"Wonderful hotel!"

Hyatt Regency Coralville Hotel & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"You get what you pay for and this was exactly what I paid for. It was so clean and tidy. The pool and hot tub were the cleanest I can recall ever seeing in a hotel. I loved how comfy the beds were- not the very stiff ones like at cheaper hotels. The room was so quiet! I could not hear anyone around us. Also, the blackout curtains worked wonderfully! I loved the river view and the little walk outside. The parking was pretty easy to get into, though a little confusing at first. Every part of the hotel was clean and well maintained. And it's so close to so many things! There were tons of restaurants, event centers, and stores within walking distance. I would definitely stay here again."
