Top Blank Park Zoo Hotel Reviews

AmericInn by Wyndham Des Moines Airport

10/10 Excellent

"We had a change of plans and the staff was very accommodating and helpful!"

Homewood Suites by Hilton Des Moines Airport

8/10 Good

"Room was clean but it was a suite and the couch was definitely needing some work. Or replacing would be better. Furniture definitely showed some age, Pillows were so soft not comfortable at all . We will come back and give them another try. Hilton is usually pretty nice. Thanks"

The Palms Mirage House 3 Bedroom Home

8/10 Good

"The house is lovely for a weekend of meditation or connecting with nature, but I wouldn't recommend it for very outgoing families, as the local community is very sensitive about music. I actually felt stressed by the surrounding environment; in my view, renting a house implies having more freedom to have fun, but that wasn't the case here. Next time, I’d choose a hotel instead—I’d have a better time and save money, too."
