    0:10 That's a very neat way to call an elevator

      Yeah it is. An original system as well.

    I stayed at the Drury Plaza at San Antonio Riverwalk. The hotel was amazing. The building was historic art deco with amazing viewing balconies throughout. Not just private room balconies which were only in the new portion but actual general balconies open to all guests via room keys. Under the stairs to river level they had a display with the old Otis lever controls for the elevators. Drury Plazas are amazing hotels!
    Edit: left out that the rooms were great too!

      Drury Hotels are awesome. This is one of the most unique hotels I've seen before, and I have a tour of this place coming out soon.

      STL Elevators I look forward to your tour. Drury’s are also a great value too with their breakfasts and kickbacks in the evening. The San Antonio Riverwalk was incredible.
      The newer building called San Fernando Tower had the roof open to guests as a viewing area where you could look down on San Fernando Cathedral. As well as both buildings having swimming pools. The newer had indoor the older which was a skyscraper from 1929 had a rooftop pool that was terraced. The pool was up top but there were 3 floors of seating areas teraced looking out over the city.

    These lifts are cool with the beautiful decor in the cabs and the fact they have been kept original is cool aswell. I hope these don’t get modernised. They also have a cool stop sound too.

    Drury has a rather eclectic selection of properties... some with historic roots like this one, some are built new, they've renovated former Granada Royale Hometels and Embassy Suites properties, and even a former YMCA building was gutted. The ones I've stayed at have been very nice.

    • @stlelevators
      @stlelevators  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've stayed at multiple, and all of them have been nice.

    This is the first video from you that I've seen that has an OTIS Series 1 that has only a key reader and no call button in the lobby to call an elevator.

    just stayed at the hotel. you no longer have to put in the card on the first floor, now it’s just a RFID scanner

    • @stlelevators
      @stlelevators  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      So the system was upgraded?

  • @Skivator
    @Skivator 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Now that’s unique! I like the call station on 1. Never seen that before. This whole place seems cool. They just opened one of these near me. What was the elevator to the left at 2:42?

    • @stlelevators
      @stlelevators  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I love the call system. It's original to the install.
      That's the service elevator. I have a detailed walk through of this hotel and videos of the other elevators coming soon.

    Why does these elevators require a key card

  • @PNWElevatorAviation
    @PNWElevatorAviation 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    There's another Elevator that does that too lmao

  • @SeattleElevators
    @SeattleElevators 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    On the top floor you can hear the motors pretty well just like the elevators at my local mall. Seems really cool how you scan your key card and it lights up "call recognized"

    • @stlelevators
      @stlelevators  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I've never seen it before. You can hear the relay activate when the card is entered.
