Nice hotel. I live in St. Louis. The arch is honestly really boring, but I guess that's because I see it a lot.

Answer 2

Well I'mm from Kansas City, andI'mm going to STL in Sept. but i found out today that Lil Wayne is going to be in STL on the 30th.

Answer 3

Do you like blues music? Big Muddy Blues festival on Laclede's Landing (just north of the Arch, and you'll be right across from the Arch) is free (http://bigmuddyblues.com/).

Take MetroLink out to Forest Park on the west end of the city, where there's art museum, zoo, Boathouse restaurant and boat rides, science center close by (http://www.forestparkforever.org/HTML/).

Japanese festival is at the botanical garden that weekend (www.mobot.org).

Want a little history, a little walking? How 'bout Cahokia Mounds across the river in Illinois (www.cahokiamounds.com).

Try to get in the newer section of the Millennium, the north section. If you look at traveler's reviews of the hotel (http://www.expedia.com/pub/agent.dll?qsc... they vary widely, and some of them indicate that it's the south tower that sucks.

Have a fun weekend!

Answer 5

There are two tourist centers located by the two main routes into St. Louis.  Expect an arm load of flyers and such if you stop there.  Pull up their phone number in Google or Web search and call for directions.

Your hotel will have a list of a few going-on's .  If you can catch a cab driver standing around, they also will tell you basic info.  But, first thing to say to the cab driver is, "Excuse me, we may or may not need a cab right  this minute, but would you please give us some free info?"  

Sorry to say "some" drivers will lie to you if you are not using their cab.
