Staff was excellent, rooms were great, rates were fair...can't wait to return. Can't really find anything to be critical of here. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone coming to KC. Starbucks downstairs is always nice!

Nice hotel in a good location was what this was all about. A few minutes walk into downtown & very close to the entertainment venue's. Visited the Harley Davidson factory & did the fantastic factory tour, hired a rental car for this which was a good move as was 30mins from the city. Staff were friendly & helpful.

In the 17 years we've been married, hubby and I have never had a night away together without kids since our honeymoon. So he decided to surprise me with a night for the 2 of us--without kids--at the Crowne Plaza. We checked in around 6:30. When we got to our room, which was small for a hotel this size, we... More

We had a nice one-night stay at the Crowne Plaza downtown KC. The hotel was very close to the Sprint Center where we attended a concert and the walk to/from was quick and we felt safe the entire time being on well-lighted city streets. The self-parking was easy, and despite one of the elevators from the garage being shut down... More

We had a very nice one night stay here. We were upgraded to a suite when checking in which was very roomy. As a Platinum Priority Club member we had access to the executive lounge and really enjoyed the complimentary drinks in the evening and breakfast in the morning in the lounge. The staff was very pleasant.

This does not seem to be up to Crowne Plaza standards. Room was very tired and run-down looking. Also, there was hair on the bathroom ceiling- makes you wonder what else hasn't been cleaned. The front desk staff was very nice and helpful. Pillows were too hard and make sleep difficult and I awoke with a back and neck ache.

somewhere in their descriptors it says "refurbished"...this may be true, but certainly not in the last several years. even the front door sticks, the interior is depressing, the breakfasts bland, and althugh the staff are pleasant they managed to get my simple invoice wrong, twice. very poor showing for a decent brand.
