Top Robert D. Ray Asian Gardens Hotel Reviews

Staybridge Suites Des Moines Downtown by IHG

8/10 Good

"The Staybridge Suites was easy to find and conveniently located between downtown Des Moines and the Iowa State Capitol. Check-in was friendly and efficient. Parking was available in the multi-storey car park next door for $20 per night. My room was a good size, with modern décor and a useful kitchenette area. The reception staff were also very helpful in directing me to the nearby pickup point for the shuttle bus to the Iowa State Fair. The impressive State Capitol is well worth visiting and only a 10–15-minute walk from the hotel. The surrounding area was very quiet during my stay, although this was on a Sunday evening. There were plenty of bars and restaurants nearby, but most were largely deserted that evening. Breakfast was served downstairs and offered a good selection of both hot and cold items. Overall, this was a peaceful and convenient place for an overnight stay in Des Moines. I am not sure there would be enough in the immediate area to occupy me for more than a couple of nights, but it suited my visit very well."

Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Super cute property"

Hyatt Place Des Moines/Downtown

8/10 Good

"The front desk staff were always friendly!"

Embassy Suites Hotel Des Moines Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and clean. Staff very helpful and friendly. Free breakfast. Amazing views. Would highly recommend"

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Des Moines Downtown

8/10 Good

"The young man that checked us in was outstanding and we were able to check in early. The hotel room was clean and comfortable but the elevators and outside landscape could use a little clean up. Breakfast was ok but not a fan of it. Parking is $20 per day so we'll find another hotel next time :("

Des Lux Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The entire hotel was amazing. Our room was immaculate and comfortable. Huge bathroom. Loved the fireplace. The decorations were unique and stylish. Even our time in the hot tub was good. One of the better hotels I've stayed at in years. The breakfast is what a usual hotel breakfast was, before everybody else went cheap."

Des Moines Marriott Downtown

8/10 Good

"The stay was fine. The beds are very hard and some people like hard beds but I prefer a cushy bed. The room was pretty clean but there were some hairs scattered about. In my opinion this was an average Marriott in which I consider Marriott to be higher end. This hotel would be more appropriately branded as a four points. The people are nice, room service and food was good, but asked for some utensils and took them 2 hours to bring to the room. I had already gone down to the coffee shop and grabbed some bagged utensils. Shuttle driver Jeff was the star of the show. He was amazing, took us to the fair and airport. Very nice guy, reliable and had tons of information. Food is lacking in the area on a weekend, but the hotel food was good. Probably wouldn’t stay here again though because of nothing open on the weekends and the hard beds."

Holiday Inn Downtown - Mercy Area by IHG

8/10 Good

"Their total parking lot was unavailable. A small lot was set aside for hotel parking. It was NOT enough. Towing signs were posted everywhere else near by. Free breakfast ended up being only for young children."

Hampton Inn & Suites Des Moines Downtown

10/10 Excellent
