Pros:

Comfy beds, breakfast, helpful with a special request

Cons:

Delayed check in, stressed staff, lobby under maintenance, attached to huge hospital meaning additional use of key cards all over, having to pay for parking, visible dirty parts of room, shower and some unidentified sticky liquid across pictures

The staff was not helpful during our entire 3 day stay. I will never stay at this hotel again.
Pros:

The fact that the hotel connected to the hospital where I was seeing a patient. That is it.

Cons:

My son left a bag in our room and have called MANY times about it. The one time I was able to reach anyone in Housekeeping, she let me know how much she didn't want to look for our bag. Never received any type of call back. Last time I called and spoke with someone at the front desk and they said they would personally hand deliver the message to return the call, that was 2 days ago. I don't usually write reviews, but on this one, big thumbs down.

Highly recommend!
Pros:

I would 10/10 recommend the DoubleTree St. Louis, especially for anyone who needs to be near Barnes Jewish Hospital, which is right next door.

I had the pleasure of being greeted on arrival by Alex at the front desk, and he set the tone for my entire stay. I was there for two weeks while my mom was a patient at Barnes, and Alex was excellent throughout. He made sure we were looked after and taken care of — his calm, warm, funny demeanor put us instantly at ease, which meant the world since my mom was undergoing treatments and tensions were running high. When I needed to extend my stay, Alex and the entire DoubleTree team were more than accommodating for my situation.

A major bonus: the third floor is connected directly to the hospital, so you don't even have to go outside. That made it safe and incredibly convenient for me to go back and forth, which was a godsend because I was still working full-time while supporting my mom.

If you're considering the DoubleTree St. Louis in the Central West End, I cannot recommend it, plus Alex and the entire staff, enough.

Very adequate!
Pros:

There was a guy on the front desk called 'Alex', who was just a great ambassador for the brand. He was super friendly, welcoming and accommodating.

The room was spacious, comfortable, quiet. The hotel was in a great location.

Cons:

One of the other receptionists (short, glasses, bit older) was a bit unpleasant. No sunlight out of her, couldn't muster a "hello" or a "how are you". Looked angry.

It's a pain that the restrooms are locked with a card key. For god's sake, just let people use the restroom without going through security clearance - it's ridiculous.

Good but would not book again.
Pros:

The rooms were clean. Safe location.

Cons:

The room had a very noisy AC compressor that would wake me up in the middle of the night when it randomly goes off. Requested to change the room. The bed was very very soft, no support. The curtains didn’t work.

Completely Incompetent
Pros:

This place is the worst! Service is less than incompetent. They could not produce the room I was promised and tried to tell me the noisy side was an upgrade. I was told by the front desk that they are not Hilton, hmmm? So many issues and too many to enumerate here. One glaring incident - the parking garage has a sign saying “Doubletree by Hilton Parking”. When I couldn’t get my key to give access, I pushed the intercom button. The first words I hear are “I CAN’T HELP YOU!!" Seriously, this is hospitality now??

Nice Property But Uncomfortable Temp In Room
Pros:

This hotel is conveniently located near Forest Park and right beside Barnes Jewish Hospital. Our room was upgraded and it was clean and spacious but the air conditioner in that room didn't work very well at all. No matter how low I set the thermostat, the temp in the room would not go below 72 degrees and I have difficulty breathing and sleeping when the temp isn't cooler. The bed was comfortable and if the a/c had worked I would have gotten a great night's sleep. The breakfast buffet was not very impressive at all but since it was mostly covered by my food & beverage credit I can't complain. I would stay at this location again but would ensure that the a/c was working properly or ask to be reassigned to another room.

Was not happy overall. Seemed scamming.
Pros:

I liked the location and the bed. The couch in the room was nice too.

Cons:

The lady at the front desk had no idea what she was doing. I had to use the bathroom bad and after I checked in I went to use my facilities and I couldn’t enter my room because she had me on the 8th floor and my room was on the 2nd floor. There was no pool, for $250 a night there should be a pool, breakfast was supposed to be included and it was not. Staff even double charged my cousin who was on the trip with me. I feel like this hotel is only trying to take advantage of people who need a place to stay near the hospitals, which is horrible.
