Top Science City at Union Station Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Kansas City Beacon Hill

10/10 Excellent

"Q., at the front desk checked me in., she was awesome!! Fast, friendly and professional."

Hotel Phillips Kansas City Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"Great, welcoming staff. Friendly, fast valet. Great location with a fantastic and fun speakeasy in the basement. Historic hotel with modern touches. Some fixtures were broken, but not terribly inconvenient. Would recommend!"

Kansas City Marriott Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms"

3-Bedroom Home in Downtown KC! 26

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was amazing. The house was super clean and we had everything we needed. It was about 110 degrees every day of our stay and the house stayed nice and cool over night. The location was close to lots of shopping, food and attractions. Lance did a great job of communicating and making sure every step of the stay was smooth. We would absolutely book again."

“5 STAR HOTEL TURNED LUXURY RENTAL” the Rieger Hotel!!!

10/10 Excellent

"This place was perfect for multifamily vacation. Every family was able to choose their own room in a section of the house so nobody was stepping on each other‘s toes and they were able to spread out and have their own space. It was perfect. The host was quick to respond and very kind hearted. He thought about everything. The kitchen was well equipped, and we did not need to go out and purchase items to get through the day. The balcony was a focal point where everybody loved to gather around in the evenings and enjoy each other’s company."

1812 Overture B&B

8/10 Good

"Very unique and historic home - comes with some quirks understandably as it was built in 1886, excellent hosts."

DOWNTOWN, 5 STARs, 65" TV, 4 BR / 3 baths EN-suite, UPDATED, walkable, BOOK NOW

8/10 Good

"Pros: It was very well located for things to do. It didn't take long to get to the art district, legoland, Andretti carts and games, and other places that we visited. We were pleasantly surprised that we had a parking spot right in front of the house on a one-way street so that was a bonus. Lots of places to eat nearby, and easy access to main roads. Nice appliances with a Kurig, French press, and really big fridge. Cons: Don't count on being able to get ahold of the owner for maintenance or anything else in a timely manner. Answers to questions came many hours after the question was sent, the number given at the property for messaging was never responded to. I know it's the responsibility of the people staying to clean up after themselves, but I think whoever cleans the property after a stay should make sure cooking utensils are clean for the next user. Frying pans, baking sheets, and spatulas were caked with dried-on food. If you want a quiet place, this wouldn't be for you, as it is right off the interstate and truck traffic is super noisy. It's also right across the street from a fire department so there were sirens at all hours of the night."
