PeaceOut - the times we stayed at the Chase Park Plaza, the room(s) we had were suites. I'm not sure

I've been researching St. Louis hotels for a few weeks now. Any thoughts on Homewood Suites Galleria? It gets great reviews online, so I'm not worried about the hotel itself. But it is in a good location with kids? Dining within walking distance? Easy to get to the zoo, Arch, City Museum, etc?
We stayed here (Chase/Park Plaza) we went to ST. Louis for opening day at the ballpark this year. My son in law booked the room (suite) and it wasn't very expensive. I think we payed $120/night, thru some website.
nanabee - Wow, that's a shockingly low price for a room at Chase Park Plaza!!! We haven't stayed there in years, but we had a friend who lived there while waiting for lung transplants. It was quite beautiful, and as you say, in a GREAT location!
So I'll hold onto the two rooms I have and let the inlaws and brother in law decide. It's gonna be tough. BIL wants the Marriott since it's cheaper at $104/night. Inlaws want the Hampton since they have enough points for a free room. We may just have to split up!
PeaceOut - the times we stayed at the Chase Park Plaza, the room(s) we had were suites. I'm not sure what the configuration of the hotel is now, but at that time, there were lots of rooms/suites dedicated to people who were in St. Louis for out-patient treatment, or (like our friend) waiting for organ transplants. That's the reason I advocated it so strongly.
