"Can’t say enough about the dining options on property. The café coffee is some of the best I’ve ever had. The mac & cheese there is to die for. And the daily happy hour at the upscale restaurant was also amazing. Staff was amazing and I certainly will never stay anywhere else in Iowa."
"ALL of the staff were so polite and willing to help. Our room was spotless with a gorgeous view. The shuttle was easy to access and to call for a return trip. This location also has many options for fun activities within walking distance. I can't say enough good things about our stay."

"Easy to get to, couple spots to walk to for dinner but I had the ability to use the shuttle bus that night to get a pizza from a recommendation from the front desk. Both girls working front desk were extremely friendly! "
"We enjoyed our stay at Des Lux and will definitely be back next time we come through Des Moines. After completing RAGBRAI again we decided to treat ourselves and relax a bit before heading home. The whirlpool was amazing! Spacious and just the right temp. Lots of options for dining nearby. Be sure to stop by the bar and enjoy a cocktail with Sherry. "
