During your Kansas City vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Arabia Steamboat Museum
This cargo steamboat, laden with 220 tons of merchandise destined for settlers out west, sank in the Missouri River in 1856, where it remained preserved in cold mud until it was excavated in the 1980s. A virtual time capsule of the 1850s and one of the best collections of pre-Civil War artifacts in the world, the museum provides a fascinating look at frontier life, with displays of the steamboat's cargo, from china and hardware to jewelry and leather boots (900 shoes and boots alone are on display). Tours begin with a film of the excavation and restoration of parts of the boat (which are now on display); plan on 1 1/2 hours here.
Thomas Hart Benton Home
From 1939 until he died in his studio in 1975, this 1903, late-Victorian limestone house served as home and studio of Missouri's most renowned 20th-century artist. The house and studio are just as Benton left them, with many personal belongings like clothing, furniture, paints and brushes, and 13 original works, which you can see in about half an hour.
Toy and Miniature Museum
Occupying a 1911 mansion, this museum houses an extensive collection of antique dolls, more than 100 furnished dollhouses, marbles, and toys ranging from model trains to games, as well as perfect scale miniatures of houses, rooms, and furniture. The miniatures are fully functional -- scissors cut, clocks run, and musical instruments can be played, making it a fascinating experience for adults and kids alike. You can easily spend a fascinating hour or more here.
Hotel Phillips
Built in 1931 and exalting the Art Deco style (it's listed on the National Register of Historic Places), this classic downtown boutique hotel has been updated but retains its original woodwork, marble, lighting, and fixtures -- including an 11-foot-tall gilded goddess overlooking the lobby. Rooms rise above the ordinary with a mix of contemporary furnishings and vintage touches such as plaster molding on the ceilings. If you opt for a standard room, request a brighter, corner room. The hotel is geared toward business travelers, but its historic charm and downtown location make it a good bet for couples as well.
Westin Crown Center
Connected to the Crown Center with its many shops and restaurants and via walkway to Union Station with its Science City, the Westin incorporates a limestone bluff with a rock garden and 60-foot waterfall in its multilevel lobby. Rooms are endowed with all the comforts, including the Westin's trademark Heavenly Beds (with 250-count sheets and down comforters), tiny balconies, and, on the north side, great views of downtown. The hotel's central location, facilities that include a jogging track and basketball court, and special Heavenly Dog Beds complete with dog dishes, make this a popular choice for families, dog owners -- and conventions.
Embassy Suites
Conveniently located between Westport and Country Club Plaza, this all-suite hotel imitates Country Club Plaza's Spanish architecture with a dramatic, 12-story courtyard atrium. The two-room suites, complete with kitchenette and video games, are a good bet for both families and business travelers. Other pluses include free cooked-to-order breakfasts, a nightly complimentary cocktail hour, laundry facilities, and a free daily shuttle service within a 2-mile radius of the hotel.
