Hilton Des Moines Downtown

8/10 Good

"There was no breakfast only a restaurant for eating. The bar selection was great"

Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel that works for many different types of stays. We were in town for a concert, but prom pictures were being taken, there was a soccer tournament, and there was a wedding The staff did a great job of making each guest feel just as important as the next."

Holiday Inn Downtown - Mercy Area by IHG

8/10 Good

"Decently convenient for what we needed. Had a nice King suite. A bit outdated like the rest of the hotel. Very clean bathroom which was nice. Don’t get the chance to use or see any amenities- we were in very late and out early. Parking lot was closed off for repairs? Had to street park a ways away as the overflow lot was full and nothing else nearby. Right off the interstate. Very loud, late arriving neighbors kept me up most of the night."
