Great for business travelers
The room was clean and stylish. Great shower. I cannot emphasize this enough, the quietest hotel room I have ever stayed in. Once in my room I didn’t hear another guest, cars outside, HVAC noise, absolutely nothing.

Great place to stay.
Great place to stay. Hotel staff was amazing. Will stay here again. Bar staff probably needs some training. Cosmos and expresso martini were good. The dirty martini was undrinkable and we still had to pay for it.

Great Trip in Kansas City
We had excellent service and team members went out of their way to get us a roll away bed and refrigerator. Our handle on the toilet broke and they came to repair it within an hour. The location was great we had a great stay!

Great stay in Kansas City
This was a great hotel to stay in Kansas City. The room was very clean and spacious and provided for a very relaxing stay. I ate at the onsite restaurant and although I was the only one in the restaurant, the food was still pretty good. Good location with many things nearby and coffee shops. Only downside was that the AC panel in my room fell off and left a big open hole on one of the walls in my room, which wasn’t necessarily an issue, but definitely have never had that happen in a hotel room before. Overall still a great stay.

Loved the restaurant and speak easy located within the hotel. The vibe of the hotel was very cool. You felt like you were stepping back in time to a jazz club. While part of the hotel's charm is its deep history, it's also one of its weaknesses in terms of functionality and cleanliness. Our room was fairly beat up in terms of the structure itself, cracks in the walls, peeling paint, worn down carpet with lots stains, finicky doors, and mild odours.
The staff at this hotel were very helpful and accommodating.

Service staff were very professional, super friendly and helpful. We travel with service dog and it is not a good location if you have to take your baby out frequently (green space was hard to find) We were in ADA room, due to service dog and close to elevators but bed was very hard and low to ground. Good location and easy to get around. We would stay there again.

Cool, Historic Hotel
Very nice, historic hotel. Staff was SO friendly and helpful. The bed was comfy.
Only 1 downside. It took a really long time to get hot water. I hated wasting water.

Very well rested
I enjoyed my stay here at the Curio. It appears to be a historical hotel with character. The preservation of the hotel speaks volumes. There are a few things that could benefit the rooms. Sofa was a little worn. A fridge and small microwave would be great. I assume that is not the vibe the hotel will ever see as an option, but in these days and times, something to consider. The beds were comfortable, the water pressure in the shower is fantastic, and the rooms were clean enough, not a deal breaker.. I would consider staying again.

My mom and I loved our stay here! The staff was very friendly and my mom really appreciated them giving us medicine when I got sick during our stay. We loved how centrally located the hotel was! We easily parked in a parking garage one block up from the hotel and didn’t have to get our car out the entire stay. We could walk to our concert, to the free street car, and many restaurants. We will definitely be back to KC and we will stay here again for sure!

This is the 5th time I've stayed at Hotel Phillips en route between St. Louis and Aspen. I love the convenience, super cool old Art Deco building right in the Power & Light District with access to tons of dining options. I will always stop when I drive through the few times a year. Thank you for always taking such good care of me!
