My experience at Crowne Plaza Kansas City Downtown was quite mixed. While I appreciated the friendly staff and great location near the P&L District, I encountered significant issues with noise and service. The executive lounge I expected during my stay was closed, which was disappointing given the price I paid for the room. Additionally, I found the elevators and some aspects of the room itself, especially the mattress, to be underwhelming. Overall, while the staff made efforts to create a pleasant atmosphere, the various drawbacks made my stay less enjoyable than I had hoped.

Rooms

My room on the 23rd floor had a decent view, but I could hear loud elevator noise throughout my stay. The mattress sagged in the middle, which made sleep uncomfortable. Bathrooms felt too cramped to even fit a bath mat.

Service

5.0

The front desk staff were friendly, but I felt let down by their lack of flexibility regarding a late check-out request. They didn't even consider my status as a high-yield IHG member. I also had to remind them about housekeeping services, which were understaffed.

Location

The location was perfect for accessing the convention center and nearby restaurants in the P&L District, making it convenient for my trip. I was able to explore the area easily on foot.

Breakfast at the restaurant was standard at best, with weak coffee and a buffet that didn’t stand out. My experience at the lobby restaurant for dinner was frustrating; my burger order was incorrect, took an hour to arrive, and wasn’t cooked as requested.

Facilities

While the rooftop pool was a nice feature, the overall condition of the elevators was disappointing. They felt outdated and not properly maintained, which impacted my experience.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at Crowne Plaza Kansas City Downtown. The hotel's central location made exploring the area easy, and I enjoyed the cleanliness of the rooms. However, the noise level was disruptive, with sounds from nearby rooms and construction disturbing my rest. I was also disappointed with the executive lounge situation, which was closed during my visit despite being advertised, and the service at the restaurant was below expectations. 🤷‍♂️😕

I had a mixed experience during my stay at Crowne Plaza Kansas City Downtown. The location is fantastic, as it's close to multiple attractions, but my check-in took an excruciatingly long 27 minutes, and the room situation was not ideal. The room itself was spacious and comfortable, yet there were issues like a malfunctioning refrigerator and elevator noises that disrupted my peace. Overall, while the staff were friendly and I appreciated some aspects, the inconsistencies and service mishaps left me disappointed. 😕🏨

Breakfast was fine but nothing special, being a standard buffet with weak coffee. The promised lounge access was a letdown since it was closed, requiring us to navigate a crowded lobby instead.

The rooftop pool had a nice vibe but lacked sufficient sunlight after noon, which was disappointing. Additionally, the elevators felt outdated, adding to my overall discomfort with the hotel’s condition.
