Here you can sip a cocktail while enjoying what is, hands down, the best view in Kansas City [2]. Skies is a posh revolving restaurant perched atop the towering Hyatt Regency Crown Center.

Settle in one of Skies’ plush lounge chairs and enjoy the sweeping, panoramic view of downtown and Midtown as the restaurant makes a full revolution each hour. It’s a beautiful vista whether you’re at Skies for happy hour or a late nightcap.

Dressy attire is encouraged, and although the restaurant fills quickly you’ll be able to secure a lounge seat with a minimal wait.
