Pear Tree Inn St. Louis Airport

Good breakfast. Lots of fruit flies. Tables needed wiping off. Entry floor very dirty with black drips from front to hall. Room very tidy and comfy bed. Very quiet with friendly and helpful desk staff. Not super happy with shuttle service on pick up from car rental place late at night. It drove way past the entrance making me run past homeless man to reach van. I was afraid they’d drive off before I could reach the van.

We booked very last minute for a Spring Break getaway. I was worried about the location so close to the airport but it was very quiet and clean. The staff is amazingly kind and friendly and we loved the shuttle to the airport to hop on the train downtown. One small thing is we picked a place that had breakfast included, but we didn’t realize the breakfast was the exact same every day. Other hotels have just the smallest variety. But overall it was a great value with genuinely helpful staff (for instance, someone opened up the milk for the breakfast bar at 9:30 pm for my son because he was so tired of soda - that was above and beyond for a kid) and we were pleasantly surprised.

We typically stay at the Marriott Renaissance for overnight stays before flying out. But in recent years we feel the hotel has become run-down, dirty, showing signs of age with uncomfortable beds, worn out bathroom tiles & plumbing, alll while the prices keep going up & up. The Renaissance was charging $156 before tax and parking fees on Booking.com vs Pear Tree Inn for $95 per night. On a whim we opted to try the Pear Tree and we are GLAD we did !! The front desk staff were super helpful and polite. The resort was packed with travelers due to an impending snow storm. The lobby was chaos but the front desk staff were the best I've ever seen at any resort ! The beds & pillows were very comfy. Rooms were quiet even though the hotel was packed. Locations to St Louis Lambert airport was perfect. Shuttle bus drivers were prompt, courteous, safe and efficient. I'll never go back to the Renaissance again. Pear Tree all the way !

Landon at the front desk was OUTSTANDING! What a great young man, professional, helpful, caring.... He even came to our room to help us figure out the TV!!! Then when we went to the lobby "happy hour" Ron was a 5-star host who personally served every guest at their table! We were highly impressed by his professional and genuinely caring service. Both of these men deserve praise for being great employees in a time when just finding employees is hard. Also liked the gated parking lot.

The early breakfast I did not use as I left the hotel at 4 AM for the airport. Shuttle service and driver were excellent. The room was a wonderful space and comfortable
