Hidden Gem Bed & Breakfast

Hidden Gem Bed & Breakfast is a two-storey house in the Tower Grove area let to guests, with three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms – which makes it as suitable for a group taking the whole house as for a couple taking a room.

The house is set up with more than tourists in mind. It markets itself to corporate groups, business travellers and people running retreats, and the layout supports that: enough bedrooms for a small party, and common rooms that work for a group sitting down together rather than passing each other on the stairs.

Breakfast is cooked and served, with vegan options available on request – worth asking about in advance, as the kitchen keeps limited places for them. The hosts make a point of personal service, and guests tend to describe the house as welcoming rather than merely comfortable.

Tower Grove is a green, established part of south St. Louis, and Cherokee Antique Row is a short drive north-east, which makes the house a practical base for a visit built around the antique shops and the parks together.
