Holiday Inn Express & Suites Des Moines Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Loved everything about it staying again for sure"

Holiday Inn Downtown - Mercy Area by IHG

8/10 Good

"They had clean rooms and the staff was very friendly. The parking is the problem. There is a crumbling parking lot, that they know of and no one is allowed to park there. Understandable, but it would be helpful to let people know that you cant pull up to the building and park. This is not accessible for handicap people. Just recommend they let people know that when they book there is a problem with there parking lot, which we all would understand, just let people know that there is an issue and you are working on it."

Surety Hotel, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"Everything was clean. The room was comfortable. The only issue I had was the lack of information. There was no map or anything to show you where the exercise room was or the layout of the hotel.You could order room service but you really didn't know should you use an app or should you call there's no information there to direct you or assist you and trying to determine what the valet's number is. Besides that everything else was great."

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."
