I have stayed at the Holiday many times when traveling for work. The staff is always helpful, professional, and friendly. The hotel and rooms are always very clean. The breakfast never misses a beat. There are always many choices complete with the delicious cinnamon rolls. My only negative feedback is the location. The one-way streets may have you doing around in circles. Also the parking has increased to $25 per day, and the parking lot is rather small. Overall, it is still one of the best downtown hotels in downtown KCMO.
