartender around!

Really unique hotel, but it needs a deep clean. It’s not uncomfortably dirty but it’s getting close. Cool theme, fun pub, service is just ok. Bed was comfortable but I think my sheets were 20 years old.

One of the Very Best in St. Louis!!

The ambiance and overall experience was superb. A few things could use a spruce-up. (ie. replace the rusty shower curtain rod, perhaps larger bath towels). Otherwise, accommodations were quite satisfactory. The bar tender, Chris, at Fox & Hounds Tavern was spectacular!! All staff were cordial and attentive! We love The Cheshire, and it will remain our destination for our stays in St. Louis!
