Aida Hotel

Staying at The Aida is quiet, calm, and genuinely comfortable. The atmosphere is relaxed and intimate with rooms that are warm and well considered — great light, comfortable beds, and thoughtful details that make it feel more like staying in a well-loved home than a hotel. Everything about the space encourages you to slow down and enjoy the moment. The Aida is the sort of place that stays with you because of how settled and at ease you feel while you’re there. If you’re looking for a stay in Kansas City that’s peaceful, comfortable, and quietly special, this is it.

My wife and I absolutely adored this hotel. Hidden in the arts district and right across from the Nelson-Atkins Museum. It was very cozy and quiet and perfect for a Valentine’s get away. We were greeted with red and pink balloons, chocolates from a local shop, and they offered champagne in the evening. Every detail of the hotel was carefully thought out and we even booked our next stay for May before we even left town.

We recently celebrated a friend’s birthday with a mini staycation in KC. I couldn’t be more thrilled to have stayed at Aida Hotel! I loved walking the rooms to admire the art, the lighting, the books; honestly everything!! The hotel is truly one of a kind, and I’m glad to have had the opportunity to experience it.

We loved our stay at Aida hotel! The check in process was super simple and didn't require interacting with anyone - we simply filled out an online form and then were provided all the information we needed via email. The room was gorgeous and the bed was super comfortable. Ryan and David even left us a special treat in the room from a local business which was so thoughtful and delicious! I loved the stay and will definitely stay here again during future trips to KC!

The Aida is a gem of a boutique hotel located in the heart of the museum and UMKC district. The digital check in is seamless. The common area is very well appointed and comfy. We booked a suite with a sitting area, but found the common area to be a delightful draw. The hotel was very clean and an amenities closet is available for luggage storage and any extras you may need. Our room (2B) was spacious and had lots of natural light. The bed, a Casper mattress, was super comfy, the sheets high end. Why 4 stars for the room? The WC is tiny and has no ventilation. I’m 5’4 and my knees touched the door when closed. Also, the glass shower offers no privacy from the rest of the room—fine for us, but maybe a bit awkward for more modest guests. Nonetheless, we’d definitely stay there again and would love to see what the other bespoke rooms look like. There is no restaurant on site but coffee and nibbles are available in the hall pantry and there are snacks for purchase in the room. And nearby there is a cafe and just across the street in the Contemporary Art Museum is a gourmet restaurant—Oil and Linen, which we loved. Oh and the free trolly is just two blocks away and will take you through all parts of the city and down to the waterfront.

The Aida is a fabulous boutique hotel! We come to KC to visit our son fairly often and either stay here or the Truitt. The rooms are beautiful and common areas very well decorated and inviting. I have met many staff members and the owners, Ryan and David are warm and friendly hosts. I will only stay at either of Ryan and David’s boutique hotels when in Kansas City! Cheers to many more visits!

If you like a quiet stay, this is the best! It's a very small hotel with no staff desk but they have numbers you can call or text with the owners on the property. Everything is locked with passcodes. They had excellent amenities like a Nespresso machine, Madeline cakes, and a lovely sitting area downstairs. Our room was beautiful and super comfortable. I would certainly stay here again.

We loved staying at the Aida Hotel! Very relaxing and quiet. Great bed and bedding. The decor is beautiful. Very convenient location to the Plaza and downtown KC

Kansas City hotel with first class service! a stunning boutique hotel located in the KC metro area. It is super close the Plaza and Westport making it a great spot for a KC staycation or for friends from out of town. From the moment we arrived it felt like I was in a movie. The outside felt like a castle. The inside felt like home. Gorgeous decor and small touches that you will love. Upon our arrival we were treated to a bottle of wine which was a perfect way to kick off date night. Very quiet rooms (can't hear your neighbors), super soft beds (like I melted into the bed), amazing shower (think waterfall calmness) and a personal touch you can't get from a chain hotel.

My girlfriend and I stayed at The Aida for a mini week vacation in Kansas City. It's in a great location and the hotel is BEAUTIFUL. You can tell that Ryan and David absolutely love what they do because of the detail that goes into the place. Felt safe with our unique digital code lock on our room and a beautiful comfortable room. We look forward to staying here every time we visit KC!

This hotel is excellent and was just what I was looking for on my 2-day business trip. (But this would be great for a weekend spot with my husband as well.) The rooms are unique and beautiful but still comfortable. I appreciate the key code entry without the need for check in/out. The only reason for the 4-star rating instead of 5 is the parking situation. The Kemper lot used for parking for the hotel is a short walk away. I arrived late at night (by myself) with a number of bags and parked on the street (which the email says you can do) so I didn't have to walk far. I woke up the next day and found my car was broken into. If you stay here, park in the lot (there's cameras) and NOT on the street.

If you're looking for a little staycation or have friends in town, I would highly recommend they stay here. There is so much to offer here outside of the traditional hotel. Check-in is easy and parking is offered on the street and at a lot nearby. the hotel is decorated beautifully. rooms are spacious and decorated to match the aesthetic of the hotel. Snacks and drinks are available. Coffee and champagne are available in the lobby. There is a great outside area with a fountain and outdoor seating. Highly recommend.

Amazing, amazing, amazing. This boutique hotel is a gem. We stayed in a beautiful two bedroom suite with an insane bathroom. The shower alone fits 4-6 people, oh my! Great location - central to everything, especially the museums. Tons of street parking. You walk up to this amazing manor (see my pics) and walk into a downstairs with two stunningly decorated sitting rooms. Our suite was on the second floor and was crazy gorgeous. Dramatic black painted walls, black on black design in the bathroom, modern fixtures with tasteful design and style. Quiet AND the hosts had locally sourced high-end chocolates as a guest gift (which were delicious). Loved the self-check in with electronic access. Streamlined the whole process and accommodated us due to our late arrival because of flight schedules. I would 100% stay in this place again if I'm back in town.

I love this hotel, and it's clear the owners David and Ryan do too. There is so much attention to detail and style in every corner. On top of the stunning interior design the rooms and beds are incredibly comfortable. If you stay here you will get form and function! Bonus points for being a queer friendly space in these scary times!

The Aida was a wonderful place to stay. The decor is really outstanding. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms are spacious. If you are looking for a unique experience the Aida is for you. I would definitely stay here again.

This little hidden gem is fabulous. Our broker made reservations for myself and three coworkers while we were here from out of town and each room is beautiful and so comfortable, but they've really thought of more than just the design. The makeup towel smells like lavender as do the pillows on the bed. The bed is one of the most comfortable beds I've slept on. The bedding is luxurious and crisp. I stayed in Suite1 and it was fabulous. Thanks!

Gorg, clean, ridic comfy, easy access and felt insanely safe as a solo female traveler. Loved this place

Beautifully decorated. Comfortable beds. Loved staying here. Enchanting historic home.

This room was fantastic and is in a great location too ! The owners obviously take pride in their hotel and it shows in all of the luxurious details. One of the nicest places we have ever stayed. We will definitely be back !
