Top Friends University Hotel Reviews

Drury Plaza Hotel Broadview - Wichita

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel really enjoyed hotel and wonderful staff Thank-you!"

Best Western Plus Wichita West Airport Inn

10/10 Excellent

"This our third stay here. The Staff is always polite and helpful. The rooms have been clean and comfortable. My only complaint is the ice machines seem to always be down for maintenance. We have been on the third floor each visit and that machine was functional this visit. Not that it is a breaking point, but Kansas does get warm in the summer."

Hotel at Old Town

10/10 Excellent

"The moment we walked in the door, we knew this was going to be one of the best places we have ever stayed. It is absolutely beautiful and the fellow at the front desk seemed to know exactly what we were looking for. My wife and I were celebrating our 5th anniversary. We are both over 70. The young crowd that gathers in Old Town was just the shot we needed to remind us that we don't get out enough. I would stay nowhere else when in Wichita. No negative comments, although we would have enjoyed a few cocktails by the pool . . . but, there is no pool. Who cares. They have a great bar downstairs and plenty of room to hang out by the water fountain."

Coratel Plus Suites Wichita West Airport

10/10 Excellent

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible all around! Amazingly clean and modern place. Super friendly staff and possibly the best food I've ever eaten at a hotel. Will only be staying here when traveling to Wichita."
