Our stay was lovely. The common spaces were cozy and inviting, with trendy details that made us feel welcome. However, the room was a bit disappointing. It felt like the “extra” room they avoid booking unless all other rooms are in use. The bathroom door wouldn’t open fully without hitting the closet and mini bar area. This could be a problem for larger individuals. (Room 509) On the bright side, the pool area was great! We wished it had been a bit warmer so we could have enjoyed it more. The hot tub wasn’t very hot, and the pool wasn’t heated enough to swim comfortably. In the summer months, this hotel pool would be a 10/10. Overall, we would stay again.

We booked a king suite. While the property overall was quite nice and service was good, the sofa in the room was so broken down, it was unusable. The photos showed a bathtub in the suites, and this was not the case. The room was also dark since we had only a small window in the corner of the sitting area.

This hotel is beautiful and well-appointed! I would definitely stay here again. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The beds are very comfortable. The restaurant is A++++. Get the Filet Mignon you will not regret it. My only con was housekeeping. My room was dusty and the bed sheets were clean, but they didn’t smell fresh. The light fixtures in the bathroom were covered in dust with old splattered toothpaste. The desk and light fixtures were dusty. Just a little attention to detail here is needed. The sheets smelled like they’d been left sitting in the wash too long and they mildewed. After a long day it would be nice to slip into fresh smelling sheets. These smelled like cotton eggs mixed with bleach. All in all a great stay!

Kimpton Cottonwood disappoints again.

Checked in at 8:30pm and there was no one to take any of our luggage up to the three rooms we had booked (4-star?). Had to get our own cart and load it up from our car. On our checkout at 7:30am it was the same story. Had to drag down quite a bit of luggage on our own (no carts anywhere this time). The single woman working at checkout could not have been nicer but, come on, I've seen Holiday Inn's with more staff in the lobby than the Cottonwood. This is always an issue at Kimpton flagged hotels: beautiful, expensive, tiny rooms, and devoid of staff. I've had many decent experiences at this hotel in the past but too many like this one. Probably time to check out one of the new boutique hotels in Omaha.

Needed a desk.

I needed a desk in my room to do work. There was no desk. I never thought to even ask about a basic amenity as that. And I could have used an iron and iron board. Basic stuff.
