We were able to get the Crowne Plaza Hotel downtown to give us a
special rate of $89/room for the nights of October 12th and 13th. This
is a savings of $20 off their regular room rate, so it's a good deal,
if not still a bit pricey (but hey, it's a really nice hotel, too).
But the big advantages of staying here is A) you're downtown (lots to
see), and B) you're only 3.5 miles (less than 10 minutes) from Off
Broadway. Just make sure you mention the Show-Me Blowout when calling
in your reservation: (314) 621-8200
Now, if $89/night is still too much, we can also recommend the nearest
Motel 6 at 6500 S. Lindbergh Blvd. in South St. Louis County, but
that's considerably further (9.4 miles to the venue) and isn't really
close to anything interesting, other than maybe Grant's Farm. The
normal single room rate here is just $51.99/night. They weren't able
to give us any sort of special room rate for this event, sorry. (314)
892-3664
Another thing you can do is to go to www.priceline.com and for a zip
code type in St. Louis and then, after you search for hotels, look for
the "name your price" link under "More Ways to Save" on the right
side. Click that link, then on the next screen choose Downtown St.
Louis, then either 3-Star or 2 1/2-Star Moderate-Plus. Then just put
in $50 or $60 in the "Name Your Own Price" box and see what happens.
You may end up at the Raddison, Ballpark Hilton, or the Sheraton. All
nice hotels and downtown, which is cool, and within a few miles of the
venue. Good luck.
