Best Missouri Hotels
Missouri is a true crossroads state, a place where the old-time East gives way to the open promise of the West; where Southern sensibilities rub shoulders with Midwest straight-talking. It’s also where the 3 great rivers of the U.S.—the Missouri, the Mississippi, and the Ohio—meet and merge. In Missouri, you can chance fortune on riverboat casinos, explore the caverns and woods of the famed Ozarks, and say goodbye to St. Louis (the last eastern city) before you say hello to Kansas City (the first of the West).
With 2 large cities and a plethora of smaller ones to choose from, your options for accommodation in Missouri are as broad as the rivers that crisscross the state. As befits this gateway to the West, Missouri luxury hotels are big, bold, and brash. Relax in en-suite spa tubs, enjoy cuisine from top-rated chefs, and admire amazing views across the plains. Casino resorts in Missouri are popular too, with many hosted in old-time riverboats. In the urban core, modern business hotels impress with their facilities, while country clubs and spa hotels in Missouri’s backcountry provide a chance to relax and unwind.
St. Louis marks the beginning the western half of the continent in style, with its iconic Gateway Arch towering 600 feet over the city below. It’s also home to cultural gems such as the St. Louis Art Museum, which features contemporary and ancient artworks among its 30,000-strong collection. Kansas City also does high art, with its Nelson Atkins Museum of Art boasting a renowned collection of East Asian pieces. The city is also proud of its Liberty Memorial to the fallen of WWI, which now hosts the recently opened National World War I Museum. The Ozarks, the biggest mountains located between the Rockies and the Appalachians, are also a big draw in Missouri, partly down to the outdoor fun to be had in their hills, lakes, and woods. The local amusement parks also attract many visitors, like Silver Dollar City, where old-time Ozark crafts and skills meet thrilling new rides in a unique attraction.
Kansas City certainly knows how to pull the visitors in, making its mark with excellent museums and great shopping facilities. St. Louis has a more old-world vibe to it, with its historic neighbourhoods, horse-drawn carriages, and riverboat cruises creating a wonderfully romantic atmosphere. It is also home to more commerce than KC, and has become an important destination for business travellers. The Ozarks attract both adventurous young travellers and families wanting a mix of outdoor fun and relaxation. Branson is one of the best-located places for those wanting such a vacation, while the larger city of Springfield attracts the general vacationer.
Both Kansas City and St. Louis are well served by domestic airlines, at Kansas City International and Lambert-St. Louis Airports respectively. For rail travellers, Amtrak provide services to St. Louis and Kansas City from either Chicago or San Antonio in Texas. Kansas City is also linked by rail to Los Angeles. Interstate 70 connects St. Louis and Kansas City to Kansas and Illinois, while Interstate 55 runs from St. Louis southward to Memphis. To travel to Missouri from the Southwest, Interstate 44 runs to St. Louis (via Springfield) from Oklahoma. Lastly, Interstate 35 connects Kansas City to Des Moines in the Northeast.
