KC MO advice

Going to be going to KC and was wondering what are good areas to stay in or avoid. Any advice at all would be appreciated.

Perhaps consider the Plaza zip codes 64112 & 64111 (centrally located and nice shopping/restaurants, etc.)
2nd Casino's (Missouri)
3rd Airport (north edge of metro)

thank you so much I am so looking forward to this trip.

Stay away from 87th and 435. Stay out of Johnson County, KS.

Good places to stay; the Plaza, near Bartle Hall (Power and Light district), and near Westport. Going to North KCMO or the Airport puts you too far away for some people.

thank you so much for the advice it's really appreciated

Airport and Crown Center areas are where I played .... Country Club Plaza is a preferred location for a lot of ladies/gents too.

Mocha is correct that Crown Center and Airport are fine.
Plaza appears to be simply preferred due to abundance of other various shopping and restaurant activities.

hotel prices are high right now...so check that out before you plan to go

have fun if you go!

I should have read this first before I posted. lol Soo many of the hotels are sold out. I am ready to scream!! lol lol

Yep i was gonna go too..but cannot get decent hotel

KC can wait. A business associate told me Saturday that the hotel would not honor the booked rate for the following few days of the trip. Many places have overbooked and are turning away guests that previously reserved at lower than rack room rate. Signs of a recovering economy, I take it.

Conventions/conferences happening or is it just because it's peak time for visitors (not of the hobbying kind lol)?
