Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"I would have liked a microwave in the room to warm up my coffee. 😀 Otherwise, great place to stay."

Comfort Inn & Suites Event Center

8/10 Good

"I picked this hotel mostly for the proximity to the start line of the Des Moines Marathon. I could walk to the start which was great. It was clean, even if the cushions in the breakfast room were a little shabby. The coffee was god awful though. I had to go out and get my own each morning. Also wish there was a hot tub in addition to the pool."

Surety Hotel, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"What an amazing downtown hotel! We had a beautiful corner room on the 10th floor and absolutely loved our stay. The historic charm and attention to detail throughout the entire hotel were incredible. Everywhere we looked, there was something unique to admire. We only stayed for one night, but we truly wished we could have stayed longer! The hotel offers fantastic amenities and is within walking distance of so many wonderful restaurants. Valet parking was a great convenience, and every staff member we encountered was courteous, welcoming, and friendly. We had such a wonderful experience and will definitely be back for another visit. Highly recommend!"
