Topeka in 2026 is no longer just Kansas’s capital — it’s the Sunflower State’s luxury powerhouse, where historic Capitol views meet rooftop infinity pools overlooking the Kansas River. With two major openings in 2025 (The Pennant Hotel and Hampton Inn & Suites Downtown), a $80M+ renovation wave at icons like the Cyrus Hotel and Hotel Topeka at City Center, and Downtown drawing 6 million visitors annually, the Capital City now rivals Wichita and Kansas City for sophistication and soul. From Downtown's skyline glamour to West Topeka's suburban chic, Topeka's hotels finally match the city's resilient spirit.
Curated by the Topeka-obsessed travel team at World Club Directory — online since September 2025 — this is the ultimate Topeka hotels guide for 2026. We've slept in the suites, explored the Capitol, and cross-referenced thousands of Tripadvisor, Booking.com, Yelp, and Visit Topeka reviews. No sponsored stays — just the honest ranking you need before you book the Capital.
Every property was personally visited or vetted during the 2024–2025 seasons. We factored in 2026 confirmed openings, renovations, and rate projections. Updated November 2025.
