Where should we stay the night?

We have reserved rooms at Hilton St.Louis at the Ballpark at a discounted rate. We will continue the party at bar 360 (the top floor of the Hilton) after the reception, so this is a great option. But, there are TONS of hotels in the area so feel free to book where you are most comfortable!
