Expert reviews

Fodors review:

“The Westin overlooks the city’s most popular landmark, the Tyler Davidson Fountain on Fountain Square. The building, designed in the classic Renaissance style, was once the Albee Theater. Shoppers will appreciate that it’s just a short stroll away from Tower Place mall at Carew Tower.”

Great location in the heart of the city; get food elsewhere

Incredible location, walking distance from the river and many other sights and restaurants. Friendly staff.

Terrible food that did not match the in-room dining breakfast menu, basically it is all pre-made, stale airport cafe style food.

Great room, horrible parking garage option for trucks

Room was nice. Bed was comfy. View was good.

We have a truck and the valet had my husband park his own stating they don’t park trucks anymore but had us go to the garage to park it. It was a very very tight winging pathway down, once started, no way to reverse it!!! His truck barely fit, all tires rubbed, rims got scratched! I see why they aren’t allowed to do it BUT warning the customer why would be nice!!! Instead of sending us that way with no way to reverse it! Now we spend $350 getting rims repaired! We have stayed at the Westin a lot because they always parked our vehicles. We didn’t know any different. But unfortunately, my husband said we will never stay there again because of the parking.

Great stay, but the elevator

Everything was within walking distance to everywhere we wanted to be. The hotel was very nice and clean.

The elevator situation around 9-11 am was not a fun experience. I believe that is around check out time. I think they should allow elevators to go to pick up people instead of being in designated stops... like A B C D ... most times, by the time it got to our floor, the elevator was full.

The elevator system was terrible. We spent way too much time waiting on elevators. No room service after 11pm. For $450 per night we should be able to order food 24/7 will not stay here again. We will go to the Hyatt or Hilton down the street.

Overall nice stay & front desk very customer-friendly.

The view was great! Overlooked fountain square. Room was clean & comfortable.

No parking nor valet available as both were full & had to walk with bags to a near by garage several blocks away. Weird elevator keys.

Zak is awesome!

I like that they were willing to accommodate my last minute needs. They were there to answer all my questions and concerns about my stay

I didn't like that at first... I felt because I used a third party I got a second hand room. However, after speaking to the staff I got superior service.

Minus the elevators not working, it was a great stay! Good room, great service.

Desk help was very nice. They did not have our Booking.com reservation so it took almost 30 minutes to verify our reservation and they were very nice in that process.

The elevators were either not working or reserved for the KC Chiefs so we had to haul our luggage up 5 flights of stairs to the 7th floor. That was ROUGH! And, it was a wild goose chase to even find the stairs!
