Lumiere Hotel, St. Louis

After we checked out of Natchez Trace, we impulsively decided to go to St. Louis as our overnight stop on our way home. Turns out there is a gorgeous new casino downtown with two stunning hotels attached. We stayed at the Lumiere. It is one of those hotels where the rooms encircle the lobby from the inside, so each floor opens up so you can look down and see everything. This is the view from our hotel room floor.

We will definitely be staying there again!

  1. Looks beautiful! Hmm, maybe I'll give it a whirl when we visit our St. Louis relatives. Hehe, I'm not sure it's at our price level, though.

    Kristen, what kind of camera do you use? I love the crispness and clarity of your photos, especially the outdoor ones.

  2. It was surprisingly lower than we expected; we were there on a Sunday night without reservations and it was $150. And they are all suites! Maybe I'm used to Chicago prices, but that was a steal for the prime location and super-luxurious room.

  3. Oh, also: I have a Nikon D80. I made the investment a couple of years ago, and I'm glad I did. It's a little more camera than I need but I am growing into it. I also have a point-and-shoot, a Sony I think, that I used a lot on this trip too.
