The Fontaine: Kansas City Hotel Review

One of the nicest parts of traveling to Kansas City is visiting Country Club Plaza. It’s a wonderful place to spend the day any time of year, but winter is special. The Plaza Lighting Ceremony, held Thanksgiving evening, is particularly nice. The lights shine every night until mid-January.

Hotel Review: Alt-Ringlein in Bamberg, Germany
