Unwind in Historic Downtown

What makes it fun

The Hotel Indigo Kansas City Downtown is a beautiful reminder of the city's rich history. Housed in the renovated Brookfield Building, which was originally built in the 1930s and served as a ticket office for various train stations, the hotel pays tribute to the rail lines that put Kansas City on the map. Our 118 guest rooms are styled with travel-themed touches—including postcard and postmark designs—and the lobby features a train mural. You can start your day with a cup of locally-brewed Parisi coffee before heading out to explore all that Kansas City has to offer, just steps from the hotel.

My only complaint is a squeaky shower head

I do my travels all over the country, but never have I ever felt so connected to nature. Truly, this is nothing compared to the great outdoors of the Catskills, the adorandaks, the portchupine moutaintains, or even the great yellow stome. When I arrived to my dwellings that Monsure prepared, for my log cabin have I discovered that my dormitory was truly of the earthly connected and beautiful landscape. The crinkle cut bath-tissues, were a nice touch. Although, I would’ve preferred it bugs bunny style. They even had a viewing platform to see the wild roaming wildabeasts! Anyways, when I set out for my hunt, I found some truly peculiar sights. For one, I was not prepared in the slightest to see the most rare, and truly once in a lifetime, Black Ground Squirrel. I also encountered the typical grey and brown squirrel as well. It was nice to see that all of the fauna was grass-fed and well kept and in high spirits! Yet, perhaps, my most peculiar encounter was with the wild Kansas flying pigeon. He was thought to be done. But, in fact, he was good! He re-inflated, and flew away. But, just make sure you steer clear of Samantha on the elevators. She keeps riding them late into the night and warns people of eating at the mountain lodge. I think she croaked of chocking on a tomato. Just ignore her. She’ll go away.

Great hotel, great rooms, night staff ok, but efficient. Location if great except you’re on a busy road- lots of noisy night traffic

I originally wrote a bad review due to an issue with the reservation, but I have to say that Abigail at the front desk went above and beyond honestly to make the issue a non issue. She stopped by the room, offered a very fair resolution, and then to our surprise, also gave us some credits for breakfast just to seal the deal with a positive outcome. Wow, I’m honestly blown away by the way she jumped to action and just made it her mission to make sure our experience was good. You turned a frustration into a truly great experience.

This place sucks. First of all, the keycards almost never work. They fail every other time and we have to go get ones constantly. Second, the shower has no barrier between the shower and the bathroom, leaving a puddle of a square meter of water on the floor. Not the bathroom floor, the room floor. It soaked all of our clothes. It’s shit.

This hotel is FABULOUS!! My bestie and I had an overnight stay from an Sat-Sun and it was an amazing experience! 11/10 recommend! The rooms were clean, organized, and so cute! The walk-ability was perfect, my friend and I walked to the River Market, Power and Light district, and so much more. Lastly, a very special shoutout to Alex who was an absolute delight! He checked us in and has the most welcoming energy! He checked in on us and gave us advice for how to stay safe in the city! thank you all so much for the amazing weekend! if you’re looking for a place to stay this is an excellent choice!

You know, typically, I feel like I'm paying too much for a hotel room. I know I'm cheap. This is the first time that I really felt like I owed them money! I love the aesthetic of this place! Built in the revitalized Brookfield Building, a hub of travel for most of the 20th Century, they adopted a travel-based theme with train and airline elements present on every floor. The magic is, that it's all so thoughtfully done; it's somehow ubiquitous but not overwhelming. The color scheme, the classic decor, and the appointments all cooperate the transport you to the 1950s every time you return home. Amazing. Like the building itself, the area is beautiful and historic and walking distance to the legendary Power & Light District. The restaurant downstairs, Dott Boss, looked and felt like a place Al Capone would have dinner on friday night after a hard week of murder and tax evasion. The food and craft cocktails were also on point. The experience was completed once again by an exuberant and competent staff that were both excited and efficient. I was excited to eat nothing but local barbecue while in town but I still found myself at Dott Boss, twice. Next, the staff, perfect, across the board. I'm a night owl, so I get the pleasure of interacting with all the shifts, and they all provided exemplary service with the ability to read the guest (a rare skill these days). Two interactions stand out; first, I received a call soon after check-in to ensure that everything with my room was good. I can't remember the last time that happened. Second, I called to ask where the ice machine was, and the person on the phone immediately addressed me by my name and then gave me specific directions from my room. It was roughly 10 feet from my door. The incredible thing was, he did this without making me feel stupid. That’s like a customer service triple lutz. Good on’ya Bruh. Amenities? All you need! Gorgeous conference rooms, a fully equipped gym, water bottle filling station, ice machines, and probably a lot more that I don’t know or care about. All in all, this place is well worth your time and money. Have fun.

I have stayed here multiple times. While the hotel and rooms and location are excellent, they are still outshined by the incredible staff who are helpful, courteous and friendly. Jayson helped me with an error I made in my reservation and made the process incredibly easy.

We ate at the restaurant inside the hotel, Dott Boss, and got to see the hotel's lobby. It's very cool and chic. We didn't buy a room, but I plan to soon because just being in the lobby was a fun experience.

Very unique and nice place to stay. The rooms are decorated well, the staff was friendly and provided great service. Noise level was low and the restaurant downstairs, while not free, was amazing. Would recommend for anyone staying in downtown!

This place is amazing! It's very pretty. Clean, well-managed. They allowed me and family to bring our dog too, which was quite surprising. A little gripe being so near to Main and Truman, resulting in some dense traffic, but otherwise, this is great! I definitely would like to stay here again.

I stay here regularly as I drove from the west coast to the east coast often. My favorite thing about this location is how nice the front desk is when I bring my cat in it’s little backpack. They consistently upgrade me and provide top notch service and amenities. I know I write a lot of reviews for Hotel Indigo locations, but it’s because I don’t want to stay anywhere else. I will go out of my way if necessary to ensure I’m close to this hotel brand. Why pay 10x the price somewhere else for lesser service?

We stayed here for a dance competition at the Music Hall. It was walking distance- a huge plus. ALL the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly starting with the valet (Francisco) who was so helpful in coordinating out check out/car. The desk (Haley, Ali, and a woman with brown hair and very light green/blue eyes) were so sweet and friendly and asked my daughter how dance went and wished her luck on our way out! The rooms are stylish and SO CLEAN. The bed was comfy and the room didn't fluctuate hot/cold through the night like some hotels do. This will be our Music Hall hotel from now on!

I don’t want to give this five stars, because now everyone will know how good this hotel is and then demand will go up and it will be booked up for my next stay. Hotel Indigo has never disappointed me and I will back to KC. I only have good things to say about the hotel and staff. The restaurant on site is solid. Easy walk to shuttle stops. Parking concierges were quick. Thank you Hotel Indigo staff for a clean, comfortable, and courteous stay.
