Drawing inspiration from our storied past, Crossroads Hotel embraces a deep connection to Kansas City, a city full of potential, resolve, and creativity. At its center is a vibrant artistic neighborhood and our diverse Crossroads community.
The famed Pabst and Pendergast buildings now have a whole new story to tell. Reimagined as the community-driven Crossroads Hotel, we're steeped in the city's past and busy making its future.
Architecture and art, shopping and sports, culture and community. Whether here for business or pleasure, Kansas City is ready to welcome you.
