Beautiful old school hotel near the country club plaza.Extremely courteous staff in all positions interacting with the customers, starting even before our arrival when I interacted due to our extremely late arrival.Tastefully decorated with sensible upgrades paired with old charm.We definitely enjoyed our weekend getaway. Only deduction due to mattress being in dire need of replacement.

A simply old school elegant hotel. Founded over 100 years ago as a boarding house it's gone through many changes. But what I love is many of the original parts remain... tile in our bath, the mahogany in the lobby and other items around this grand dame. Staff is so good, Rick gave us the first tour.... but everyone from the valet (awesome) to the front desk just wanted to help. Our suite was the perfect size (room 302) and we could walk to so many shops and restaurants. Room service is back and we had breakfast included which helped. And delicious btw. The bar downstairs is called Chaz and it's a fantastic place to hear music and eat.... and drink great wine. All in all, I found my new hotel in KC!

This hotel DEFINES 5 star. From the moment you pull up, someone is there to open your door, take your bags and give you a delightful welcome. Guest check in made us feel like royalty and the staff takes great pride in explaining fun facts about the history of the hotel. It is old and beautiful, immaculately updated with the latest luxury. To make the night even better, I received an upgrade due to my Marriott status and it was truly an upgrade. Room 405 has a jetted tub, with separate tub/shower. The regular tub is so deep it could act be a soaker tub. Big comfy living area with squishy pillows and a large king bedroom. I travel a lot for business and I would normally say that there is no hotel better than home...until I stayed here. The hotel has little amenities you wouldn't think of, like earplugs, heated lamp in the bathroom, and the sofa in the bedroom for stretching out with a blanket and a good book. I had the most relaxing night after dinner soaking in the tub with a bottle of wine, Netflix and a comfy robe. I was sad to go and I can't wait to go back.

What an absolutely cute hotel. Now a Marriott but it is a historic hotel that has been updated. Amazing bar with craft cocktails right at the hotel. Polite bellmen and good coffee.

My favorite autograph hotel in the Midwest and leads me to reminisce of Italy. the Marriott rewards upgrade may have ruined me. So gorgeous- a favorite pampering. The view from my room's windows overlooked the Raphael fountain and the Plaza. It's a favorite. The service is abundantly courteous, anticipates needs and does everything graciously. Love this Midwest hospitality!! Flight delay kept me from being able to enjoy the live Jazz in the Restaurant here-- so many great reasons to stay.

We stayed here for our anniversary.Everything was perfect: The staff, cleanliness, upkeep of the hotel the view from our room and more ... I wish I had a photo of the plaza lights to share
