Looking for hotel walking distance to The Hill

Looking for a place to stay walking distance to The Hill. Staying one night. Several years ago seemed like there was a holiday Inn. Is it still there? Any other suggestions are appreciated.

If you are looking to stay within walking distance of The Hill neighborhood in St. Louis, your options are a bit limited because The Hill is primarily residential with local Italian restaurants and shops rather than a hotel hub. However, there are still some possibilities nearby.

Holiday Inn: There is no longer a Holiday Inn directly on The Hill. The closest Holiday Inn would be the Holiday Inn Express & Suites St. Louis – Forest Park, which is about a 10–15 minute drive from The Hill, not within comfortable walking distance.

Hotels closer to The Hill:

  • Drury Inn & Suites St. Louis Forest Park: Located roughly 1.5 miles from The Hill. It’s a short drive or about a 30-minute walk. Offers free breakfast and evening socials.
  • Moonrise Hotel: Situated near Forest Park, about 2 miles from The Hill. It’s a boutique-style hotel with a modern feel and convenient access to both the park and The Hill.
  • Hyatt Regency St. Louis at The Arch: This is around 3 miles away, near downtown and the Gateway Arch. A bit of a longer walk, but a short drive or Uber puts you in The Hill in 10 minutes.

Other suggestions: Since The Hill is not a hotel-centric area, many visitors choose to stay near Forest Park or downtown St. Louis for better lodging options and then drive or use rideshare services to The Hill. Parking in The Hill is generally easy, so taking an Uber or Lyft for a short trip from nearby hotels is common.

In summary, if walking distance is the top priority, options are limited to smaller motels or Airbnb-style rentals within or very near The Hill. Otherwise, staying near Forest Park or downtown gives you more hotel choices and still keeps The Hill easily accessible.
