I had a king suite overlooking the Plaza. Absolutely gorgeous and the best and friendliest service anywhere!! Love the doormen, wait staff in restaurant, front desk. More

We stayed in a presidential suite for one night for our anniversary. The room was very nice and clean. Separate bedroom, bath, huge tub with tv, and living area with table. Located right along country club plaza. Staff was very friendly with good service. Free valet parking. We thought this hotel was much better in quality and value than the... More

If you're visiting the Country Club Plaza shopping district this is one of the best locations to stay. This is my first time back in several years and they have definitely made many renovations. It's always been a charming hotel but the room updates have been excellent. We stayed in a suite that had ample space in the living and... More

We have been coming to the Raphael for about 15 years. It’s the boutique hotel standard against which I measure all other hotels. We were there on a weekend in January because we had a Marriott coupon we needed to use before it expired. Due to the cold weather, we hung out in Chaz quite a bit – jazz on... More

The Raphael is our favorite place to stay in KC. What has started out to be one night stays turned into 2 and 3 day stays. The Chaz is a great place to eat, drink, and be intertained. First class old grand hotel charm, but totally up to date in technology and facility. The people are what truly makes it... More

The lights on the Country Club Plaza are famous, but not all hotels will guarentee you a view. The Raphael Hotel is a beautiful restored hotel with a wonderful staff and they will help you with the type of room and view you wish. We go there for our December anniversary and we have been married for over 40 years!... More

The service at the Raphael was impeccable-- from the valet to the front desk to room service, they were all friendly, professional and clearly recognized us each time we came and went from the hotel. The room was on the small side, but perfectly clean and comfortable. The hotel itself is understated and beautiful. Location was great. Highly recommend. More

Midpoint between our home (SGF) & our son's family in Omaha, we were spoiled by the understated luxury of The Raphael, only exceeded by the quality of their staff. What a marvelous way to spend a weekend with family. More
