Top Science City at Union Station Hotel Reviews

Hotel Phillips Kansas City Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"We had an excellent stay at Hotel Phillips. We were in town for only one night for a concert. The hotel was within walking distance to the T-Mobile Center and local coffee shops. The room was a good size and had everything that we could need for a one night stay, except for a mini fridge (not always necessary!). We also used the valet for parking our car and they were quick and efficient! We didn’t get a chance to check out the speakeasy, maybe next time!"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Kansas City Beacon Hill

8/10 Good

"Everything was in order, clean, but giving 4 stars due to first impressions. Upon arrival, had to wait for woman working front desk to finish her kisses/goodbye with her boyfriend, who was there a significant amount of time."

Loews Kansas City Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great trip as usual! Comfy and clean!"

Crossroads Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel, super welcoming staff upon checking in! We had drinks and lunch in the bar area and on the rooftop bar- food(Pizza was outstanding!) and drinks were great. One slight issue is that on Friday evening the loud music beat from the rooftop bar- could be heard in our 2nd floor room- would not stop me from a future visit."

Courtyard by Marriott Kansas City Downtown/Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"As always, everything was flawless. The hotel, breakfast, room, and amenities were all outstanding. I want to share a special note of appreciation for Ms. Marquisha at the front desk. Her vibrant energy, genuine kindness, and drive to exceed every expectation made both our check-in and our entire stay truly remarkable. Thank you, Ms. Marquisha—you really make all the difference. In an increasingly AI-driven world, you reminded us that a human touch, a warm smile, and a good laugh are completely priceless."

"We stayed one night in order to be near the Kauffman to attend an opera. We ate a yummy slice of pizza at Buffalo State and after the fabulous opera, enjoyed drinks at the hotel bar. Wish I had been organized enough to come with food to leave in the fridge. The open area/ breakfast room and cool roof terrace are really cool"

Sheraton Kansas City Hotel at Crown Center

10/10 Excellent

"It was a nice place with a good restaurant in it. Also the walk way to the mall was really nice."
