Went to graduation at the Wells Fargo Arena.
Went to graduation at the Wells Fargo Arena. The view of the bridge on the Riverwalk on the Des Moines River and dam lit up at night was awesome. So was the state capitol in the background. Felt very safe there. Biaggii's Italian Restaurant was superb. Our waiter Alan was very efficient and had a great memory for our size table. The Lobster Bisque, chocolate cake, mini sundaes, bread... everything. Just try it.JeanUnited States of America - 2.0Scored 2.0
This hotel is unfortunately one I would never use again....
This hotel is unfortunately one I would never use again.... My friends and I had planned a trip to see basketball we live in the UK. I made a mistake and put in the wrong Arena on Booking.com and this hotel came up. I booked two rooms and when we put in the zip code it was 1,000 miles away!!! I contacted booking.com literally 3 minutes after booking who contacted the hotel on my behalf and they refused to answer me or booking.com. I lost £270.00. Moral of the story they were in their rights to take the money but the fact they ignored both me and booking.com says a lot about the company greed. Enjoy spending my money..

I lived in Des Moines for 32 years and always enjoy our summer returns for the season of the Des Moines Metro Opera. Farmers Market, Court Avenue, the East Village, the Art Center, the Botanical Garden, all are worth a visit.JoeUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

Des Moines is a very nice city, downtown is nice especially the skywalks. Our visit to the capitol grounds for the Des Moines symphony Yankee Doodle Pops event was awesome. We lived there a little over 30 years ago and still have friends that we visit from time to time. We always enjoy our visits.Oldenkamp - 8.0Scored 8.0
Hotel was an easy walk to Civic Center and restaurants.
Hotel was an easy walk to Civic Center and restaurants. Lots of restaurants nearby to choose from. Went to Court Street Brew Pub - casual and great for a variety of beers. Splash is a nice seafood restaurant - quiet and low key. Parking is pricey whether in the ramp or on the street. Cute shops downtown - nice change from mall shopping. Locally owned! Cooking store, spices, oil and vinegar shop, gift shops. Hotel is historic and recently renovated - nicely done. Room was comfortable and quiet. Staff was pleasant and friendly.VictoriaUnited States of America - 10Scored 10

Des Moines is a thriving metropolitan city with plenty of events and entertainment value. From exciting sporting events to an entertaining amusement park with a fabulous waterpark (better than Oceans of Fun in Kansas City). Exciting nightlife with alot of clubs with live entertainment. Golf Courses, Extreme skating park and many nice parks. If your a bicycler, their trail system is 2nd to none for riding enjoyment. Clean and friendly people. A nice place to visit. If you're lucky enough to be there during the Iowa State Fair, one of the best fairs in the USA!

- From $76.16 per night4.7Scored 4.7DisappointingRated disappointing· 389 reviewsWe did not even stay there...we checked in a little after 3. Our room was not even clean or ready. The room next to us had a barking dog, the hallway smelled of animal and human urine, no one was doing any housekeeping, there was a line waiting for help, and one other customer was looking for a phone charger because hers had been stolen from her room. When we complained to the main desk she stated that they were short staffed. We drove almost 4 hours for my grandsons medical appointment and that is what we had happen.TammiUnited States of America
- From $339.66 per night8.8Scored 8.8ExcellentRated excellent· 159 reviewsSurety is a beautifully restored hotel with a great vibe and super nice staff. They took great care of me and my dog, Amy upgraded us to ensure we were in a very quiet room so my dog was relaxed. The rooms are large and nicely done, bed was perfect. I ate at the restaurant twice and was very impressed with the cocktails and locally sourced fish, veg and homemade pasta. It’s very close to Court Street and the nightlife. I will definitely stay again and highly recommend it!
LauraUnited States of America - From $329.19 per night8.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 183 reviewsWe could tell that there was a decent amount of people staying in the hotel but we never were bothered by hearing anyone though the door or late at night up and down the hallway. 15 minute drive from downtown was perfect.

- From $258.20 per night8.9Scored 8.9ExcellentRated excellent· 248 reviewsI had a quick and comfortable stay at the Home 2 Suites by Hilton. The rooms were very spacious, clean and had all the right amenities. The check in process was seamless and I managed to check in earlier than the check in time. Polite staff and a good location right on University avenue at Drake University.
