I've stayed here twice on my journey back and forth from Ohio to Colorado and enjoyed it each time. It's such a great value for the amenities: Pet-friendly, free hot breakfast, pool... It felt like a safe area and the staff was friendly and helpful.

Unfortunately this was not a pleasure trip. The hotel was very accommodating while I went back and forth to KU Med Center and my hotel room to change or sleep. My friend had been in ICU and had two surgeries during the week I stayed. I appreciate that the staff was friendly.

Old and stink and the air didnt work

We always stay here when shopping and visiting Kansas City....it's def our go to, but unfortunately this time we had no working hot tub and NO a/c (had switched central system to heat). Our room got up to 78-79 degrees but front desk did offer a box fan. Otherwise breakfast is delicious, comfy rooms, small bathroom, but overall a decent place for the budget.

Friendly staff, nice breakfast, clean room. Not great water pressure..the room was very very warm but thankfully the window was able to open so we could let some cool air in. Overall, a nice stay :)

Was supposed to stay at the hotel for 3 nights. I canceled 1 night before I got there due to a family event I couldn’t miss but I canceled my second night after my first nights stay because of how terrible it was. I checked in about 12:30am and was exhausted, otherwise, I would not have stayed. I got into my room and it was 80 degrees and humid. They offered a box fan stating that all the AC had been turned off “for the season”, this was mid/end October and still hitting 80+ degrees during the day. I slept with the window open and fan running full bore trying to cool it down. It did finally drop to about 74 degrees but then it was very muggy and my sheets were damp from having the window open. Bed was also uncomfortable and bathroom was very small. I barely slept that night.

I have stayed at the Hotel Lotus Merriam many times when I'm in southwestern KC. It is an older hotel, so yes the fixtures are older, but everything is clean. I've never had a dirty room, no mildew on the bathroom tile, and I've never seen a bug. It's not super noisy and the beds are comfortable to me. The workout room is clean and has just enough of what you need. This is the first time I've brought my family and we enjoyed the breakfast and pool. The location is great. It's right off I-35 and there are many food options nearby. I will continue to stay here in the future when I'm on this side of the city.

We stayed there for the hot tub. Hot tub was getting rebuilt when we showed up. Nothing was posted on line. Hotel only had heat and no ac. Was 80 degrees in our room
1.0
Heat was in the middle of being switched, so it was still cold. Chose this hotel for the hot tub only to find out the day of check in it’d been broken for a while. Had to get out own towels replenished. Pool was not warm.

Another comfortable stay at the Lotus. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast is top notch. Room was clean and comfortable.
2.5
It was mostly great. The pool was nice and warm. The room was great, except for the room temperature control. We couldn't warm it past 70 degrees. Breakfast was excellent! I think the overall value was good.

Employees were polite & efficient. Building was clean, well kept. Our room was clean & comfortable. Great lighting in the parking lot.

They don’t have heat/air temp control in your own room They said it’s run on same temp for every room. The air conditioner was on and no way to turn it off. The gave me an electric heater for the room which helped

Extremely friendly and helpful front desk personnel. Great breakfast buffet with lots of choices. This is my 3rd stay here abd have 2 more already booked for next year.

Hotel is in a very convenient spot, easy to get to multiple "tourist"y spots and there are tons of food and shopping options a short drive away. Hotel itself was clean, quiet, and felt safe. Parking lot was lit and had plenty of spots. Any staff we encountered was friendly. The lobby smelled good haha. I'd stay here again without a second thought.
2.5
The attendent at the desk when we checked in was very polite and professional. The room was so spacious and clean it made the stay so relaxing. The location of the hotel is close to highway entrance but still within driving distance to some really great eats.
2.5
This is the nicest smelling place? A lot of hotels advertise smoke-free but smell smoky and musty. Not this place. Everything was very clean. Breakfast was plentiful and good.
I will be back in the near future.

This is a very nice Hotel and in a nice location. The only problem I had was the air conditioning didn’t work in the first two rooms they tried to put me in. The third room air conditioner worked great.
2.0
the hotel was nice. When arrived I had paid for my reservation up front and when I checked in the made me pay a 50.00 deposit after I had already pay for the room. The breakfast was ok my son got a milk for his cereal and when he opened it he told me it tasted funny. When examined it it was curled and experied.the pool was nice didn't get to check out the hot tub due to it being under maintenance during my stay. For one night it was ok.

Close to IKEA and was easy for us to get to the Starlight Theater.
2.0
The staff was very friendly. The hotel is dated and needs a makeover. Disappointed that the hot tub was not working and that they are removing it. Beds were very comfortable, but the bathroom was very small. Impressive amount of channels available including local sports channels. Breakfast was better than expected. Great value for a weekend stay.

Hot tub was broken, toilet clogged and never got fixed. Luckily we had a suite with 2 bathrooms. Breakfast was late being served which threw our schedule off a little.
Pool was nice and the beds were comfortable. I liked the spaciousness of the suite

This used to be a Drury Inn which we stay in often. We have stayed here several times when visiting our daughter at UMKC. It's very clean, great beds, friendly staff, good breakfast, good safe area.
4.0
Refrigerator did not work properly. Needed to be defrosted. Told front desk. Breakfast was not replenished so if you don’t get there by 8:00 be prepared for limited options. Once breakfast is over you can’t even get water to refill your own bottles.
Stay was ok but would probably opt for another place next time in the area.
3.0
Room is very dark. Bathroom is small. Vanity is open in the room. Location is good for easy access to Plaza and Downtown areas.

Very nice facility, clean property , friendly and affordable! Full breakfast every morning.
4.0
Budget place. Outdated (dark wood/browns). One wall
In the room looked like bricks. It was very clean, however. The breakfast was good-standard pancake maker, liquid eggs, cereals, sausage patties, etc…BUT the beds were so hard and so were the pillows! The toilets barely flushed. The hot tub was closed for repairs. They don’t have USB ports so bring your block! The staff were all very kind and helpful though.
4.0
Clean, friendly
5.0
Very clean and nice. It had a rating of 3 stars but I would give it 4. The only reason I wouldn’t give it 5 is because the furnishings are showing their age. One of the cleanest 3 star Hotels I’ve ever stayed in.
2.0
Check-in was easy and the stay was super nice. Anything you needed they provided. The only drawback was the water pressure. Overall this was a safe, quiet and clean hotel. Definitely close to all my family and worth the price.
