Wake Up and Twirl.

Updated: Mar 24, 2020




Note: This experience was in July of 2019.

You had me at spa and wine bar. It was 2pm as I pulled into Chateau Avalon Hotel and Spa, and my first thought:

“Is 2pm too early for wine?”

...

Opportunity was knocking at my door! I am all about walking through doors opportunity presents- just maybe a Tuesday 2pm wine bar is not the door I am meant to seize, today?

The grand entrance of this boutique hotel transcends you right out of KC city life - and into a little fairytale. The fountains outside, the stately oak trees sending a crescendo around the hotel, the wide steps and peaks of the architecture were just a start.



I swung wide open the large door and my eyes met a notable staircase that split to either side at the next level. I felt as if I should be twirling with a flowing skirt that opened up as I danced in this entrance. NOTE: I talked myself out of the 2pm wine bar, what could be so wrong with 2pm ball room dance in this foyer? I did it.

...

A quick little twirl and my opportunity was seized. It set the perfect stage to be greeted at the inviting reception desk beside the staircase. The receptionist was on the phone and gave me a nice smile and nod. I’m pretty sure she flagged my twirl as a lady after the 2pm wine bar.




I could hear voices from behind the the reception desk and a smiling lady came out to greet me.

“Hello, how can I help you?”

“I am a sleep influencer and would love to share a blog about your hotel with my following.”

“Absolutely! I’d love to give you a tour” and she got right to it.

They had a full guest list checking in that night but I had arrived at the perfect time for a tour before the 3pm check in. I mentioned my interest in the wine bar and was informed that will open at 6pm and is open to all their guests and the general public.




We started in the the luxury room, Tuscany. Even better experiencing in person, than seeing the still images online. The bed is up on a loft overlooking the room. https://chateauavalonhotel.com/rooms/luxury/


Next, the adventure room, Castaway Isle. The ship decor was fun and the jetted tub even better! Let’s be honest, I was so tempted to take a selfie in the tub. https://chateauavalonhotel.com/rooms/adventure/




Next some classic rooms, just as nicely appointed, simply smaller and all one level. The video is of the Havana room https://chateauavalonhotel.com/rooms/classic/


The Pirate room was so cool and would be PERFECT for a pirate themed birthday party. No, not for me, silly! Can you imagine fulfilling a little pirate’s dream birthday party complete with all the decor, a tub to “shipwreck” and a bed to sail in? And all the clean up is not left to Mom! I asked if they offer a birthday package like that and she said she believes I’m the first one with that idea. Go figure, the lady twirling in the foyer also wants to bring birthday cake, party horns and a drove of kiddos. 🎉

...

I would adventure here any time an overnight stay in KC is on the agenda. As a Sleep Influencer, my rating of this boutique hotel is top notch. I’m looking forward to assisting with an upgrade to their mattresses and will be updating this post with pictures of the new mattress in rooms soon!
