Top Kansas City Hotel Reviews

Stoney Creek Hotel Kansas City - Independence

8/10 Good

"The room was pretty clean. The faucet didn't have much water coming out, but it wasn't too bad."

Ameristar Casino Hotel Kansas City

8/10 Good

"Nice room, helpful staff. Besides the attached casino there is not much else around but it's only about a 20 min drive to downtown KC."

Orangewood Inn & Suites Kansas City Airport

8/10 Good

"A property was quite okay. The breakfast was mediocre. I would stay there again the only thing I would say is that the attendant that checked me in she was a little heavy set girl with some sort of weird accent was very arrogant and a pain in the butt. She was not there I would have rated over all four stars."

Crowne Plaza Kansas City Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice and clean hotel and close to the t-mobile center downtown which is only a 6 minute walk. Parking and check-in/out process was very easy as well. I would stay here again!"

Sonesta Select Kansas City South Overland Park

10/10 Excellent
