Football Hotels in KC - Page 3

Hello, I'm planning on going to the chiefs vs cowboys game on 10/11/09. I was wondering what you guys recommended for hotels. The criteria I want, is that it's close to the stadium, it's cheap, and decent. It would be nice if it was in walking distance, however I can't find any rooms for the drury inn or holiday inn on that date, and was hoping to avoid the parking fee. All help appreciated. thanks

$100/night ($150 for a sweet suite) and you get to stay in an historic landmark PLUS you get a gourmet breakfast for free! (salmon and cavier, eggs benedict, Sauteed Lamb with Artichokes, etc etc)

I always try to pimp this place because I want them to stay in business for everytime I visit!

You don't mean THE Savoy Grill, steeped in tradition, a Kansas City landmark nearly sixty years old?

He sure do. And I agree w/ him.

Cool old landmark hotel w/ excellent food & service. Plus it is close to P&L. Excellent choice IMO.

There are three hotels within walking distance, the two you mentioned and the one with the water park that has passed through like 10 different companies in the last 8 years. If you cannot find a room there, then there isn't another hotel within walking distance. So, I would recommend staying in a hotel off of Noland Rd in Independence, as long as it's not the American Inn or the Red Roof Inn. Those are crap. There are a few hotels, right off of 70 and Noland, one of which has been recently renovated, but I have never been inside. 70 WEst takes you straight to the stadiums. Let me just emphasize that these hotels are not exactly the best in the world, but they are not such crap that you couldn't sleep in it for a night. They are the closest ones wtihout staying downtown or in an hourly rate motel off of 40 hwy. Although there's a great strip club up that direction.

The two I'm thinking of are a Super 8 (that's the one recently remodeled) and a Best Western. I think the exact street they are on is Lynn Ct. There is also a Quality Inn and Suites which is not horrible off of Noland as well.

But, if those don't tickle your fancy, you can travel a little farther East on i-70 and stay at some of the newer hotels off of Little Blue Pkwy/Jackson Dr. They are nice...there is a Holiday Inn Express, a Hilton Garden Inn, and some sort of Comfort Inn? I think.

All of those hotels have eating establishments within a mile radius.

Oh and each of them are less then a 10 mile drive to the stadiums.
