About this property

Historic 3-Bedroom Guest Suite · Prime Forest Park Location in Central West End

This private, top-floor guest suite occupies the former servants’ quarters of an 1890s mansion located at the historic Lindell Boulevard entrance to Forest Park.

You will have the entire three-bedroom top-floor suite to yourself.

The layout is spacious and well suited for families or groups, with a large family room that includes two convertible couches for additional sleeping and multiple TVs throughout the suite.

Large windows provide direct views of Forest Park, including the historic entrance and surrounding green space.

The kitchenette is compact but fully functional and designed for light meals and daily convenience. It includes a Nespresso machine, coffee maker, electric kettle, countertop Breville convection oven, dishwasher, and a small refrigerator.

The home sits at the edge of Forest Park and at the gateway to the Central West End, one of St. Louis’s most walkable and desirable neighborhoods.

Forest Park is immediately adjacent and is home to many of the city’s most significant cultural institutions, including the Saint Louis Zoo, the Saint Louis Art Museum, the Missouri History Museum, the Saint Louis Science Center, and The Muny (Municipal Opera), the country’s largest outdoor musical theater. The park also offers golf courses, tennis courts, and seasonal ice skating.

The Chase Park Plaza Hotel is just steps away and offers multiple restaurants, bars, and a full movie theater, all within a short walk of the suite.

Daily conveniences are close at hand, including grocery stores, cafés, and a wide range of dining options throughout the Central West End. The Barnes–Children’s Hospital complex is also within easy walking distance.

In addition to Forest Park, the Central West End is home to the World Chess Hall of Fame and the Saint Louis Chess Club. Together, they have helped make St. Louis an internationally recognized center for competitive chess. The neighborhood regularly hosts national and international tournaments, bringing visiting players, families, and chess enthusiasts to the area. Both the Hall of Fame and the Chess Club are an easy walk from the suite.

Guests enjoy the privacy of a full guest suite while staying in a historic, owner-occupied home that has played a role in St. Louis civic and architectural history for more than a century. Historic postcards and photographs of the property, displayed throughout the suite, reflect its long relationship with Forest Park and the surrounding neighborhood.

Other Details to Note
This is a top-floor guest suite in a historic 1890s home and requires walking up two flights of stairs. There is no elevator.

Access to the suite is through a shared interior hallway of the owner-occupied home, followed by a private stairway to the top floor.

Once upstairs, the guest suite itself is entirely private and reserved for your stay. We respect guest privacy completely and do not enter the suite unless invited.

As with many historic buildings, the home includes original architectural features and period details that reflect its age and character.

The location is urban and very walkable. As a result, you may occasionally hear typical city activity.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Wonderful space and perfect location! My husband and I worked from the suite for a few days and it was perfect. We were able to walk to many locations - restaurants, arcade, ice cream shoppes, park, chess club, etc. It was a wonderful stay and the owners are very responsive!

It was great! Tons of space, comfortable beds, and the recently renovated bathroom and mini kitchen were quite nice. Location was convenient for me, and the Chase Club (bar) and the Tenderloin Room (steakhouse) across the street were both great.

The place and location were lovely... Wish I'd noticed that it was on the third floor beforehand but I likely just missed it in the description and it made for terrific views of Forest Park. An ice maker would be a great future improvement.

Disliked: Check-in
Traveling from out of state, we absolutely loved the place! It was clean, comfortable, and perfect for our stay. My only issue was that we didn’t receive the full check-in information until just after our scheduled check-in time, which caused a bit of unnecessary anxiety. Also, just a heads-up—be prepared to take your shoes off before heading up two flights of stairs. We adjusted, but it would’ve been nice to know ahead of time so we could have socks or slippers ready. Overall, a great stay once we got settled in!

Concert weekend

We stayed in their house for 1 night. Beautiful home in the perfect location. I felt very safe. We saw dozens of people out running that morning. The house was very clean. We didn’t use the kitchen, but noticed there wasn’t a stove, but there was a toaster oven. There was also a mini fridge. The beds were very comfortable. Loved that there were 2 pull out beds in the living room as well. I would recommend bedding for those beds as we had planned to use them, but didn’t bring our own blankets. We just ended up sharing beds so it worked out fine for us. The scenery was beautiful and loved the historic area around the house as well as the details inside the home. The pictures of Forest Park in the early 1900’s was also a nice touch! I would 100% stay here again. Also, I had to message the owner a couple times and he was very responsive. Thanks for sharing your home with us. Our friend group loved being able to stay together in one home instead of different hotel rooms!
