Top Greater Des Moines Botanical Garden Hotel Reviews

Des Lux Hotel

8/10 Good

"Shower had no water pressure, bar tender was rude and off putting. Room was decent and breakfast was excellent."

Embassy Suites Hotel Des Moines Downtown

8/10 Good

"The hotel was very clean. It is dated and could use a reno. Overall great stay and staff was very helpful and friendly. Location was perfect for our visit."

Home2 Suites by Hilton Des Moines at Drake University

8/10 Good

"Room was pretty clean. Shower head was starting to not function properly. Staff was very helpful and polite, except the person who had to make more eggs ,bacon, etc, in middle of breakfast seemed to be grumpy for having to make more. Coffee ( reg) was empty also on 2nd day of breakfast. Laundry room closes at 10 pm. A very big inconvenience for us. Too many cars parked overnight in front of lobby. !! It should have a few spots for ppl checking in. You have to park in back and walk all away around building just to check in and then get your pass key card. Then you can access the doors in parking lot. That deserves less than 1 star. Overall, we liked the stay. Will probably stay again " if they do something about parking during check in" ."
