Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The concierge lounge provided excellent service from Craig with quick drinks and food, but the room size, particularly the bathroom, and the towels were on the smaller side. The view of the Plaza was a nice touch, though.

I must give credit to Craig at the concierge lounge for his exceptional service with drinks and food. The room size, especially the bathroom, was smaller than expected, and even the towels were on the petite side. On the bright side, the view of the Plaza was lovely.

The hotel's location was terrific, especially during the scorching hot weather last weekend. Bordering the Plaza, it provided a welcome respite and convenience for exploring the area on foot. It was a great place to be during both spring and summer seasons.

The hotel is located in a great spot, just a block away from the Plaza, offering a fantastic view from the room. The staff was friendly, but service felt somewhat distracted. The dining options were a bit pricey, and the breakfast selection was limited. The overall experience was pleasant.

The dining experience was above expectation for a corporate buffet, but some items like the $11 oatmeal felt overpriced.

My stay at the Country Club Plaza in Kansas City was a mixed bag. The rooms were extremely dusty, and although I had booked a room with two queen beds, there was a mix-up with the sheet on the King bed in the bedroom. On the bright side, the service from the personnel was very helpful and accommodating, especially the bell staff and front desk staff. The location of the hotel was terrific, offering a welcome respite from the scorching 100+ degree weather we had last weekend in Country Club Plaza. However, the dining experience exceeded my expectations with diverse and lovely options, including hot scrambled eggs and smoked salmon in the hotel restaurant.
