Des Lux Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff provided excellent service"

Homewood Suites by Hilton Des Moines Airport

8/10 Good

"Rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was fresh and good variety of items. Did have a problem with checking in... asked for adjoining or close proximity for group for a wedding. Our room was for two days and all others were for day of wedding. Check-in time was late. Asked for early check-in but they let the prior quests have a late check-out. Had to use another room to get ready for the wedding and was not able to get back to check-in until reception was over at midnight. Didn't even apologize for the inconvenience. "

Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"It was gorgeous and so clean. Great Downtown location. Was bummed we didn’t try any of the restaurants onsite. My only gripe is the water bottle situation. They only give you 2 a day then didn’t refresh with housekeeping. When we asked for additional we got a lecture about being charged. Other Hilton properties arent as stingy about this."
