I came to the hotel Tuesday Sept.22 for 3 nights. I got me a room with a business suite. 2 rooms with a room with a work desk and couch and another for my king bed and the bathroom. Now, the first thin I noticed is when I entered the room. It has a breathtaking view of downtown Kansas City.... more

I booked through Priceline, then read some reviews here and was apprehensive about staying at the Crowne Plaza in downtown KC. However, I was pleasantly surprised, and found the hotel somewhat better than advertised. Location is good - close to everything downtown. Most of hotel seems to have been remodeled in recent years, and room was relatively large. Interaction with... more

Front desk on check-in went without a hitch and personnel were courteous and professional. Room was upgraded since I was a Priority Club member. Room was always cleaned and no problems noted. Hotel is a five minute walk or less to the Power and Light District where all the restaurants are located. Very good places to eat. Room also had... more

I stayed at the Crowne Plaza from August 21 to August 26. I waited twenty minutes to check in and was offered no service to take my bags to my room.

I called the front desk and they said the entire hotel was out and the electric company was on the way to look at the problem.... more

First off, let me start with the positives. I booked this place through Hotwire, and I got a great deal for a last minute trip to stay 1 Friday night in KC. Upon my arrival, they sold out the King Non-smoking room that I had requested in advance, and they tried to put me in a double...but at my insistence,... more

My fiance and I went to Kansas City for a relaxing weekend away. This hotel was nothing but stressful on our relaxing weekend. Let me give a play-by-play of what all happened. #1- their garage parking costs $13/day-- why would you charge your guests $13/day when the garage is located within the hotel??! That is just insane to me! #2-... more

We made a last minute decision to take our "20-something" kids on a weekend getaway to KC. I used Priceline hoping we could get a good deal on two rroms, and we did. After reading the comments I was a little concerned but we were pleasantly surprised! The hotel recently changed chains and is being remodeled and updated with completion... more
