Top Temple Theater Hotel Reviews

Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property located in a walkable area of downtown. Very clean and comfortable. The room was beautifully decorated with a comfortable bed and roomy shower."

Hyatt Place Des Moines/Downtown

8/10 Good

"The room looked very clean until we pulled the bed out of the couch and found old wrapers and crumbs. Other then that everything was great including the breakfast and the pool area. Would stay again. The biggest thing I loved about the stay was they had a parking garage to park in. Yes it does cost to stay in it but I'd pay it to keep my vehicle safe and not have to fight for a street parking that u have to Pay for every 4 hours."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Des Moines Downtown

8/10 Good

"Good hotel. Friendly staff. Location not too bad. However if you click on directions to hotel (from hotel.com app) it didn’t take us right to the hotel so that was a bit of a pain."

Embassy Suites Hotel Des Moines Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"I recently had the most wonderful time staying at this beautiful hotel in the heart of the city. The spacious suites provided such a comfortable retreat after a long day of exploring local landmarks 🏙️. I was thoroughly impressed by the friendly service and the delicious breakfast options available each morning. It is truly the perfect location for anyone looking to enjoy the vibrant culture nearby 🎭. My experience was absolutely flawless, and I cannot wait to return for another relaxing visit soon. Thank you to the entire team for making my stay so memorable and pleasant!"

Des Moines Marriott Downtown

10/10 Excellent

Surety Hotel, Autograph Collection

8/10 Good

"Conveniently located well appointed property. Staff were very helpful."

City Haven: Modern Loft 2bd/2bth Downtown DSM

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place and great location!"

Downtown Loft Skyline View 2BR

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Great space."

Modern Oasis: 2-Story Loft, 2bd/2bth Downtown

8/10 Good

"Our stay at the loft was overall wonderful. Pack lightly or be prepared to make multiple trips up and down as there weren’t any carts for luggage. It was a little confusing to get the loft, but the directions were clear and we eventually figured it out. With it being a loft, with very high ceilings, it echoes. Noise travels very easily. The host, Dan, was very responsive and kind. If we ever have another visit into downtown Des Moines, we would gladly stay here again."
