Crossroads Hotel
Industrial-chic community hub. Exposed brick, reclaimed wood floors, worn leather, and a 4,000-square-foot skylit atrium. Feels like it belongs to the neighborhood as much as to its guests — freelancers at XR in the morning, locals on the rooftop at night.
Complimentary Messenger Coffee station runs daily until noon — don't sleep past it
Why It Matters
First Michelin Key hotel in Missouri. Entirely conceived around local Kansas City artisans, artists, and makers. Named after the historic Pabst Brewing Depot where Percheron horses once hauled wagons of beer — and rumored Prohibition-era bootlegging by Tom Pendergast happened next door.
A four-story, 131-room boutique hotel built inside the 1911 Pabst Brewing Depot and the adjacent Pendergast building in Kansas City's Crossroads Arts District. Opened in 2018 by Aparium Hotel Group, it's wired from the ground up with local makers: wallpaper by tattoo artist Mikey Wheeler, throws from Happy Habitat, chocolates from Christopher Elbow in the private bar, and Messenger Coffee in the lobby. In 2025 it became the first hotel in Missouri to earn a Michelin Key.
Where You'll Stay
4 room types available
Crossroads King
The signature guest room — a 334-square-foot king with exposed brick, reclaimed wood floors, a sofa, and a private bar stocked with J. Rieger & Co. spirits and Christopher Elbow chocolates. Smart TV, free WiFi, and Mikey Wheeler's plains-flora wallpaper throughout.
1 King
Pendergast Suite
Named for Kansas City's Prohibition-era political boss Tom Pendergast, who allegedly ran bootleg operations out of this very building. The suite has a separate living area with high ceilings and a skylight, downtown views, a pool table, sofa, powder room, and an oversized bathroom. Bedroom closes off with French doors. Capacity for up to 12 people. The connecting H.S. Truman Parlor (poker table, dining seating for 10) can be added on request. Subject to additional fees and deposits.
1 KingStudio King
The largest of the standard room configurations at around 390 square feet. The atrium-facing position means natural light from the building's stunning 4,000-square-foot skylit atrium pours in. Same private bar, Wheeler wallpaper, and local maker amenities as other rooms.
1 KingTwo Queen Guestroom
Same 334-square-foot footprint as the Crossroads King but configured with two queen beds — good for friends traveling together or families. Same local-maker touches throughout: Wheeler wallpaper, Hammerpress art, private bar.
