Property Description |
|
An Art Deco masterpiece with a 70-year tradition of hospitality is brand-new again, after a $20 million restoration project recreated Kansas City's historic Hotel Phillips as a luxury boutique hotel for the 21st century. Hotel Phillips reopened in October 2001, bringing the highest standards of quality and amenities to its prestigious location at the heart of downtown Kansas City's convention district. Featuring elegant, imaginative restaurants and 217 cozy rooms and suites, Hotel Phillips offers both a refuge and a touch of Marcus Magic for today's business traveler.
From the wonderful walnut paneling and polished marble floors to the personalized, high-touch service, everything about Hotel Phillips combines to provide an upscale, luxurious guest experience, said Bill Otto, President of Marcus Hotels and Resorts. Beautiful molding, brass work and ornamental dressing is everywhere. That's what gives it special character. In addition to restoring the hotel's unique and historical architectural elements, we believe we have created Downtown's finest upscale, boutique hotel providing personalized service to individual business and leisure travelers, as well as small groups.
Hotel Phillips, which first opened in 1931 and is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places as a classic of Art Deco architecture, is Kansas City's only member of Preferred Hotels & Resorts Worldwide. Each Preferred hotel follows Preferred's Standards of Excellence, ensuring that guests will enjoy impeccable service and luxurious lodging for every visit. Preferred hotels must offer guest services above and beyond expectations, extraordinary interior and exterior design, exceptional guestroom and public area amenities, knowledgeable and responsive on-site management and staff, and imaginative cuisine. Qualifying for membership in Preferred Hotels & Resorts creates a wonderful benchmark for us, said General Manager Tom Pratt.
Unique even in a city famous for food, Hotel Phillips' select restaurants combine contemporary style and Midwestern flavor. Platters, a visual feast of ornate marble and walnut, offers a menu that changes daily with an elegant twist: In Kansas City's first example of the hottest new concept in fine dining, meals are served family-style at tableside from, yes, platters. Meanwhile, the dining and drinking establishment called 12 Baltimore for its location at 12th & Baltimore is the place to see and be seen, with Downtown's best selection of cold martinis, cool people and hot appetizers.
From boxed cotton linen to leather place settings with bottled water, Hotel Phillips sets meetings from six to 110 guests, using 5,600 square feet of meeting and conference space. The Crystal Ballroom and Lobby Terrace create an atmosphere of exquisite taste and style. Our guests will dine in unusual style, from French or Russian service to tableside preparation in the banquet space, notes Chris Shaffer, Director of Food & Beverage.
The professional staff of Hotel Phillips lives by the motto, Details. Covered. It is Marcus Hotels and Resorts' attention to detail which created this remarkable landmark for Kansas City, where the best of the old is new again. |
