Drury Inn & Suites Overland Park

I’ll start by saying I’d like to give them 2.5 stars. But I am rounding up out of courtesy cuz 2 isn’t enough. This place wouldn’t be my first choice for a hotel by any means. This was my first stay in a Drury.
The rooms were clean I’ll give them that. But way over priced. The suite we stayed in wasn’t really big, to much space was waisted on the bedroom. Would have preferred the living space to be larger. That’s were we hung out, only sleeping in the bedroom guys. One vanity, one mirror, and one small bathroom. We stayed in a suit because we wanted space. I’ve stay in many hotel for less $$ with better amenities.
Three drink maxim? I’m an adult who can decide for myself how many drink I’ll ingest. Especially if I’m not driving anywhere. Not to mention the small amount of booze they put in the glass of the 3 drinks equalled 1 drink. On our second night our group decided it wasn’t worth our time and went out. The appetizers from 5 – 7 didn’t look appetizing and everyone skipped on them, even the kids. We ordered pizza instead.
Here’s why I rounded up. The staff were awesome, everyone was friendly and helpful. Giviny us pointers on what do do while we were in town, places to go eat, and directions.

The service was spectacular, the meeting and conference rooms were great, and again the service was spectacular. The free breakfast and dinner were nothing special but still decent. The friendly and competent service made up for everything else.

We stayed here overnight last weekend for a family visit to KC. One thing we love about Drury’s is the fact they allow pets which is amazing for us with two dogs. I am a Gold Key Member which you earn points every time you stay and no blackout dates which is a perk. Another great benefit of this hotel is the free Happy Hour (called the Kickback) in the evening which you can get hot food, salad bar, and drinks.
The check in was smooth, room was spacious and comfortable, and they had a pet area for exercise and bathroom breaks. The staff was incredibly friendly and the hot breakfast the next day was tasty. I would recommend this hotel to anyone staying in KC. Happy staying!

48 nights in a row. That’s how long I was just here. I believe that qualifies me to give an unbiased review as I should have seen everything in that time frame.
First and foremost, the staff at this location is fantastic. It felt like we were friends after 7 weeks. I was with a group of 13 other people the entire time and they agree.
Perks: 2 HUGE perks here a lot of other places don’t have. First, you get 3 free drinks a night. Bud light, wine, or a mixed drink (vodka/​run). EXCELLENT! Also, there is a gym inside the hotel that’s small, but there is a full scale gym next door. The front desk has passed that allows you to get into the gym next door for free. UNLIMITED amount of times as well. Very nice gym too.
Food: Decent, but nothing to write home to momma about. The breakfast is the same thing every day. Eggs, sausage/​bacon, biscuits, gravy, oatmeal, fruit, and a waffle maker. Dinner options rotated, but consisted of salad, baked potato, noodles, meatballs, and chicken strips. May be leaving something out.
Rooms: Good rooms! Queen sized bed with a desk and a lounge chair. Shower and bathroom are fully stocked with required toiletries. Television options are good with sports and movie channels included.
I only have 2 complaints, but they do not detract from the 5 star rating. First, this hotel allows dogs. There aren’t rooms set aside strictly for pet owners, so you can easily stay in a room that had a dog just in it. Also, you’re sleeping on beds that most people probably let their dogs sleep on. They do a good job cleaning and it in NO WAY smells like pets, but I just thought it was weird. Second, ask for a room on floors 5 – 7. Floors 2 – 4 have a large open space that looks directly down to the lobby. It can get a bit loud during happy hour as this hotel is usually pretty booked.
I’ll be back in September for another 6 days.

Decent hotel, a little better than motel, with free WiFi but challenged breakfast & happy hour.
When traveling for business you really need some basic comfort level to make your day or night. I’ve spent four nights at Drury’s and here’s the summary:
1. The room was pretty charming, with a brick wall and traditional furniture. The bed was comfy and appliances working properly. There was no safe box, so I didn’t feel my valuables were secured properly.
2. Bathroom was clean, but the floor towel was missing for the first day; there was no shower cap, I had to request it from the front desk. Shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel was in the containers, hand soap was in a bar shape, no lotion was available.
3. Breakfast and dinner were mediocre and below the average for my taste. Same items were available every day for breakfast and dinner. In fact, orange juice had little to do with oranges as well as coffee, which was pretty bad. Happy Hour was worse than all breakfasts combined together. Wines were served from huge bottles opened a long time ago, judging by their looks. Honestly, I wouldn’t mind to pay for decent beverages, but there was none available.
4. On the positive side, the front desk was pretty friendly regardless time of the day/​night. The common room was also nicely decorated with great lamp central-​piece captivating with its view.
Decent hotel if avoiding the food service, especially because there are some options in walkable distance.

I stay at this location routinely and have also stayed at the new Independence, MO location. My stays at the Drury are usually a week long; it has become my home away from home.
I’m always impressed with the staff, the cleanliness, and the atmosphere of the hotel. I’ve never had an issue during my stays with anything being unclean or with noise. I feel catered to when I stay. The breakfast is good and provides some protein, which most hotels nowadays seem not to provide unless you pay for it.
Some of these reviews are extremely nit-​picky. Maybe they are used to staying in ritzy, expensive hotels and nothing else is good enough for them. The Drury in Overland Park is nice, comfortable, clean, and affordable. It is also in a great location and has convenient highway access.

We stayed here 3 nights and things were okay, but of course not perfect and nothing ever is perfect. One night we found hairs in the bed, another night dirt, and the last night dirty toilet paper was in the stool not flushed. The beds were comfortable for a motel.
The evening starts off with a hot meal, but at times is not all that great. The price is free, so you can’t go wrong. The menu changes every night. Popcorn and pop is always available from 3:00 — 10:00 PM.
The breakfast is not bad for a motel. It is a hot breakfast that includes eggs, sausage, waffles, fruit, biscuits/​gravy, and other stuff too. The eggs are actually good and don’t take like powdered eggs.
The pool and spa appeared to have a dirty and dingy look to it. It didn’t appear to be clean to me. The spa worked excellent, but the water looked dirty and appeared to have a dirt build up on it…
We usually always stay here when we come to town, but was just disappointed this time.

This place would be fine for a single night stay. Unfortunately, we were here for an extended stay. We were told they had made over the dinner menu, so we thought we’d be safe going to a hotel with no kitchenette. However, the dinner (and breakfast for that matter) was loaded with super unhealthy options and nothing else. The «salad» bar was literally torn lettuce with carrot and celery sticks (like you’d get with hot wings). The wifi is incredibly slow and the room temp was terrible. We set the thermostat as low as it would go and the temp still never went below 78 in our room. If you are a family with kids, this place would be great (free hot dogs & pop corn with a decent pool) but it’s not great for business stay adults.

For the price, this place was amazing. We basically got two meals and a nice room for $ 105 (with tax) and that’s a pretty sweet deal. The free food isn’t amazing by any means (you can buy it if you’re not staying there, but it’s not worth the price). The room was great as were the workers. We even got some popcorn to watch SNL later that night in the beautiful king size bed. :)

I stayed at the Drury Inn on Shawnee Mission Parkway in Merriam. This was an excellent hotel with GREAT customer service. Megan was so helpful and really knew her job. The place was clean, the coffee, terrific and everything, tasteful. I will stay in a Drury Inn again.

We have family in the area so we come to visit every so often. We recently visited this hotel and were overall really pleased with the experience.
The staff was amazing. The front desk people went above and beyond to make us comfortable and were so helpful. They were very responsive to our needs. The staff for the breakfast and 5:30 kickback food were also exceptional. So friendly, kept clearing our tables of empty dishes often and took pride in their jobs. I could tell the staff were happy to work here.
Other pros of this hotel are: close to the interstate but not so close that it’s loud, indoor/​outdoor pool and jacuzzi (you can swim outside even in winter, it’s heated), huge selection of foods for breakfast that were really good, free nightly food and beverages, ample parking, nice big rooms, fridge/​microwave, comfy beds, and nice bathrooms/​showers.
My only complaint was that because this hotel chain is so good with lots of perks, it attracted a lot of families that were inconsiderate and being pet friendly meant a large inconvenience. Now, I’m a pet owner who has traveled with her dog and stayed in hotels, and I appreciate pet friendly chains. However, my dog does not bark uncontrollable and I would be mortified to be in a hotel and disturb other patrons if mine did. We were in a room with an adjacent wall to a dog that was barking uncontrollably for a long time. It echoed into our room. We were on the second floor midway down, and you could even hear it at the front desk! They were extremely responsive — moved our room far away, and had already called the owners, who had left the hotel (which I thought was against the rules to leave a pet unattended…) Our new room was much quieter, except the kids running a marathon above our heads in the evening and early morning. I’m not a parent (yet) but there is common courtesy here. Kids also were playing in the elevator (one of the two) and rendered it unusable for the first half of our stay. Not the hotel’s fault; just part of being attractive to families. Both of these things, kids and pets, are a blessing and a curse.
Will I stay in this hotel again? Definitely so. I will just request a quiet room and enjoy my free breakfast!

I have never stayed at a Drury Inn & Suites prior to this past weekend. Based on my experience at this particular location, I will definitely be staying at this hotel chain more often in the future.
I love that the Drury Inn offers so many free items. First, they have 3 free alcoholic beverages per adult per night from 5:30−7. They had quite the selection in terms of drinks, including Bud Light, a few different types of wine (e.g., Merlot, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon), and several mixed drinks (e.g., margarita, screwdriver, tequila sunrise). In addition to alcoholic drinks, they also had popcorn, Pepsi products, orange juice, apple juice, and coffee (from 3 – 10 I believe).
Not only do they offer lots of drinks, but they also offer free hot items from 5:30−7. The first night we were there, they served pasta and meatballs. The second night they had chili and macaroni and cheese. Both nights they had salad, baked potatoes, and hot dogs. All of the food was pretty good and served steaming hot. In addition to the hot items served during the evening, they also had a hot breakfast, which included eggs, muffins, bagels, sausages, waffles, yogurt, fruit, home fries, and toast. I loved that during both breakfast and the evening there was no shortage of food, which was impressive considering I came during the last half hour of both.
I found the hotel itself well cared for. Our room was clean and cozy. It also included some snacks when we arrived, including bottled water, Doritos, and peanut butter Ritz crackers. While the bed wasn’t the most comfortable one I’ve slept on, it was still pretty good. I thought the bathroom was really nice and spacious enough. My only complaint would be the road noise given that the hotel is located pretty close to the highway, but there’s nothing that they can do about that.
Finally, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I really felt like a valued customer during the entirety of my stay. I would highly recommend this hotel to others.

We stayed at the PeachTree Drury next door. Drury never disappoints. Friendly staff, clean comfortable rooms, yummy food. This property was in a really nice area also for walking my dogs.
I drive cross country a couple of times a year with my 10 year old and two dogs. We always try to stop at a town that has a Drury Inn. Don’t know how they do it so consistently where ever we land for such an affordable price, but I’m so glad they do!

We stayed in a king suite and it was nice and roomy. But when I am in a hotel, I like my room COLD. The king suite has a main room and then a «bedroom». The main room got super cold and it was very nice but the room with the bed was awful. There wasn’t any kind of airflow whatsoever in the room. I paid for this great room and was stuck sleeping on the pull out couch-​bed. The food is nachos and hot dogs and of course the 3 free drinks. I ordered a tequila sunrise single and they charged me for 2 drinks. The breakfast is basic: (what seems like) powdered eggs, sausage patties, potatoes, cereal, biscuits and gravy, yogurt and fruit. Nothing to call home about but it is free and I am thankful for that. The pool was constantly dirty and the hot tub smelled awful. They have designated smoking areas outside but not to your convenience as there wasn’t a bench at any section. I normally stay at the Hilton Garden Inn across 435 on Metcalf and I will likely end up staying there from now on as it is the same price but allows for much more comfort. The employees were nice in the forceful way. The wifi is super slow and they only have 1 computer for the «business center» which is in the main lobby.

staff is friendly, rooms are clean, the «free» hot food is only limited to simple hot dogs, potatoes, chips, salad and m&c, the wifi is not that great as speed is less than 1 mps at least that is what I got, the «fitness center» is also limited to 2 treadmills and 2 steppers and a bike, I think is a lil over priced.

Really want to give this place a five star rating, but we were woken up several times in the morning from notices from neighbors.
Other than that! This place was GREAT. $ 80 got us 2 adults for the night, free dinner (and alcohol) and breakfast, free popcorn and fountain drinks from 3−10pm and nearby everything. The dinner was more so snack foods, but amazing for me: hot dogs and nachos = happiness. Plus we BOTH got three free alcohol drinks. Granted they were smaller, but they were not watered down and were quite tasty.
All in all, we loved this place and will be looking for Drury Inns all the time now!

I love the Drury Hotels. I’ve stayed with them on a few occasions coming to Overland Park and the staff has always been wonderful and friendly. Hotel is clean and well kept and they have a small fitness center on the first floor. They also have a pool that’s half indoors, half outdoors. There’s a complimentary breakfast with eggs, french toast, bacon and cereal in the mornings and afternoon happy hour with popcorn beginning at 3 and free fountain drinks and dinner/​drinks beginning at 530 or so.
Only downside is over the weekends, they often host sports teams (soccer, basketball, softball/​baseball), so the hotel can often get loud because of the kids

Clean rooms, friendly staff, free business center with free printing, free wireless internet, and free meals!
I really enjoyed our stay here this month. We moved from TX to MO and stayed at the hotel for 4 nights while between homes. It was nice to have enough parking for big trucks and trailers that we could see from our window. The staff were very helpful with faxing documentation and mailing letters. I will admit the kickback bar gets a little old after day two but it is better than nothing and saved us money on food. The room was clean, comfortable and roomy. We had our two dogs with us and there were no issues or charge.
I would surely recommend this hotel!

Very courteous staff gave us directions to restaurants. She gave us a discount even after we had a discount… the happy hour drinks were great. families would do well here because you wouldn’t have to leave for supper– hot dogs, baked potatoes, nachos, macaroni and cheese, chili and carrots with dip. Great breakfast with french toast, scrambled eggs, waffles it was soooo good.
Big TV, soft bed with lots of pillows. Excellent hotel for the price.

I would give three and a half stars if I could. We stayed in many hotels on this holiday road trip, and there was nothing particularly wrong with this Drury Inn, but I didn’t find the staff particularly friendly.
The main problem we had was that we reserved here because they accepted pets, and when we made the reservation, no one told us that their policy was that we could not leave our dog in the room more than 30 minutes unattended. When we checked in, though, she did tell us that, which altered our plans somewhat. We were in Kansas City to visit my aunt in her rehabilitation center where she was convalescing after breaking her hip. We were a little stymied about what to do with our dog then. It turned out, the rehab facility allowed pets! But it would have been nice to be told about the policy when making the reservation.
Other than this, we found the quality of the room to be consistent with other Drury properties we have stayed in and we would probably stay here again.
