Amarillo, Texas is now on the Guest House map! :)

Our family had a great time in this historic neighborhood. We thought not having a stove/oven might be problematic but it wasn't at all - there were so many places nearby to explore we didn't miss cooking for ourselves. There are steep steps - the rooms are on three floors - but our 3 and 5 year old were able to handle them just fine. Everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived. The location is great to get on the highway for downtown but be sure to save time to explore historic St Charles and Main Street. (check the times for things - lots are closed Mon/Tues) We enjoyed staying at The Guest House, had quick replies to any correspondence from our hosts and will definitely look in to this, and their additional properties, for future visits to St. Louis.

Great place near Main Street

The Guest House is an amazing place to stay. Its location is central to the shops and restaurants on Main St. You can walk to everything! The house itself was very clean and provided us everything we needed for our stay. The hosts were very responsive to an issue that honestly was our own fault. T they were great to work with. We have stayed here before and the back patio is a great addition. We will definitely stay here again.

Exactly what We Needed

My son was playing college hockey at the Centene Ice Center, so my husband, my son’s girlfriend, and I all flew in to watch. The house was the perfect setup for us: 3 levels (so we hall had our own space), common areas that allowed us to watch movies when we were together, but with a door to the area that allowed us to work quietly if we needed, as well. It’s right near historic downtown and not far from the rink and casinos. Our hosts were fantastic: their communication and willingness to work with us. We didn’t know how long we’d be there because if the team won, they’d move on to play additional games.

Great location; charming home

This cottage beats a hotel any day of the week. There’s plenty of room, charming decor, and attention to details. Not to mention the proximity to everything old St. Charles has to offer. We’ve stayed here or at other cottages owned by the same company several times when visiting relatives in St. Louis and we’ll continue to do so.

Great b&b, awesome location

We were pleased to find this old, historical b&b very comfortable, clean, and pleasantly livable. The location couldn't have been better as we were able to walk to breakfast cafes, to shops, to the Missouri, to historical buildings, and to nice restaurants. Surrounded by ancient brick streets and buildings, we felt immersed in history. We would definitely go back!
