Four Seasons Hotel, St. Louis, MO USA

I didn’t know much about St Louis prior to my arrival, and sadly, I wouldn’t learn much about the city itself during this trip – my three days here would be divided between my hotel room, the conference center, and wherever we ended up for social gatherings in the evening.
