    Confirmed reservation from a few months ago for king room for concert... When asked why, we were told “there’s no guarantee” of getting the room that was booked... I guess my question is, why even bother with reservations if we’re not guaranteed the room that was being advertised, booked, and confirmed only to find out, at the last second, that we won’t be getting what we were lead to believe we were renting for the night?... I guess they don’t have that available here either, like our room... Becoming a firm believer in VRBO...

One more thing I want to say….. the staff was working very hard every time we saw them... Whether it was cleaning, bringing in luggage, just assisting the guest, everyone was working hard to make everyone’s say a pleasant one... We really appreciated seeing this because we have stayed places where the staff was just sitting around... Thank you Westin for making our staycation a success!...

    The rooms and facility were overall pretty clean despite being at max capacity the weekend I stayed... Thankfully the staff seemed kind and helpful and even gave us free breakfast coupons the day we were leaving and the food was great...

    ...Definitely one of the better Westin properties in the states! Service is friendly and welcoming, rooms are comfortable and clean plus the location is convenient!... Plus they have one of the better hotel gyms that Ive seen in my travels...

It had a refrigerator but no microwave, the coffee bar downstairs was closed Sat and Sunday... The lounge on 17th floor had been closed... Had refrig with soft drinks when stocked and some packaged snacks...

    ...Apparently that was our own fault as the fridge temperature is adjustable and a previous occupant must have changed it... Also, this Westin has the smallest beds Ever!... Money has been spent making the lobby area look good but the rooms are in seriois need of a refresh...

    Located right downtown with all the facilities you would expect. Right on top of the mall and a food court... Friendly staff and clean rooms; a good quality hotel for the price...

    ...They don’t clean the rooms as often as I would like, but otherwise everything was great. I stayed here for nine days and other than needing my room cleaned and having to ask for it to be done, all was great!...

I was suspect about staying here based on the reviews. But someone else booked my reservation for the business trip, so I decided to go with it. It's nowhere near as bad as the bad reviews make it seem. The staff is very nice and the furniture in the rooms and public areas is up to date. However, this is an old building, and you can tell by looking at it. It is very convenient that it's attached to the mall, but it's a little disconcerting that you don't have to use a room key to get use the hotel's elevators. Anyone could come in and go up to the rooms or follow someone. The fridge in the room was very old and I had to use the app to ask someone to get it to turn on. Once they did that though, it worked fine. There's a safe in the room and they provide room service every day. Heading to Union Station is easy with the walkway (which worked great in the winter). Parking and getting to the hotel from the garage is a little confusing the first time. I just made sure to park in the same general location each time so I didn't get lost. This seems like one of the higher end hotels in Kansas City so it can be very crowded on the weekends. I wish they had more than one restaurant, as I didn't want to go in the mall for dinner, but there are plenty of options if you're willing to leave the hotel. Overall it was a good stay.

The carpet was soaking wet. It was disgusting. The hotel was full and they didn't have a room they could move us to. The manager said they would comp us a night on a future stay, but when I called to redeem they wouldn't honor it because that manager wasn't there any more.

This hotel’s service was very poor. It’s disappointing because I spend so much time at Marriott properties. I had both WiFi and other issues in my room. I even tried to send a message using my Bon Voy app, but I never got a single response

I pay extra for the club amenities but they are not worth, the club lounge only offer coffee, sodas and some chips and cookies. For 30 dollars more is not worth. In my case went for a meeting and th day of my presentation there was no water in my room! I complaint and received points equivalent to 62 dollars! Not fair for the service received.

I have staying at this hotel for decades for a particular meeting that meets there every year. I skipped the last 3 or4 years but went this year. The hotel is fine and I have no problems with the staff or the cleanliness. I absolutely hate the white flashing light on the fire alarm. I don't know why it flashes or what the flashes mean or even what determines when it flashes. I couldn't hang a towel. I hope the hotel will do something about this. Maybe the manager could try to sleep in the rooms a couple of nights or something to understand the issue.

We were in town for the kansas city Oktoberfest this weekend. From check- in to check- out the front end staff was marvelous. Happy faces all around and they were so busy. The bellman with forty five years of experience was lovin his job. The valet parking associate was very friendly even with cars coming in quickly. The room was spacious and so clean. The room had a great view of the party. Comfortable beds. Being right across the street from the party made it wonderful. Sorry their is no Sunday brunch on the property anymore. Have stayed in the Westin before and loved the ambiance. Can not wait to come back again.

We stayed in august for 5 nights. My husband was here for business but it was pleasure for me. So it was great to find a hotel with an outdoor pool! During the week I literally had the pool to myself. The leisure staff were lovely. Worked hard to keep the area clean although I didn’t see the pool cleaned once ( it could go with resurfacing) Our room had a superb city view although this was hindered with the really poor state of the ceiling to floor windows. They wernt just dirty they were filthy. They haven’t been cleaned for a very long time. Such a shame as the room was quite a high standard and the cleaning staff were very good. There are no coffee/ tea facilities which was ok until 2pm . This is when Starbucks in the reception area closes. When I asked the mixologist at the bar where I could get a coffee after this time he said ‘ he had no idea’ and I couldn’t get a coffee from the bar. His attitude was very cocky and rude. He could have just told me if I went up the steps to the shopping Center that there was a Starbucks . Still none in the hotel though. Overall we had a good stay here. It’s in an excellent location and we would return.

Confirmed reservation from a few months ago for king room for concert. Upon arrival, was told they no longer had any king rooms available but they did have 2 double beds. When asked why, we were told “there’s no guarantee” of getting the room that was booked. I guess my question is, why even bother with reservations if we’re not guaranteed the room that was being advertised, booked, and confirmed only to find out, at the last second, that we won’t be getting what we were lead to believe we were renting for the night? This place used to be “goals” for places to stay. We even went with the “highest rated” places in town online…..it’s too bad. Very disappointed in this place. Also, Westins are known for that beautiful aroma right when you walk into their lobby. I guess they don’t have that available here either, like our room. Becoming a firm believer in VRBO.

Arrived today w my husband at 4:30pm. Here for the Billy Joel/Stevie Nicks concert:) We had reserved a room & prepaid 2 months ago. Were told “sorry, no king rooms available” ??? So here we are in our double bed ADA room that smells like a hospital, right off the elevator & next to cleaning closet. Not that it’s the end of the world, but what’s the point of making a reservation, as Jerry Seinfeld says, if you can’t HOLD THE RESERVATION?! The front desk lady told us that “reservations are not guaranteed” ???! I have never encountered this anywhere. Will never stay here again.

This hotel was very centrally located to the things my family enjoyed. The Crown Center was very nice with the neighboring World War I memorial. The Hotel Rooms had great space and very comfortable.
