Top Kansas City Art Institute Hotel Reviews

Hotel Westport Kansas City, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Beautifully renovated boutique hotel conveniently located in the Westport neighborhood of Kansas City. Staff is helpful and pleasant. We loved our room: comfy beds, gorgeous bathroom, tastefully decorated. The soundproofing is extraordinary! We could hear guests for a few minutes in the hallway, then silence after they entered their rooms! In house restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Nice menu, reasonably priced. We throughly enjoyed breakfast during our visit; the food was well prepared and delicious and Chef Kevin was charming when he stopped by our table. Also worth mentioning is their ample, well-lit parking lot, in an area where off-street parking is at a premium. Will definitely visit again and highly recommend!"
