AC Hotel Kansas City Westport / Plaza

JLL’s Hotels & Hospitality Group, as the sole and exclusive agent for the owner, is pleased to offer for sale a fee-simple interest in the 123-room AC Hotel Kansas City Plaza (the “AC” or “Hotel”). This premium-branded, select-service asset is located in Kansas City’s Westport neighborhood, a high-energy entertainment district adjacent to the iconic Country Club Plaza (“Plaza”)—a landmark 15-block destination renowned for its upscale retail, dining, and lively atmosphere that attracts more than 15 million visitors annually. The Plaza was recently acquired by a new owner who is embarking on a transformative redevelopment to further elevate the area’s appeal and boost visitation.

Adding to this strong locational foundation, Kansas City has finalized plans to relocate the Royals’ Kauffman Stadium to the Crown Center area. Thanks to the proximate and expanding KC Streetcar line, guests will enjoy direct access to the new ballpark, placing the Hotel just three stops away from a venue poised to welcome millions of attendees each year. Additionally, in preparation for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, developers are accelerating major infrastructure projects geared toward enhancing the visitor experience and supporting long-term tourism growth.

The AC presents a compelling opportunity to acquire an institutional-quality asset at a significant discount to replacement cost, undertake the imminent brand-mandated refresh, and reinvigorate the Hotel’s competitive stature amid Kansas City’s positive lodging trajectory
