I'm not much of a breakfast eater, but I don't remember its being free the two times I had it. I did like the lunch/dinner menu quite a bit, and the room itself is very nice. I enjoyed the bar and the bartenders, all very personable and pleasant. I wish the hotel were closer to the Plaza than it turned out to be -- a bit of a hike for the mobility impaired!

We always stay at The Fontaine when in Kansas City because we love it. This time the front desk and housekeeping fell far short of expectations. We checked in to Room 307 Friday and noticed less than half a roll of toilet paper and an almost empty Kleenex box. On our way to dinner, I stopped at the front desk and ask that both be delivered to our room. They never were. The next morning, housekeeping refilled the Kleenex but still not the toilet paper. We had to track down a housekeeping cart to get one. Why aren’t there extra toilet paper rolls in every room, all the time? No one likes toilet paper anxiety.
