St Charles Convention Center

I come here several times a year for various shows and with each experience, I’ve never had a bad one.
The center is always clean, the bathrooms are plentiful and its very inviting. There seems to always been enough space for the vendors.
I do have to say the parking isn’t the best, which is to be expected but I feel that maybe they should do a garage or something to accommodate better.

Very nice venue! I was here for a bodybuilding competition that had hundreds of competitors as well as spectators and it was great.
The restrooms were clean and roomy, well kept.
The parking lot was huge and there was a small café located up the escalator for snacks and coffee during the event. Although I did not eat here I took a gander at the menu of their full restaurant located on the upper level.

This is one of my most favourite Convention Centers I’ve experienced in the world.
I’ve had the honor & the privilege to visit, attend, and speak at a lot of convention center around the country and overseas and this one does it right!
It’s not huge — it’s not tiny, it’s just right! It’s the Goldilocks of Convention Centers!
Everyone who works there is friendly, ready to help, and just fantastic. Is it the famous Midwest hospitality or just professionalism? I don’t know — but the end results is that conference attendees, speakers, and organizers can enjoy première service in a lovely conference setting!
If you have the opportunity to attend a conference at this center, go! METC, the Midwest Education Technology Community conference is great here! LOVE IT!
I really liked the AV Tech guys who were there to make things go smoothly! I don’t know if they were in house or contract, but they were awesome! Thank you for your service!

Mrs. K. and I came to the convention center to celebrate her 35^th anniversary working as an RN for Mercy Hospital.
There were 1000 people to serve and serve they did. My wife had the «chicken» I had the «beef». That was our choices. I will say the beef was not the best I have ever had. It was not the worst. Which makes it very good for convention food. Mrs. K. said the same about her chicken.
The service was very good but really funny. The server asked our tables order 5 times and came back and repeated it wrong 4 times. God bless him. This was the only glitch the whole night.
So proud of Mrs. K. and the dedication she had made to her career. And she is a damned good intensive care nurse.

I’m on the fence because on one hand this place was really nice and connected to the hotel we stayed in which is a huge plus. But there were not enough seats for everyone to sit and watch the competition. I had to stand the entire time. That doesn’t really bother me but my friend is 4 moths pregnant and she didn’t have a seat.
