We loved the Raphael Hotel for our visit to KC! The room was spacious, clean, and just right for our family of 4. The service was outstanding by the front desk. We also enjoyed appetizers and drinks downstairs at The Chaz, and it was phenomenal. We can’t wait to stay here again when we return to the KC area! Recommended for all who want to be in the Country Club Plaza area.

The hotel, suite, and lounge were very good. The restaurant’s was not as good. Very lengthy time between order and food. About 45 minutes and it wasn’t very busy.

The staff is super nice and attentive! Place is beautiful. Did not make it to the Chaz restaurant but we heard it was fabulous from others. The plaza view from our room was gorgeous, lit up with Christmas lights.

For excellent reasons, I have been a regular guest at the Raphael for years. It always amazes me to be greeted by name upon my arrival. The staff are always courteous and professional. The rooms speak for themselves. Always clean, tastefully decorated, and full of amenities. The historic architecture and the convenient location are why I have always wanted to be a regular guest at the Raphael.

We got the premiere suite. The listing on expedia clearly stated a walk in shower and a jetted tub. The walk in shower is apparently only in some of the suites (ADA accessible)- not my suite. Our jetted tub required me removing the side panel, lying on the floor, and plugging it in. Honestly, the shower was the main reason that I picked this location as opposed to another, so that was disappointing. The situation with the tub should also be remedied. That said, the staff were more than accommodating. John, the manager on duty went above and beyond to make up for the shower, and every staff member we encountered was fantastic. My girlfriend forgot something in the car, the valet retrieved it, and had it brought to our room. I’d definitely go back, but if you’re interested in a particular bathroom configuration, I’d be sure to make that known in advance.

I’m stay in hotels very regularly, but this was one of the best. Great facilities and location, the room was modern and clean, but the staff made it feel like home from home. I certainly won’t stay anywhere else in KC going forward.
