Top Kansas City Hotel Reviews

Hotel Lotus Kansas City Stadium

Hotel Lotus Kansas City Stadium

8/10 Good
"This location made going to the Chiefs vs Colts game mind-blowingly simple. Watching traffic hit a stand still, for what seemed like hours, made us appreciate how close the hotel was. After we walked a short distance to the hotel, we managed to order and receive pizza before half of the parking for the stadium could clear out. The breakfast was hot and made for a good start for the trip home. The staff members I encountered were professional and kind. This is always a huge plus in my book. With all of this being said, isn't the cleanest place I have stayed. The carpets could use a scrubbing and the bed left a lot to be desired. All in all I would stay again."
