The Cheshire Inn is such a great, unique hotel - we loved our first stay here! We came in for WashU parents' weekend and stayed two nights. Very well-appointed hotel, super cute decorations and theme, very clean and tidy. The bar is a nice spot for a cocktail or draft beer and the lobby and sitting areas are spacious and comfy. Free breakfast was a very nice amenity. We very much look forward to staying at the Cheshire again in the future!
