The Drury Plaza Hotel St. Louis at the Arch
$163
The Drury Plaza Hotel, a stately edifice shadowed by the looming Arch, holds its breath in the stillness of night, as flickering lights dance like anxious phantoms along the slick, polished hallways, whispering secrets meant for no living ear. Guests speak in hushed tones of shadowy figures lurking just beyond the periphery of sight, their cold, watchful eyes tracing the contours of weary bodies, an unshakeable sensation of being pursued coiling tight around the heart. In the depths of that unsettling silence, the air thickens with the palpable dread that maybe, just maybe, the walls have ears-and theyre listening for more than idle chatter.
