Magnolia Hotel St. Louis, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel
10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful historic hotel! Staff was so friendly, considerate and professional. EXTREMELY dog friendly. Loved that they were involved with local dog rescue.
Sidewalks near the hotel were a little bit dirty. Mostly due to the apartment building next door, but I would stay here again. "
"The good:
Staff was amazing
Bed was extremely comfortable
Very good design of hotel
Room was clean
The bad:
Gatorade bottle sat by level 2 elevator for 2 days spilt on floor with wet floor sign by it.
Hotel does need some updating.
Final thoughts:
The hotel was just put under new ownership and has a lot of potential, the design is great the restaurant when it reopens will be a great set up as well. Don’t want to bash it because they are trying and to clean things up do take time. I look forward to seeing it in another year or so to see how it has improved.

"The valet and front desk staff were great! Everyone was friendly and helpful, really created a welcoming environment. The overnight parking is a little pricey, but they took good care of our car and offered a speedy retrieval when needed. Parking in the area is limited, and while there is some street parking, wasn’t sure it was secure enough for an overnight. The hotel amenities were wonderful. The indoor pool and hot tub were great, along with a really nice gym. All facilities were really clean. Be sure to check out the art galleries on the second floor. The gallery space was some of the best we’ve seen at a 21c Hotel. Free bottled water with easy refill stations was a plus. Our one critique was that our room carpet and bathroom floor could’ve used a better cleaning, and the rooms are showing some wear and tear. Not horrible, but we stayed here about two years ago for the first time, and the room was extremely clean and well cared for. Hopefully, they’ll pay better attention to this because it’s a nice hotel in a cool building and it would be a shame to let it fall into disrepair. "
