We have been staying at The Ritz-Carlton, St. Louis (100 Carondelet Plaza) for many years whenever we visit St. Louis. We recently decided to spend Labor Day weekend there just to get away—and it was nothing short of wonderful.We splurged on a suite on the concierge floor, and it was truly amazing. The suite opens into a spacious outer room featuring a comfortable sofa, a couple of chairs, a desk, a wet bar, and a convenient powder room. The separate king bedroom is generously sized, and the enormous bathroom features two lavatories, a glass-enclosed walk-in shower, a large bathtub, and an abundance of plush towels and luxury accoutrements.Of course, the concierge lounge is the crown jewel of the experience. It is kept stocked with every beverage imaginable, fresh fruit, and cookies throughout the day, followed by:• A fabulous breakfast with everything you could possibly want (and more)• Light, satisfying sandwiches for luncheon• Delightful desserts to wrap up the eveningThe Ritz remains the classiest destination in St. Louis, offering that signature old-world charm and ambiance that only a Ritz-Carlton can deliver. Above all, the service from the entire staff is consistently phenomenal. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

I just had my wedding here and from the very start it was a complete and utter nightmare. The staff handling weddings and events are overwhelmed and seem like they have little to no experience in hospitality or organization. The complaints I have are endless and range from giving crab meat to a guest with a noted shellfish allergy; charging me a surprise $4300 the week of the wedding “by accident”; telling me at 11:30pm the night before my arrival that my room would no longer be available for early check in. We had to sit in a random parking lot in St. Louis until we could go in; some of my guests were charged $700 per night when our wedding discount was $299 per room. When asked about this they told us we missed the cutoff date for the discount… there are emails dating back to March trying to discuss the cutoff date and the issues my guests were having with the booking link— we NEVER received any communication from the room coordinator. Not once; our menu and day of plans were not finalized until 2 ish weeks before the wedding day; guests were charged multiple times for parking instead the initial flat fee they pre-paid; the list goes on.If you are considering getting married here— DONT. I cannot express how terribly this was all handled. Communication on my end was frequent and thorough and I waited WEEKS between responses from the ritz. I wish more than anything I would have chosen a different venue. In fact I asked to get out of my contract so that I could go elsewhere but unfortunately I had to hold up to my end of the contract though the ritz did not. I left my reception early and in tears at how everything was handled. If I could scream this from the rooftops I would. They ruined the most expensive and important day of our lives, and they will ruin yours too. Do NOT choose them.Corporate— investigate this staff and hire a new one.

Service was excellent at this five-star property. Laura at the front desk was especially helpful my first night, and even wrote me a handwritten offering even more help than she already provided. Never had that experience before! All that said, the carpeting in the rooms and halls are a little dated and could used refurbishing. But the shower was so nice I didn’t even want to get out each morning! Everything else about this hotel was lovely.

Safe & Convenient LocationI chose the Ritz-Carlton because Clayton is easily the safest and most reliable area to stay in when visiting St. Louis. Given the reputations of some surrounding neighborhoods, this location provided great peace of mind throughout my trip.Exceptional Service & DiningThe staff was consistently friendly and helpful. A special shout-out to Paul at Casa Don Alfonso, who was incredibly accommodating and made my dining experience truly enjoyable. Don’t skip the pastry selection—it is magnificent! I even brought a few truffles home to extend the experience.Fitness Center FeedbackThe gym is impressively large for a hotel, featuring eight treadmills and a solid variety of weight machines and dumbbell racks. However, the dumbbells themselves are showing their age. For a property of this caliber, an upgrade to the free weights would really bring the fitness center up to the Ritz standard.

I go last time vacation with my friend & family This hotel but housekeeping manager she name is ( Ms.JENNIFER LYON ) I met the worst person in my life so far. She don’t no how to treat & help to guests wtf again when i see her next time their i talk or call with Marriott CEO…others service,members are so good thank you.
