K.C. Downtown Marriot no inventory loaded after end of the year
I have been checking for weeks and they still are not releasing any inventory after the 1st of the year. I called reservations and they contacted the property. Came back on line and said wasn't sure what was going on and no one at the property had any idea what was going on.

It looks like the Plat override is working (as the hotel doesn't control that) as that is what the $279/night rate is. I suspect the OP is correct and the hotel, for whatever reasons, hasn't loaded any room rates into the system yet for next year. Your best bet is to keep trying the hotel directly. They are the ones who will have to load the appropriate rates into the system.

I didn't qualify for Plat last year and I'm just a lowly Gold.

Could the property be planning to leave Marriott? There's a rumor of Hyatt returning to KC.

OTOH, the old RC by the historic shopping plaza, while not downtown, would be an interesting choice. It's been reflagged several times after being one of the least expensive RCs in the system.
