The Spotlight on Harrah's North Kansas City Hotel & Casino

Casino thrills and concert chills just minutes from the stage


Harrah's North Kansas City Hotel & Casino is a lively, entertainment-focused hotel located just a short drive from Kansas City's most beloved music venues. With its buzzing casino floor, multiple on-site restaurants, and stylish rooms equipped with cable TV and coffee makers, it's a great place to stay for fans looking to pair their show night with some Vegas-style fun.

Why Concert-goers love it

Being just 8 miles from hotspots like the 18th & Vine Jazz District, Harrah's makes it easy to catch a show and be back in your room in no time. The hotel’s vibrant nightlife means the party doesn’t have to stop after the encore, and with check-in starting at 4:00 PM and check-out at 11:00 AM, there’s enough flexibility for a relaxed stay. Despite the casino energy, guest rooms in the towers offer a quieter space to wind down.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends who want a complete night out with food, music, and games
  • Solo travelers catching a must-see artist
  • Couples making a weekend getaway out of a concert
  • Fans wanting a quieter post-concert recovery space in the hotel towers
  • Budget-conscious music fans who want entertainment without leaving the building

Food and Drink Options

Whether you're craving a gourmet steak or a comforting bowl of pho, the on-site restaurants at Harrah's have you covered. Gordon Ramsay Steak brings upscale flair, while the Royal Noodle Bar is perfect for late-night eats on the casino floor. While 24/7 room service isn't advertised, the variety of in-house dining makes grabbing a post-show bite easy. Breakfast is available for those who stayed out late.

Nightlife Options

Harrah's brings the nightlife to you with the VooDoo Lounge, a high-energy venue featuring live music, salsa nights, and comedy acts. If you’re looking to continue the vibe after your concert, you won’t need to leave the property. And for more options, downtown Kansas City nightlife is just a short ride away.

What People Say

Guests consistently praise the clean rooms, friendly staff, and the all-in-one entertainment experience. Many love the convenience of having dining, gaming, and music under one roof. The VooDoo Lounge gets high marks for its fun atmosphere and quality performers.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers mention that the decor feels a bit dated in places, and others note that the non-smoking rooms can still carry a faint casino scent. The location isn't walkable to downtown, so rideshares may be needed for certain venues.

The Bottom Line

If you're coming to Kansas City for the music but want a full night of fun in one place, Harrah's North Kansas City Hotel & Casino hits all the right notes.

After traveling almost non-stop for...

Liked: I stay at this location a lot. I enjoy the convince of the hotel.
Disliked: My room was hot all night. It stunk, the bedding was full of black crinkly hairs and the bathroom had white crusty stains all over the floor and bathtub. I paid a lot of money for a dirty stinky room. I will rethink where I stay unless it's more affordable for a dirty stinky room.

Good

Liked: Clean, taken care of, lots of things to do besides just the hotel
Disliked: Ordered doors from the app and it never made it to the restaurant. We waited over an hour and never got a response that our food was ready. Walked down to the Brew Brothers counter and they never got the order so that was frustrating

Overall, our stay at Harrahs...

Liked: The room stayed a comfortable temp. There was garage parking. The staff members that we encountered were wonderful. The room was spacious and very clean. The signage was adequate.
Disliked: Had to walk quite a ways to get something to eat. The garage was not patrolled. There were no courtesy carts to ride between garage and hotel, or casino and hotel. The mattress was uncomfortable for my husband. There were no drink stations (water and soft drinks) in the casino.
