Southmoreland Mansion and Guest House on the Plaza | Sleeps 28!

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic time! We had 16 people staying in the house and plenty of room! Great communication from the host throughout the stay. The outside space was beautiful and I wish we had been able to use it more but we stayed in August and it was just too hot during the day. I will definitely keep this house in mind if we do this same trip next year and beyond."

Cascade Hotel, Kansas City, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very nice modern hotel, extremely close to the country club Plaza shopping and restaurant district. Decent size rooms, very clean. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Only slight missed steps were a noisy refrigerator that squealed most of the night in our room and could’ve used a pool, but that wasn’t the primary reason we were there. Would stay at this hotel again for sure!"
