Top University of Missouri-Kansas City Hotel Reviews

InterContinental Kansas City at The Plaza by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"What a gem on the Kansas City Plaza! So close to the beautiful creek with its walks to the Nelson Atkins Museum, Kauffman Gardens, Loose Park, UMKC, and the Miniature Museum. Great views from the rooms and near to so many good restaurants and bars and shopping. Love the beautiful fountains and sculptures and the Sevilla vibe!"

Hilton Kansas City Country Club Plaza

8/10 Good

"We didn't have a chance to really use the amenities around the facility. Really the only complaints we have for this visit, is one, only two bath towels in the room. This is standard, but a third towel would not hurt anything. I don't know a female that wouldn't use a second bath towel if it were available. I could have requested one but we were 45 minutes from checking out, so we made it work. Second, there are no free water options in the facility. I'm not paying $2.50 for a bottle of water that I can get at QT for less than a dollar. There are no water fountains or bottle fillers in the lobby or common areas. There are plenty of people that are still going to buy your water bottles, but a bottle filler would be an option to keep shlubs like me from leaving negative comments."

Aloft by Marriott Kansas City Country Club Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"Five stars across the board! Helpful, friendly staff, wonderful amenities including an AMAZING gym, and when I ran into a problem with my A/C in my room, they were on top of it in lightning speed! Absolutely 10/10 experience! Will definitely be back!"
