PEG Announces Completion of Extensive Renovations at MainStay Suites St. Louis – Galleria

The newly renovated extended stay hotel in the heart of St. Louis re-opened under a new leadership team, focused on delivering a best-in-class experience, tailored for longer-term travelers.

St. Louis, MO (April 2, 2025) – PEG, a leading vertically integrated owner, developer, and operator of residential and hospitality assets across the United States and Canada, announced the grand reopening of the newly rebranded MainStay Suites St. Louis – Galleria, a Choice Hotels brand. Originally built in 1986 as a Gen1 Residence Inn by Marriott, the property was acquired by PEG in Fall 2018 and operated under the Marriott brand until undergoing a comprehensive renovation and rebranding effort beginning in April 2024. 

 

Located at 8011 Galleria Pkwy in the vibrant Richmond Heights neighborhood, the property offers 152 apartment-style suites across 19 buildings. Each unit—available in one- and two-bedroom configurations—features a full kitchen, living room, and modernized interiors, catering to extended-stay travelers. Guests will enjoy a robust lineup of amenities, including a marketplace, fitness center, guest laundry facilities, outdoor pool, a full-size basketball/tennis court, an outdoor grilling area, and more.  

 

The hotel’s prime location near Barnes Jewish Hospital, Cumberland Mall, and downtown Clayton makes it an ideal accommodation for project-based professionals such as traveling nurses, construction workers, and corporate employees, as well as individuals in transition between homes. 

 

“We’ve completely reimagined this property and are very pleased to have partnered with Choice Hotels to open this MainStay Suites Galleria,” said Chris Wilbourn, Regional Director of Operations for PEG’s Hospitality Management division. “This is our first time working with Choice, and we did so because we recognized the need in St. Louis for an extended-stay option that is both affordable and well-appointed. Whether you’re in town for work, waiting to move into a new home, or anything in between, our goal is to provide comfortable, flexible accommodations that meet your needs.” 

 

As a Choice Hotels brand, MainStay Suites is part of a network of over 80 independently owned and operated locations. Choice Hotels, a leading lodging franchisor with more than 7,000 hotels in all 50 states and over 40 countries, provides travelers with a diverse range of accommodations tailored to their unique needs. 

 

Beyond the property’s physical transformation, MainStay Suites St. Louis – Galleria is under new leadership with an expanded, highly capable team committed to delivering a best-in-class guest experience. This extensive investment in staff and service ensures that every guest receives the quality and hospitality PEG is known for.
