Top Bruce R Watkins Cultural Heritage Center & Museum Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Kansas City Beacon Hill

10/10 Excellent

"Good place for workers to rest"

Aida Hotel

8/10 Good

"Pros: The location is perfect for visiting art museums. The Asian and Western art decoration is unique and pleasant. It is close to the Kansas City free Streetcar station. The staff is freindly. Cons: There is no frontdesk and no elevators. To get help from the staff you have to call. Sometimes they are half an hour away. There is no breakfast, only a expressor machine, sweets and apples. It is not close to pharmacies or convinient stores."

Hilton Kansas City Country Club Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was just as we expected for a property like this, very clean, nice amenities, and super helpful staff."

Southmoreland on the Plaza an Urban Inn

10/10 Excellent

"What a charming location right down the street from the plaza. A home away from home! Kansas City was very hot the day we arrived and the room was cool and comfortable, bed wonderfully cozy and a welcome bag was such a nice touch. We will return, and tell others of this hidden gem! Thank you!"

Residence Inn by Marriott Kansas City Country Club Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"We came to Kansas City to visit an exhibition at the Nelson Atkins Museum, so picked this hotel mainly for it's close proximity from the museum. It's location is excellent, just steps away from Kansas City's historical neighborhood Country Club Plaza with various stores and restaurants around, close to museums and attractions. Friendly staff, clean rooms, comfortable beds, decent breakfast. The only complaint comes from parking, it charges for onsite parking while there are plenty of free street parking around and even a free parking lot nearby."

AC Hotel by Marriott Kansas City Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"Na"

Cascade Hotel, Kansas City, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very nice modern hotel, extremely close to the country club Plaza shopping and restaurant district. Decent size rooms, very clean. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Only slight missed steps were a noisy refrigerator that squealed most of the night in our room and could’ve used a pool, but that wasn’t the primary reason we were there. Would stay at this hotel again for sure!"
