The Elms Hotel Spa was born back in 1888. It was built from limestone that is native to the area, giving it a sense of permanence and local import. It is close to the Siloam Mountain Park, as well as the Hall of Waters, which are in downtown Excelsior Springs, a short 14-minute walk away.

The rooms have foam mattresses, coffee makers, and iPod docks for tunes to give the stay any groove guests prefer. The Wi-Fi comes complimentary as well, and Club-level rooms come complete with valet service, and even snacks and drinks if guests desire.

There is a spa for the indulgence of the senses, and it features locally-inspired treatments as well as those derived from international influences. The pools further add to the relaxation experience. They are both indoors and out of doors and provide a great place to cool off after an intense workout in the fitness center.

For food and drink, The Elms Hotel Spa has an upscale restaurant, 88 at the Elms, as well as a lounge and bar. 88 at the Elms has it’s own raised bed gardens in which it grows the freshest of ingredients. The food comes freshly baked from hearths or on the spit. Pasta dishes, as well as fish flown in on a daily basis, can be enjoyed as well. For coffee, guests have the option of slipping into the café for a bright start to the morning or an extension of the evening.

The Elms combines much of what discerning guests would want in a simple, yet well-thought out atmosphere that maximizes its amenities to provide a fresh Missouri experience.
