HISTORY/OVERVIEW:
By combining new construction with the historic Gateway-Statler Hotel and Lennox Hotel, HRI created a worldclass convention headquarters hotel that enabled St. Louis to more effectively compete for conventions on a national basis. The hotel is operated by an affiliate of Marriott International, Inc. on a long-term basis. The property is located directly across Washington Avenue in downtown St. Louis from the convention center. The property includes a 38,000 square-foot ballroom and 8,000 square feet of retail space. Climate controlled access exists between the hotel and ballroom/parking garage via a tunnel under 9th Street, so as to maintain the historic character of the neighborhood.
