Make the Most of Your Excelsior Springs Stay

Cultural heritage and wellness traditions

Excelsior Springs built its reputation on mineral waters discovered in 1880. The Hall of Waters stands as a striking Art Deco landmark from the 1930s, originally designed to dispense 4 distinct types of mineral water from what was once called "The World's Greatest Health Resort." Today, The Elms Hotel & Spa continues this wellness tradition with its limestone architecture, 16-acre grounds, and spa facilities drawing from the same historic springs. Harry S. Truman famously retreated here on election night in 1948, adding presidential history to the property.

Downtown revival and local character

The revitalized downtown district offers a walkable experience centered around historic mineral water pagodas, boutique shops like Willow Spring Mercantile, and local gathering spots including Dubious Claims Brewing Company. Ventana Gourmet Grill provides refined dining, while The Elms features upscale options at 88 at The Elms. The Fishing River Linear Park connects these attractions through the historic core. Business travelers will find the area well-suited for informal meetings, with conference facilities at The Elms accommodating larger corporate needs.

Regional access and nearby attractions

Located 30 minutes from Kansas City International Airport, Excelsior Springs serves as a convenient retreat while maintaining easy access to urban amenities. The nearby Watkins Woolen Mill State Historic Site preserves the only 19th-century textile mill in America with original machinery intact. The historic Excelsior Springs Golf Course, operating since 1915, provides a classic parkland layout for recreation between business commitments or wellness appointments.
