Seven Gables Inn, an Oasis in the heart of Downtown Clayton
Tucked along a tree-lined street in downtown Clayton, Seven Gables Inn feels like a European country house. Built in 1926 and inspired by Hawthorne’s The House of the Seven Gables, this Tudor Revival landmark is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Steep gables, decorative half-timbering and original wood beams recall the manor houses of old England, while warm, personal service makes the inn your all-access pass to the best of Saint Louis.

A Charming Inn
Modeled on the manor houses of old England, Seven Gables Inn has been a Clayton landmark since 1926. Our courtyard is where memories are made: a drink with a friend, a wedding under the trees or simply a good book in the shade. With more than 3,600 square feet of event space for meetings, weddings and celebrations, it is no wonder the inn is considered one of the best hotels in the Saint Louis area.
