Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful hotel, very accommodating when I ask them for more towels and shampoo(I have long hair and lots of it). Breakfast was so delicious. The bar was wonderful. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. My room was clean if there is one negative sound travels and I was awaken pretty early possibly because my room was in the back of the hotel."

"The hotel is beautiful and clean. Will return!"

Hilton Garden Inn Des Moines/Urbandale

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk staff were very helpful. Area is very quiet with lots of necessities nearby (gas stations, food, coffee, shopping). Price of room was very good for the quality of the stay. Rooms clean. Breakfast was not included but they did offer a pay for meal option, we did not have time to use so unsure the quality of the food. Would stay here again, highly recommend."

Courtyard Marriott Ankeny

8/10 Good

"Property was very clean, room and beds were comfortable. Cold water in the lobby was nice. Coffee in the room wasn’t worth making, so I didn’t. No free coffee in the lobby, but a “bistro” where you could buy coffee and breakfast but neither were open when we left. Parking was free and plenty of it. Over-all I recommend the property."
