Top Council Bluffs Hotel Reviews

Courtyard by Marriott Omaha East/Council Bluffs, IA

8/10 Good

"The hotel was clean, the staff we encountered were very nice and we had no real issues. My only feedback would be to please do something different with the shower. Water pressure was terrible and showering in a clear glass half wall under a spotlight is not what I call a good time. The room can’t even get warm. It wasn’t great. That’s why I gave 4 stars. Also the crooked furniture was a weird design choice."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Council Bluffs, IA

8/10 Good

"The hotel looks like almost new, however, in a couple of areas it was less than perfect comparing to other hotels we stayed in during our trip. Less selection at breakfast, noisier bathroom fan and AC. Hence the 4 star rating."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Council Bluffs - Conv Ctr by IHG

8/10 Good

"This hotel is a fine hotel. The room was adequate for our needs. The pool was not usable for lap swimming as it was too small. The work out room was another area that was lacking. They supplied two towels when we had 4-6 people using it in the morning and there weren’t any cleaning towelettes to wipe down the machines as we were instructed to do. Otherwise, the breakfast was fine."

BridgePointe Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Accomodating with a service pet, nice hot showers and comfortable bed."

My Place Hotel - Council Bluffs/Omaha East, IA

10/10 Excellent

"This was our 2nd time staying here. It was another one night stay but it was great. Room was nice and the beds were comfy. The kitchen in the room is a great idea. If we would've stayed longer it would've been very useful. We learned this time that all you have to do is ask for the utensils, dishware, cookware you need. Tyler helped us upon check in. He is friendly and helpful. This place needs to make sure they keep him. His customer service is top notch!"

Best Western Crossroads Of The Bluffs

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and updated, a huge relief after 11 hrs in the road. Ice was readily available down the hall. Did not use pool or fitness room, breakfast was good and well rounded."

Hampton Inn Council Bluffs

10/10 Excellent

"."

Harrah's Council Bluffs Hotel & Casino - A Caesars Rewards Destination

8/10 Good

"This hotel was clean and open. We did not like the smell of smoke everywhere and the casino was small and became very loud,smoky and crowded in the evening. We had great difficulty find the place since th gps has thwm on thw other side of thw river...when i mentioned this at check in they said they were aware of this."

Comfort Suites Omaha East-Council Bluffs

8/10 Good

"Room was nice, staff at checking was friendly and breakfast was good. Only reason for not giving a 5 star was the towels were dirty. Maybe just an oversight as everything else was good"
