Moonrise Hotel
Outerspace theming and a rooftop bar in the Delmar Loop
St. Louis
About this stay
The Delmar Loop neighborhood gives this hotel its energy, an eclectic strip of restaurants and music venues that the outerspace-themed rooms and rooftop bar lean into rather than compete against. Eclipse Restaurant handles dinner on site for guests who'd rather not walk the Loop after dark, though the neighborhood itself rewards an evening stroll. The Saint Louis Zoo is an eight-minute taxi ride, an easy family add-on despite the hotel's more adults-oriented theming. Free parking and free Wi-Fi are both included, unusual together at a boutique property. Pet-friendly rooms round out the practical side. The airport is about twenty minutes by taxi or twenty-three by public transport, one of the faster transit links among these properties (free parking included, twenty-three-minute public transport link to the airport).

Our take
Couples and groups wanting a themed, only-in-St.-Louis stay in a genuinely walkable nightlife district should book here over a generic downtown tower. The Saint Louis Zoo trip works for a family despite the adults-leaning bar scene, worth timing for daytime rather than evening. Free parking is a real plus given the boutique positioning.
- Walk the Delmar Loop in the evening rather than driving, it's the whole point of staying in this neighborhood.
- Book the eight-minute taxi to the Saint Louis Zoo for late morning, it's less crowded than midday on weekends.
- Use the free parking here instead of paying downtown rates if you're planning day trips out of the city.

Why guests love itChildren usually love the outer-space theme of this boutique hotel on the Delmar Loop, and the street outside is lined with shops and restaurants for an easy dinner. Parking is free, a real plus in St. Louis, and pets are welcome. The Saint Louis Zoo, in Forest Park, is about eight minutes away by taxi, making it a good base for a family day there. The rooftop bar is best enjoyed by the adults.
