The Embassy Suites Kansas City - Plaza is within walking distance of the Country Club Plaza and the historic Westport area, though some guests appreciate getting a lift to these places in the hotel's complimentary shuttle, which has a two-mile radius. Families and kids especially enjoy the bi-level pool, which has separate shallow and deep areas.

The hotel is older, and guests generally agree that the rooms are not aging gracefully. Dated furnishings and deccr, an "old" or "musty" smell, and assorted maintenance issues related to the age of the bathroom fixtures, air-conditioning, and furniture are often reported.

Though the complimentary breakfast has received many positive reviews, the general opinion seems to be that the space is not large enough to accommodate the crowds. Guests who arrive after 8:00 am report a "feeding frenzy" atmosphere, with stiff competition for the available tables and overwhelmed staff.

Several guests discovered some room for improvement in housekeeping; the windows, carpets, and bathrooms are among the top issues. Some guests were disappointed to find that their room was not made up every day of their stay.
