Hilton brings the first property in its Curio collection to St. Louis. The St. Louis Union Station Hotel recently completed a $40 million renovation and offers 539 guestrooms and suites. It is set inside a historic railway terminal built in 1894. A National Historic Landmark, it was converted into a hotel in 1985. With an ornately decorated lobby, large Grand Hall and nightly 3D light show, the property is already a favorite in the city.

“Across the Curio collection, we take pride in offering guests unique hotel experiences that exude local flavor so, we welcome the landmark St. Louis Union Station Hotel to Curio. With its luminescent Grand Hall and eclectic amenities, this iconic property allows guests to discover all St. Louis has to offer and enriches our growing global brand,” said Mark Nogal, global head, Curio — A Collection by Hilton.

The Grand Hall is the focal point of the hotel, displaying Romanesque arches and stained glass. The 65-foot ceilings are the setting for the 30-vignette light show. Guests gather in the Grand Hall for locally brewed beers and signature cocktails named after railroad companies. Other dining options include The Market, with a 1920s-themed Starbucks, ornate fountain and historic fireplace, and the Station Grille, the station’s original restaurant.

The property’s amenities include a pool, courtyard and 24-hour fitness center. It is located within easy walking distance of many of the city’s favorite spots. Plans are in the works for a holiday extravaganza during the upcoming season, featuring 14 family attractions. In 2018, the property additionally welcomes the 75,000-square-foot St. Louis Aquarium, currently under construction.

Hilton HHonors members who visit the hotel Nov. 17, 2016–March 13, 2017, receive 1,000 bonus points. Gold and diamond members receive complimentary breakfast for two and room upgrades when available.
