I travel a lot both for work and leisure. This hotel is the best hotel I have stayed at in a decade. You can tell it's a hidden gem because all the flight attendant/pilots stay here. I'm sure through personal experience and word of mouth this place has been touted as the best in Wichita for that traveling community. And I'm here to echo that sentiment.When we arrived, my partner and I first commented on how gorgeous the lobby was. The front desk was friendly, polite and without a reservation gave us a room with a phenomenal view of the river. They informed us about the complimentary breakfast (which many hotels offer), but also the free dinner. And also 3 free alcoholic beverages for EACH of us. They did say we had to pay for parking, but who cares? It's $12. I happily paid that for it's downtown location which made it so convenient to not only be by the river, but also be close to other restaurants/bars/coffee shops/concert halls, which we enjoyed the next day. But with so many amenities (nice 24 hour gym, heated indoor pool and hot tub) and the promise of a free dinner and drinks we stayed in for the night. The dinner was great! Costello was working the buffet and bar and was so high energy, he sang opera to our table. And the morning breakfast buffet was delicious, as well with a great selection. After all of this, I can't believe the low price I spent on such a great experience, which was comparable to what one would spend at a shabby big chain hotel.This place is a 10.
