Angad Arts Hotel St. Louis, Tapestry Collection by Hilton is the only hotel in the world that allows guests to book a room based on the color of their emotions. The hotel announced yesterday that it is now part of The Tapestry Collection by Hilton. This portfolio of more than 150 independent hotels have “original, vibrant personalities that encourage guests to enjoy off-the-beaten-path experiences in destinations worth exploring.”
The hotel has 146 rooms including 38 suites. The property was developed by New + Found and designed by Lawrence Group. It was previously known as the Missouri Theater Building and was the last vacant historic building on Grand Boulevard in the Grand Center Arts District. Recent renovations to the boutique hotel include upgrades to its 12th-floor check-in desks and fitness center as well as the addition of a shop in the lobby that offers familiar favorites, local artisanal snacks, and gifts.
Nikolaus Kern, Angad Arts Hotel’s General Manager, said:
We are excited to partner with an iconic hospitality brand to bring Hilton Honors members a unique lodging option in St. Louis. We are confident that the Tapestry Collection mission aligns with our efforts of supporting local creatives, offering guests an inspiring experience, and providing a destination worth exploring. Angad Arts Hotel allows guests to select a room based on color, with each hue designed to evoke a distinct emotion or feeling. Complementing this immersive experience and the colorful personality of the property, our art installations and exhibits ensure that public spaces remain dynamic, encouraging guests to remain curious and visit again to discover limited-time exhibitions. Our commitment to creativity and individuality aligns seamlessly with Tapestry Collection’s vision of originality and standards, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring this partnership to our community.”
Angad Arts Hotel is all about the art. It features permanent installations and rotating art exhibits on the 1st floor, inside Commonwealth restaurant, and on the 12th floor. I like that all artwork is curated from local artists within a 200-mile radius and it can be purchased online (here). The hotel also offers a trendy rooftop bar known as ART Bar on the 13th floor. The hotel is now part of Hilton Honors so members can earn and redeem points for stays here. Members can earn an additional 1,000 bonus points per night when booked directly through Hilton’s website until August 31st.
Anthony’s Take: I like the design and art theme throughout this hotel. I can’t say that I have ever chosen a room based on emotion, but it’s a cool concept.

Have stayed here before and it’s a solid hotel, even if the edge has worn off a bit. There have been a slew of reworked buildings in STL turned into hotels, and each has had its turn at the top of the pile, including Hotel St Louis (Bonvoy), Pennywell (Hilton), and The Last Hotel (briefly part of WoH). Right now, it’s the 21c Museum Hotel, which is part of Accor. Hopeful that it keeps up its vibe, because it really is a great hotel. Sucks that ALL is such a crap program otherwise.
