Known as “Kansas City's original boutique hotel,” The Raphael has a rich history dating back to 1928. And this month, the hotel is proud to honor its historic significance by unveiling a new, custom mural, representing Kansas City's rich heritage and popular attractions. Designed by local artist Marianne Cascone, the mural showcases our city's most iconic landmarks, symbols and sculptures. See it today located inside The Raphael's main stairwell just off the lobby.
