STAY NEAR THE ACTION

The Crossroads

If you're coming in for the weekend, we recommend staying in or around the Crossroads Arts District.

It's one of the best areas for experiencing Kansas City on foot—restaurants, coffee, cocktails, galleries and nightlife are all packed into the surrounding neighborhood.

Crossroads Hotel

For the full Kansas City weekend experience, Crossroads Hotel is our first choice.

2101 Central Street · Kansas City, MO 64108

A design-forward boutique hotel in the middle of the Crossroads, with restaurants, bars, a rooftop and an active neighborhood feel. It's especially good if you want your hotel to feel like part of the weekend rather than simply somewhere to sleep.

Hotel Indigo — The Crossroads

Hotel Indigo Kansas City – The Crossroads

2020 Grand Boulevard · Kansas City, MO 64108

A smaller arts-focused hotel housed in a historic Crossroads building, with locally inspired artwork and an easy location for exploring the neighborhood.

No Vacancy

For something smaller and more distinctive, No Vacancy is an eight-room boutique hotel on Wyandotte.

1717 Wyandotte Street · Kansas City, MO 64108

It's intimate, eclectic and particularly good for couples or friends who want a more residential, design-forward stay. Because there are only eight rooms, book early if this is your pick.

Loews Kansas City

If you'd rather have a larger full-service hotel, Loews Kansas City Hotel is a polished downtown option close to the Crossroads.

1515 Wyandotte Street · Kansas City, MO 64108

It offers full hotel amenities, restaurants and bars, an indoor pool and easy access to Downtown and the Crossroads.

Our pick:

Stay in the Crossroads if you can. You'll be close to much of what we've included below and you'll get a much better feel for Kansas City than staying near the airport.
