Courtyard by Marriott St Louis Downtown West
A coffee shop and gym on downtown's western edge
St. Louis
About this stay
This Courtyard sits on downtown's western edge, a nine-minute taxi from the Gateway Arch rather than a walking distance, which trades riverfront proximity for a quieter block and easier parking access. The on-site coffee shop covers an early start before a full sightseeing day, and the restaurant and bar handle dinner without another reservation. Free Wi-Fi runs throughout, while parking is a separate fee typical of downtown. Syberg's On Market is a five-minute walk for a casual dinner beyond the hotel. Pet-friendly rooms and a business center round out the amenities for a mixed work-and-family trip. The airport sits about twenty-three minutes by taxi or forty-three by public transport (free Wi-Fi throughout, nine minutes to the Gateway Arch by taxi).

Our take
The Courtyard St Louis Downtown West sits on the western edge of downtown, about nine minutes by taxi from the Gateway Arch, so it trades a riverfront address for a calmer block. Its guest score of 8.2 from nearly a thousand reviews reflects a dependable modern hotel with a coffee shop, a restaurant and bar, a business center and pet-friendly rooms. I would book it for a work trip or a drive-in stay with a dog.
- Grab coffee at the on-site shop before an early museum or Arch visit, it beats hunting for one downtown at 7am.
- Budget the nine-minute taxi to the Gateway Arch into your morning rather than planning to walk it.
- Walk the five minutes to Syberg's On Market for dinner rather than driving, parking there is limited.

Why guests love itDistance is the main question here: the Gateway Arch and the riverfront are a short taxi ride away rather than a walk, so plan transport for each outing. The on-site coffee shop and restaurant simplify early starts and tired evenings, and pet-friendly rooms help if the family dog travels too. Parking is charged separately. Families who want to walk to the Arch or Union Station's aquarium may prefer a more central downtown hotel.
