GOOD TO KNOW

Gateway Retreat STL is located in the city of St. Louis, close to downtown attractions and central-city destinations. It is designed as a comfortable, private home base for exploring the city, not a rural or secluded retreat.

The home is intended for respectful group stays, family gatherings, city trips, business travel, and overnight guests included on the reservation.

Parties and events are not permitted. Gateway Retreat is located within a quiet residential neighborhood, and quiet hours apply.

THE GATEWAY RETREAT EXPERIENCE

Gateway Retreat was created around a simple idea: group travel is better when everyone can stay together.

Explore St. Louis, then come home to soak in the hot tub, challenge each other to a game, gather around the table, put on a record, or simply relax together.

It’s more than a place to sleep between stops. It’s your group’s home base for experiencing St. Louis together.
