GrandStay Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Me gustó mucho lo limpio que estaba la comidad buena"

Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The room and lobby were clean and attractive. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was very nice. There are 2 restaurants in the lobby so getting a good cup of coffee in the morning was quick and convenient. This is a very nice hotel in downtown Des Moines, not far from the airport."

Stoney Creek Hotel Des Moines - Johnston

8/10 Good

"The staff was great. The hotel was under construction while we were there & that caused a few issues - no hot tub, damp rooms, loud noises. Once construction is done i think this will be a fantastic hotel and I would definitely stay again in the future once everything is ready."

Des Lux Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay here despite having some plumping issues in the first room we were given. Upon notifying staff of the issues we were having, we got upgraded to a larger room at no cost. The staff were incredibly helpful and understanding. Both rooms were nice and clean. The free breakfast was also fantastic. I would definitely stay here again!"
