Best Hotels near Eastridge Shopping Center, Wichita

Can be fully occupied

I almost didn’t stay here based on the reviews, I’m glad I did stay here. Free parking is available in a city lot about a block away, or pay to park at hotel. I’d say equal in terms of security. Once again my mobile key didn’t work, but the front desk staff was friendly and took care of it. Keep in mind at this time other than their pantry there is no F&B service at this property. I had a huge king room. It overlooked the street the hotel is on, a busy street that runs through Old Town. The room was quiet and comfortable. In terms of Covid clean, this was a Courtyard PUR Clean room that would have benefited by some wipes being left for the remote etc.

We met at the Marriott for an 80th birthday celebration and family reunion. The rooms and suites were in pristine condition. The front desk staff was amazing and accommodating - Kaitie, Carly, Roman and Neema did an outstanding job. The breakfast and restaurant were very nice and we really appreciate our server Shannon each morning at breakfast.

Do the designers ever stay in their own hotel? This is a brand new hotel by one of the biggest hotel chains in the world with decades of history, research and development baffles me how things like this can keep going on. First of all, there are no USB charging jacks on the nightstands! This is a new hotel, and it is a sin not to have them. There is no shelf in the shower to set anything. You are forced to use the toilet lid. The refrigerator is an afterthought randomly sitting on the floor underneath the bathroom sink There is a hanging light/dust collector over the vanity. I’m sure housekeeping cleans this regularly. 🤣 There is a light in the shower, but nothing over the toilet. So if you the type of person who reads, you should bring a flashlight. The adjoining doors are next to the bed, instead of being next to the bathroom/hallway. It would’ve given a little bit more privacy to the bedroom area if they’ve been moved back a few feet. They could also move the thermostat to the hallway/ bathroom area instead of having next to the bed. There is a bright LED light on it, that shines in your face all night as you’re sleeping. They have blackout shades in the room that work perfectly, you could sleep all day and not know the sun is out. Unfortunately there are no privacy sheer curtains. You either have no knowledge of the outside world or are on full display of the construction workers next door and the people in the parking lot. Speaking of parking lot, the covered entrance to the hotel is in no way connected to the parking lot. You have to go to the main road, make a U turn to go to their parking. Then only to find out the side door requires a keycard to get in, that doesn’t work. When you’re in the parking lot, in the morning, usually right around check out time, the sprinklers turn on and saturate everything around you, your vehicle and the sidewalks. There is a sliding door between the bathroom and the sink which is hard to open. I would imagine young children and elderly people would not be able to do that. Don’t get me wrong, these are all first world problems. The hotel is nice and clean, brand new, and the staff are fantastic. It’s just very frustrating trying to live here and be comfortable.

We stayed at the Drury July 8th thru the 10th of July, 2022. The rate was excellent considering the amenities offered. Breakfast and Happy Hour were included. Parking was easy and the hotel location is central to everything. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was quiet, clean, and had a fridge and microwave., and a view. The beds were comfortable. I loved that The Drury installed soap dispensers in the shower instead of the wasteful little individual plastic bottles. Another excellent old school perk is room service!!! The AVÍ restaurant is adjacent to the hotel and has excellent food. Being a former resident of Wichita, I do enjoyed all the old pictures of downtown Wichita in it’s heyday. I only have two recommendations….more luggage racks and clean the outside of the windows. Other than that, I will be back.

The women at the desked helped me a lot, when I had trouble with my rental car. The room was nuce an big but this chiar was disgusting. They forgot to but towls in our room. I called in the morning, but nerver showed upand did not apologise.
