The hotel responsible for starting the trend of laying chocolates on guest pillows, St. Louis’ Roberts Mayfair hotel is an elegant and romantic lodging option in downtown St. Louis. Actor Cary Grant is reported to be the first to start the practice, having laid a trail of chocolates throughout his parlor suite to lure his female companion to the bed in the 1950s, but the hotel has continued the tradition as well as adding dozens of other hospitable touches to make guests feel welcome.

179 guestrooms and 136 demi-suites feature a unique blend of timeless beauty, in the form of stained glass windows and rich wood furnishings, and updated amenities like high-speed internet access and WebTV. Thoughtful additions like pillow-top mattresses and Bath and Body Works bath amenities enhance comfort, while Herman Miller Aeron ergonomic desk chairs and 42-inch plasma flat-screen televisions assure guests that they can be both relaxed and productive in the well-appointed rooms.

The beautiful rooftop swimming pool and private fitness center allow guests to clear their minds while working out, plus on-site special events facilities can accommodate groups of any size, whether it be small business meetings in conference rooms or large-scale galas at the adjoining Orpheum Theater. Wedding facilities are also available, and the glittering chandeliers and romantic ballroom have attracted past guests including Harry Truman and Irving Berlin. A national historic landmark, the Roberts Mayfair Hotel in St. Louis is an enduring symbol of luxury lodging in downtown St. Louis.
