It looked like a luxury spa and everything was so clean. The beds were comfortable with great pillows and the softest robe I've ever put on. I wanted to buy one. Nice coffee and bar - great restaurant options too. Walking distance to many things and street cars were available for free to explore. Ate at the hotel multiple times for a conference and was impressed with their food. Amazing hosting abilities for the conference. Would love to come back!

But hey... we got the top floor and could see the Ferris wheel and directly into other spaces of the hotel. The bathroom- supposedly luxury towels but were extremely frayed and thin. The amenities were fine but not special. The toilet is separated by a frosted 1/4 wall... but yet provided no privacy. It did serve to hide the look of the toilet though if that was merely a design decision rather than customer experience choice. The lighting was subpar. The internet was non existent and tv.. not even the option to stream your own Netflix. Which we needed because there was nothing else to do in the hotel (besides drink at the bar or swim with the rowdy kids on the terrace level ... or whatever that was). I woke up so tired after sleeping in the hot room (turned temp down as far as it would go, and had to kick off all covers) Just awful. When going to bed by 9pm and waking at 7am I should've felt rested and renewed. It was absolutely not my experience, nor my daughters. Overall, it's not at all the worst place... but definitely not near the top of nicest either.

If you're looking for a hotel that won't add stress to your wedding weekend, look elsewhere. We…read morebooked Hotel KC because our friend's wedding was hosted there, and since we were driving up from Texas, we wanted to make things easier by staying at the venue. My boyfriend was one of the groomsmen, so his weekend was already packed. We checked into the hotel on Friday so we could help the bride and groom if needed. When we got to our room, I noticed the door didn't close all the way. I'm usually pretty cautious about hotels and Airbnbs, so I asked the front desk to fix it right away. My boyfriend had to leave for the rehearsal shortly after dropping off our luggage. A maintenance worker came quickly, but after 45 minutes, he removed the metal latch plate on the doorframe so the door would shut. I told him that didn't seem right and completely defeated the purpose of the lock, but he didn't speak English and was using Google Translate. He said it was a temporary fix and that the front desk would assist us later. The door did close, but it felt like anyone could easily break in. Since we had a busy schedule, we left for the rehearsal dinner around 6. After dinner, we returned and asked the front desk whether the door would be properly fixed that night or if we could switch rooms. The front desk agent said they had multiple weddings that weekend, so all rooms were booked and nothing was available. She also said, "Our hotel is very safe, nothing happens." That's not something you want to hear as a guest. If I'm paying for a room, I expect to feel safe, not wonder if I'll be the first to experience a problem, especially since I had multiple expensive camera gear with me. We insisted on having the door fixed before bed, so they sent an "engineer" upstairs. When we explained the issue, he told my boyfriend that the metal piece on the doorframe was just for "aesthetics." At that point, my boyfriend was pissed. He grabbed the room key and a plastic spoon, propped the door open in front of the engineer, and demonstrated the issue. The engineer ended up calling two more maintenance workers and told us to leave for our event while they worked on it. We had to go downstairs for a late-night meet-and-greet, so they stayed to fix the door... again. When we came back around 11:30 PM, someone was still working on it. They reinstalled the metal plate and told me to slam the door hard for it to close. We had to do it multiple times, at midnight, while our neighbors were sleeping. He said it was the best they could do since no other rooms were available. We were exhausted and just went to bed. Saturday morning, the day of the wedding, my boyfriend left at 8 AM for suit fitting and to get ready with the groom. He asked me to check with the front desk, and they said we could switch rooms, but not until around 3 PM (normal check-in time). I reminded them that the wedding would already be happening then, and they apologized for the inconvenience. They sent yet another maintenance worker around 9 AM, this time with a drill, loudly working on the door and frame. I couldn't stay in the room with that noise (video), so I ended up spending time in the groom's suite. It was frustrating to pay for a hotel and barely have any time to relax in the room. There were constantly maintenance workers coming in and out, and I never felt safe being there alone. They finally moved us to a new room at 1 PM, right in the middle of the bridal party photos around the hotel. I couldn't carry all our luggage myself, so my boyfriend had to help me while wearing his groomsman suit. After everything, the hotel never apologized for the inconvenience or offered any kind of compensation. Overall, I'm extremely disappointed with their service. If this had been my wedding weekend, I would not have been this nice..

The day of the wedding we were able to all get ready together, have breakfast, and take some photos in the house. Breakfast was delicious and included gluten free options.

The house itself is a beautiful older home that's been so nicely updated and decorated. The house has so much character! I'd highly recommend Halcyon to anyone stopping in Lawrence. The house is located near Mass Street, and there's plenty of street parking available.

Our room had a large and comfortable bed, a jacuzzi tub, a keurig in the room, and more. The rooms and personal bathrooms are immaculate and clean. This boutique hotel is walking distance from the Country Club Plaza and close to several brunch spots and coffee shops.

Make sure to hang out in the stunning dining room, the patio room, and the beautiful living space to enjoy the full stay. The reservation and check-in process is seamless. Whether you are in town looking for a place to stay, or a current resident wanting a staycation, the Southmoreland on the Plaza should be at the top of your search list!

I did appreciate that they comped a meal for everyone staying here through that, even though a fire alarm was totally out of their control. The rooms have plenty of character, and the valets work really hard here. They bring your car up super fast. The staff at the restaurant is super friendly, and they're good with kids too. It is important to note that the bar area comes to life on weekend nights (you have to walk by it to get to your room), but kids need to see what adults are like after the sun goes down at some point in their lives. But there is an art display on the ground floor of the hotel, so if your kids cannot resist touching something like that, this might not be the place for you. If you're visiting KC, you'd be lucky to stay at the Crossroads.

The bed was comfortable, decor was warm and inviting, and the large jacuzzi tub was very relaxing and spacious. Breakfast in the morning was homemade french toast and we enjoyed it on the sunny indoor porch complete with koi pond. We wished we could have stayed longer than one night but definitely have a new favorite in terms of local places to stay. For the price and hospitality I would recommend staying here even if you live nearby like we did and just want to get away. If you're in the area visiting Lawrence or Kansas City this isn't far from either cities and is worth the drive. You can't find hospitality like this at a hotel, even if it's closer to whatever you're in the area for. Support this wonderful locally owned business!

We had never heard of this branch of Best Western before, so we decided to take the risk after the employee we spoke with on the phone was super friendly and helpful--and I'm SO glad we did! When we arrived, Imani was at the front desk and was actually the same person we had spoken with over the phone. She was extremely pleasant, welcoming, and helpful from the second we walked in. She was able to get us checked into our room early and also helped us figure out the parking situation. The parking lot is $30/night and has a gated entry, which was nice for the added security. The ambiance of this hotel is GREAT! It is super aesthetic, modern, and clean. Imani mentioned that they've only been open for about a month or so, and you can definitely tell everything is fresh and well maintained. The bar manager (I believe that was his position) was equally as friendly and helpful, which really added to the overall experience. For having to find a hotel so last minute, this ended up being such a pleasant surprise. The customer service alone made a huge difference, especially after the issues we had experienced beforehand. I would 110% stay here again and definitely recommend it!
