Higher Ground Hotel

In Independence, Missouri’s Historic District — across the street from Harry S. Truman’s home and just a few blocks from Independence Square and the Historic Courthouse. Downtown Kansas City and Charles B. Wheeler Airport sit roughly 18–20 km away, putting historic sights and city life within easy reach.

A boutique hotel with a relaxed, historic vibe and a beautiful garden for unwinding. Rooms include TVs and the property features two lounges stocked with Blu‑ray movies plus a cosy library. Family-friendly playrooms and a library-serving High Tea give the place character without fuss.

Free on-site Wi‑Fi and free parking. Massage room, karaoke, picnic area, garden, lounges with movies and playrooms for children. Little extras like afternoon High Tea and library service make for easy, low-key downtime.

Free Wi‑Fi, elevator access, private check-in/out, laundry service and a safe-deposit box — practical comforts for both short stays and longer visits.

Order Afternoon High Tea served in the library or delivered to your room. Sip in the garden or a lounge and keep the historic weekend vibe going.
