St. Louis Union Station Hotel, Curio Collection by Hilton, hotel in St Louis, United States
St. Louis Union Station Hotel is a late-1800s railway station building converted into a lodging property with 567 rooms, some located within a historic clock tower. The building retains its original railway architecture throughout, blending restored stations spaces with guest rooms and modern hotel facilities.
The building opened as a railroad station in the late 1880s during the height of American rail travel, when trains were the main transport for long-distance journeys. It was later converted into a hotel to preserve the structure and adapt it for modern hospitality.
The hotel occupies a former train station building where the design and layout still reflect its original purpose as a major railroad hub. You can walk through spaces that served travelers in the early days of American rail travel, experiencing how people moved through this building a century ago.
Clock tower rooms offer views of the Grand Hall, where light shows play in the evening hours with rotating themes and colored patterns. You can watch from guest rooms, the bar area, or standing within the hall itself at different levels for varying perspectives.
The Grand Hall features evening light shows that play on the ceiling every hour from late afternoon through night, rotating between themed displays based on famous musicians or artists. The shows turn the historic hall into a contemporary light art experience that changes nightly.
