i knew once we booked our wedding site in the stockyards we HAD to stay at the stockyards hotel! After viewing the rooms, we knew right away the celebrity suite would be the only way to go for such a big event. The room was beautiful and even had a small private patio with a hot tub! The room itself was not very large but it was extremely convenient being the only room on the first floor right next to the bar/restaurant. I thought the price was a little bit too much also but thought what the heck it's our wedding day! Because of the expenses I choose to pay a little bit every pay day and they were very nice in allowing me to do this, even though they charged the wrong card one time and lost a payment somewhere that i KNOW i made but I could not find the payment anywhere so it was eventually my own fault. The other issue i found was that we also booked the banquet room the night before the wedding. The managers refused to budge at all in giving any kind of discount on rooms/valet parking/etc. How do you charge thousands of dollars for a dinner and then charge $15 a car for parking? They informed us they offered a cheaper room rate if we had 4 or more rooms booked but would not count any suites as a room, therefore giving no discount. This did not make sense to me esp. since we had booked 3 of the suites they offered. I did not think this was very hospitable. Also, the suit was located right next to the janitor's room so throughout the night and early morning we constantly heard the door opening and slamming. Not the best night sleep i've ever had. Overall, the pictures turned out wonderful and the front staff was great but for the price and the feeling that everything had a price tag on it I doubt I will ever stay there again. Go in, look around, take a picture, and then go across the street to the other hotel thats half the price like most of our guests did.
