|
| Recommended Restaurants: |
| Hereford House on Main Street, just North of the hotel. Also, the Country Club Plaza is only 5 minutes (2 miles) away, and that area has several. I would recommend Houston's, Capital Grille, and McCormik's and Schmik's seafood. |
|
|
| Recommended Things to Do: |
| Shopped at the nearby Plaza, and Crown Center, toured the liberty memorial (only WW1 memorial in the U.S.), and Union Station, all are extremely close. |
|
|
| How they liked the room: |
|
The room was spacious, and suprisingly upscale for a Fairfield Inn. It looks and feels more like a Courtyard. Rooms and public spaces were clean, and the indoor pool, hot tub, and fitness facility was welcomed. Complimentary WIRELESS Hi-speed internet was great too.
|
|
|
| Public Transportation: |
|
There was a bus stop out front, and plenty of taxis

I found the best rate on Marriott.com. Marriott's best rate guarantee says that you can't find a cheaper rate anywhere else for their hotels, and they appear to be correct

| Would they stay here again? |

Absolutely, service was great, and I appreciated the convenient location to all KC attractions. The hotel is located in historic Union Hill, and I read an article on it, the historic neighborhood is being transformed into the lively community it once was. It's an all brick hotel, which matches the historic Union Hill's charm.

| Comments: |
| If you're going to the Country Club Plaza, I recommend staying at this hotel, saving at least $30 on the room, and driving 2 miles. |
