Top Central Iowa Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Des Moines/Downtown

8/10 Good

"Clean room Good staff - professional and courteous Breakfast was very good with a spotless eating area Parking was not required this trip. I would recommend it’s convenience to the downtown area."

Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Des Moines Airport

8/10 Good

"It was a simple clean hotel and room, close to the airport. There was only one place within walking distance to eat. Over all it was a nice place to stay."

Comfort Inn & Suites Event Center

8/10 Good

"Checking in was a challenge because there were several people gathered around the couch and tv in the lobby who were very loud and noisy. It made it very hard to hear what the receptionist was asking me. Maybe having a couch there isn’t the best idea because it invites groups to gather there."
