The eleven-story building where Hyatt Centric Downtown St. Louis is located was constructed as the headquarters for Roberts, Johnson & Rand Shoe Company, one of the major players in St. Louis's shoe manufacturing industry in the early twentieth century. Architecturally, the building is significant for its Sullivanesque design, featuring slender vertical columns, elaborate ornamentation and Art Nouveau influences. Its distinctive façade remains an important reminder of the era when Washington Avenue was at the center of St. Louis's garment and footwear industries.

The hotel's 142 guestrooms pair contemporary décor with abundant natural light, high ceilings, oversized windows and city views. Honoring its historic roots, the industrial-inspired rooms and suites reflect St. Louis's welcoming, down-to-earth character, with open layouts, modern furnishings and select rooms offering a dedicated seating area with a sofa.

Designed for lighthearted travelers with an adventurous spirit, Hyatt Centric Downtown St. Louis serves as a home base for discovery, placing guests at the heart of the city providing easy access to the city’s culture, dining and entertainment.

Guests and locals can gather at The Link, the hotel's lobby restaurant and bar, which serves locally sourced, sophisticated New American dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The menu features St. Louis-inspired favorites, including toasted ravioli and The Hill Classic pizza, alongside offerings prepared in the restaurant’s signature wood-burning pizza oven and wood-fired grill. The Link's name references Theodore C. Link, the St. Louis architect associated with the historic building and best known for designing St. Louis Union Station. Guests can also gather at the Lobby Bar or enjoy 24-hour grab-and-go convenience at Provisions, a market featuring sandwiches, salads, and other essentials.

On the rooftop, Expedition is a seasonal bar and pool where guests can gather and take in stunning views of downtown St. Louis. The venue features a full bar with shareable dishes and creative cocktails. Expedition will be open during the spring and summer for lunch and dinner throughout the week, extending the hotel’s role as a place to pause, gather and take in the city from above.

Hyatt Centric Downtown St. Louis offers approximately 11,750 square feet of flexible meeting and event space for executive meetings, social celebrations, weddings, rehearsal dinners and welcome receptions, including a ballroom capable of hosting more than 200 guests. Additional amenities include a 24-hour fitness center, a rooftop pool and pet-friendly accommodations.
