My stay was amazing. We had great food at 1587 and The Stilwell. I am so complementary of the hospitality. Rooms are nice. The bedding and shower is so comfortable. But baby, those BATH ROBES are top 10. I'll stay again.

I am not a big city person but due to the Covid the streets were mostly quiet until the evening when protestors were out.

This is my hometown, so of course, I love KC! The only downfall of the Fontaine was the view of the plaza lights. I feel like we would have been able to see the plaza better from a different location, but the area is great and the hotel is beautiful!
