After a bad experience with another Hilton in St. Louis (see my reviews to find out which one), I shifted to this one for the last two nights of my stay and though I wasn't sure at first if I had made the right decision, I definitely am now.

The hotel is massivce.. not in height, but in area space. I actually got lost the first day -- but the fact that the hotel was taken over by some danceathon organization probably didn't help either. In my 3 days, 2 night stay, I've seen the hotel ballroom (which is really nice) used for a wedding, post wedding brunch, dance-a-thon and some other big gathering.

The hotel is very french in style, the music they play and the way the staff is dressed and acts. The rooms are very floral printed -- normally I'm not a fan of that pattern, but with the rest of the french flair the hotel embraces, it fits right in.

Though the hotel has all the ammneties of most HIltons I stay in, its still carries a more "elegant" label than it does "modern". To go along with that because of its placement in the city, its also very quiet -- almost eerie at times because you don't know if anyone else is even living in any of the rooms near you.

Upside: free parking and massive parking lot. Room service was excellent, prompt and the food was actually good in comparison to my other Hilton stay food/room service.

I think next time I am in St Louis, I will probably stick to staying here -- its not too far from the airport either.

My husband and I stayed at the Hilton Frontenac for 3 nights while attending a conference. This is a very nice hotel with spacious rooms. There seems to be mutiple buildings to this hotel, we stayed in the main building. The staf were very helpful and our housekeeper was very nice and thoughtful. The concierge lounge was also very nice and inviting. There was free wlrelss internet in the lounge. The one complaint I will make is about the couple of hairs I found in the shower...not good. We will stay again if in this area.

I stayed for two nights on business. I had 3 complaints. First, the hotel seems to pipe through its air system a strong airfreshner. Second, and most disgusting, I had a stain on one of the bed skirts that clearly looked like it was male fluid. Third, in order to get in and out, I had to walk through the literature/meeting space of a religious organization.

On the brighter side, the conference space was very nice and the food in the hotel was excellent! Oh and the rooms were nice and quiet. So much so, that when I finally heard a faint noise in the hall after 2 days, I was surprised by it.

My wife and I stayed here two nights for a wedding and everything was fine. It can be a little confusing to get around, and the hotel is older but fine. Staff was very helpful and the location is great. I would stay here again.
