I rode Amtrak from Kirkwood (St. Charles) to Sedalia to return rental bikes to the Velo shop (very helpful people there) and had a wonderful stay at Hotel Bothwell across the street. The room was probably the smallest hotel room I've ever seen but quaint and comfortable. The lobby is lovely, there is a small work-out room, and a complimentary computer on the second floor.
The Ivory Grille has fantastic food- I had lunch and dinner there, plus appetizers in the lounge. Great salads,and the pork tenderloin was delicious. I had a good massage and facial at the spa (no longer located at the hotel, but they will pick you up).
