Four Seasons St. Louis updates guestrooms

The Four Seasons Hotel St. Louis is set to complete a redesign of its 200 guestrooms and suites by midsummer. This multimillion-dollar renovation follows the recent revamp of the hotel’s first-floor arrival lobby and eighth-floor Sky Lobby and public spaces, which included the addition of the Cinder House restaurant. 

The design was led by St. Louis-based R|5 Design Agency, which expanded its work from the public areas into the guestrooms. 

Carpeting with a mottled blue, gray and taupe abstract pattern serves as a basis for the rest of the guestroom design. The rooms maintain a bright aesthetic with furniture and cabinetry in pale wood tones topped with white marble, and the custom-designed wallcovering serves as the focal point of the room. 

Guestrooms have a lounger upholstered in navy blue velvet, glass accent tables and light fixtures, floor lamps and textured accent pillows. 

“The design goal was to achieve a cohesive guest experience from the first step into the lobby through to the guestroom,” said Manuela Macias, design manager of R|5 Design. “There, we sought to create a superlative wind-down zone with soft and plush textures where guests can relax and enjoy the one-of-a-kind view. We integrated many local design aspects to connect guests to the city.”
