Hyatt Place Des Moines/Downtown

"Rooms were clean, staff was friendly, breakfast was ok, parking close bye, everything was a bit dated, but would recommend"

Comfort Inn & Suites Event Center

8/10 Good

"Clean and comfortable beds"

Embassy Suites Hotel Des Moines Downtown

"Room was big but a little outdated. Bathroom was tiny. But all in all clean, and loved happy hour and breakfast."

Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Des Moines Airport

10/10 Excellent

"It was a nice experience I will definitely stay again"

Des Moines Marriott Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I. loved the very clean room, excellent pillows, amazing bathroom lighting, and the fact that even with a full hotel, elevators were coming quickly. The food at our luncheon and banquet was meh, but that was ok. Bathrooms at our convention got dirty and should have been serviced between our breaks, but otherwise everything was very good. One problem however, we reserved a room with two queens and they gave us a king, so we cancelled our reservation and came back by Expedia. A bit more pricey, but still fine."

GrandStay Hotel & Suites

"we called to confirm hot tub was operating and was told upon check in it was no working due to a needed repair"
