Top Western Gateway Park Hotel Reviews

Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Our first time to Des Moines. This hotel is in a very convenient location to lots of things. it is also safe to walk in that neighborhood at all hours. You can park your car for the entire weekend and never have to retrieve it, there is valet or self parking. The staff are all friendly and helpful. Our bathroom sink had a leak and maintenance was there within 10 minutes to fix it. They were respectful and had the problem fixed in a just a few minutes. The gym is very nice, quiet because there are no tvs and ample exercise machines, work out mats, free weights, weight machines. There are two restaurants, one more casual that is open for breakfast lunch and dinner that serves excellent coffee to go and pastries, we had breakfast one morning and the food was excellent as well (omelet, avocado toast). We had drinks in the Proudfoot and Bird which is the fancier restaurant and their food menu looked really nice too. Again, walking distance to the Pappajohns sculpture garden, the Events and Expo center, and Principal Park where the Iows Cubs play. Will definitely stay here again"

Holiday Inn Downtown - Mercy Area by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"I understand they are doing a lot of maintenance but parking was very inadequate. We had to park almost two blocks away and carry bags from a long distance. They must be remodeling so I would come back again but if I know about the parlor issue I wouldn’t have stayed there as I am having back issues currently."

Hyatt Place Des Moines/Downtown

8/10 Good

"Our stay was decent overall. The biggest downside was the parking situation. Parking is located in a garage across the street, but that wasn't disclosed when we booked the room. It would have been helpful to know that in advance so we could plan accordingly. Aside from that, everything else was fine, and we had a pleasant enough stay."
