Can you recommend lodging that might be close to the Oratory or in an area conveniently located near by.
ReplyDeleteYour closest options are hotels in or near downtown Saint Louis. I can't give any particular recommendations, because I just don't know what is good.
ReplyDeleteAn alternative would be a hotel near I-44 in the city - there are a few on Hampton Avenue that might be more reasonable. These would also be an easy drive to the Oratory.

how near is this to st.peter and paul church and south 9th broadway?
ReplyDeleteIt is about a mile and a half.
ReplyDeleteI'll chime in on lodging and recommend the Drury Inn & Suites near Forest Park, off of Hampton. I know several people who have stayed there and liked it. The building is just a few years old, the rates are reasonable, and the hotel offers many nice freebies (hot breakfast, happy hour, wireless internet). The Drury family also supports the archdiocese and many Catholic schools and organizations. (I have no affiliation with them!) https://druryhotels.com/PropertyOverview.aspx?Property=0136
