Hotels in KC
 

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

Now that they've completed the renovation on the Sheraton across the street, it is leaps and bounds better than the reviews indicate. Trust me. Plus, you won't have to pay for parking.

Sounds like a good option, I couldn't find it listed on hotels.com
However I found their website http://www.starwoodhotels.com/sherat...ropertyID=3045 and it looks like there are rooms available for that time.

you don't know the hotel name till after you book?

I have stayed at the hotel across the street from Arrowhead ( think it's a Mariott) and walked to the games. Great view of Arrowhead from my room both years!

There is an awesome DaysInn in Olathe right off I-35 where you are walking distance to a mattress store and a used car lot and have a clear view of the exit ramp. Nice.

thanks man. i'll look into it

Damn, the Adams Mark is now a Sheraton and it looks nice. Nice addition of the indoor water park. There really isn't any places to eat around there aside from Shoneys/Dennys and Taco Bell. There is a good dive bar burger shop north of that hotel but I can't remember the name.

119th and Strang line doesnt exactly meet the " within walking distance" guidelines .....

It does for Rich Scanlon.

What's your definition of cheap?

Well I'm really only gonna be at the hotel, for a little bit the evening before the game, and to sleep. So I'm looking for something maybe $150 and below. I couldn't really find anything within walking distance to arrowhead on hotels.com..maybe i'm doing something wrong? I have stayed at the drury inn for one chiefs game and that was nice walking to the game, I usually stay in the lot across from dennys, it costs like $10 and isn't bad getting out after the game.

Yea, but there is a Hooters there, that he could watch the game from.
