Hotels in Kansas City, KS

“I almost did not book with Great Wolf after reading some of the negative reviews, but I'm glad I decided to go. If you mentally prepare yourself for the negatives (rundown look of carpets and walls, unkept landscaping, ridiculous parking charges, long check-in process, outdated Magiquest technology), it makes it easier to enjoy all the available fun. We chose to enjoy our meals off-site because their food was overpriced and reviews indicated it wasn't stellar. Bob Evans is right down the road for a square and reasonably priced breakfast. We tried a FABULOUS barbeque joint (Slap's BBQ) about 15 minutes away. As for Great Wolf, our room was clean. It smelled a little musty, but that's to be expected for a lodge that has guests bouncing back and forth to a water park. The water park itself was a ton of fun, and lifeguards were abundant and focused on keeping the environment safe. I really appreciated that! We visited in the middle of the week, so lines weren't bad and we could enjoy MANY trips on the water slides. Magiquest was still a lot of fun despite the old age of the technology. We just accepted that we couldn't finish the dragon adventures due to quirkiness of the game. Still, we had hours of entertainment reading clues and tracking down items!”

“Kathy who runs this place is an amazing person. She was very kind and compassionate and made you really feel at home. My wife was in for a surgery and this was such a great place to stay near the hospital. Thank you so much”

“The room was great and we will definitely be back! My only complaint is that they offer a bar and a spa here at this location and the one day the bar was open the days we went there was not a bartender available so the bar was closed and then we tried to get massages and again they told us there was not a massage therapist available this is one of the reasons we chose this place so I was definitely bummed about that and hopefully next time it will be better. The rooms alone make it a great place to visit”

“Always stay in CWS when I’m in the KC area. This property near the KC speedway is my favorite by far over Olathe and Overland Park. First time here, booked an 8 night stay and 5 days in. My 1 bed suite is impeccably clean, nothing missing from the kitchen (encountered in previous properties), the carpets were cleaned this week and they resurfaced the front parking lot with minimal impact to guests. Andy (GM) and his team are great and very responsive! Will never book any other property but this one when I visit the KCKS area. Everything is within ½ miles that you could possibly need for restaurants, shopping, entertainment. It’s quiet, safe and convenient.”

“I have been going here with my family for years. The only downside is the price but we see it as a splurge so we usually come just for one night once a year. We always arrive a few hours early and our room is usually ready. The water park is awesome, something for everyone. They have improved the food service over the years, they have vegan options and mocktails which are really great. We did the magiquest one year it is really time consuming so we would not do it again. The rooms are really cute, sometimes we get a regular room but a few times we have reserved a kid cabin which has a separate bunk bed. This place is really a top notch indoor water park. It is very clean and safe. I have never been in the summer but they have some outdoor stuff as well. Eta: kids beds are terrible, my kids always complain about how uncomfortable they are. Cute themed rooms but bed comfort leaves a lot to be desired”

“We visited Best Western Plus Kansas City Airport-Kci East after the heavy weather. The staff was helpful, based on the circumstances and being short-staffed. The amenities worked fine and the room was spacious. I would recommend.

Rooms: The rooms are spacious with table and chair as well as a couch. It was clean and the stay was enjoyable.

Food and drinks: Travellers who had to leave before standard breakfast hours were given goodie bags - which is really awesome!”

“The hotel was wonderful. When I first arrived I was a little concerned with the area but the area turned out to be quiet and safe. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and presentable. I would recommend a stay here.”

“The new manager was super nice and helpful . Housekeeping was supposed to clean the room before we got in but they didn't so we cleaned it ourselves. Not bad for a cheap motel, rooms could use a fresh coat of paint, but not bad. Usually in cheap motels like this you would expect some kind of bugs, not a single one in sight though. Happy surprise there !! Haha just being honest !”

“I've been here several times.. The owners have always been pleasant..... price is always good! It's not the Marriott...but what do you expect.... I can say the pictures on do not accurately show the motel.. There is no pool... And it's very clean! Alot of the rooms have been updated.....”

“Service from the front desk was exceptional! The pool was broken, which was a bit of a bummer but we were allowed to go to another hotel a few miles away and swim. Great breakfast. Clean rooms. Elevator might need some fixing, but overall a good stay!”

“It could have been much worse. Mainly was annoyed that I asked for a late check out and reminded them 3 times and they still came knocking on my door at 11:15.

My room wasn't comfortable. The shade was broken, hair residue in tub, and trash in bin. None of those deal breakers- again more annoying than anything.

Several restaurants within walking distance. Big well lit parking lot.

Several buildings make up the hotel with 2 levels. I didn't see an elevator. They had an outdoor pool. Vending, on site laundry, ice machines, complimentary breakfast.

The breakfast was good.

$77 for one night. That's reasonable.

I like that most hotels are converting lamps to have charging ports. Nice touch.”
