Ratings and reviews
2.5 / 5.0
we stayed one night going and another night coming back from Kansas city to attend a funeral. There is plenty of parking by the entrance to unload. The desk clerk was friendly and helpfully told where to park right across the street for a couple of dollars. The hotel had a huge bar in the lobby that doubled as Starbucks in the mornings. Restaurant was also in the lobby. This hotel is next to the convention center and connects by an enclosed walkway. Downtown restaurants are very close and we could have easily walked except for the bitter cold. So we took an Uber. The room was nicely decorated, clean, with good linens and pillows. Everything in the room worked well, plenty of light and two chairs. Overall it was a good, comfortable stay.

The room was amazingly clean. All the staff that worked was very polite. The food was delicious. I would definitely recommend my friends and family to stay at the downtown Hilton. Having the skywalk to get to the Wells Fargo arena was brilliant.

This hotel is all about extra charges. They want more than $4.00 for a 12 ounce can of coke. $28 for parking. They don’t have coffee out so you have to buy coffee. To greedy I will never stay there again.

1.5 / 5.0
Service at the front desk was very slow. We stayed here because it was attached to the events center/Wells Fargo Arena. The location was nice, but everything else was subpar. You have to pay almost $30 just to park your car. There is no information or map about the facility! The rugs and floors were very busy and made me dizzy! The breakfast buffet was the worst one I’ve ever been to - including free ones!! This was not free however, we had to pay $23 each for bacon, scrambled eggs, mystery muffins and burnt to a crisp pancakes!! If you need something such as butter, you’ll have to hunt someone down! Very disappointing and expensive stay☹️

There could have been more information about booking online, there being no microwave was an inconvenience and there could have been more towels and trash cans in the room but the staff overall were kind.

I wish there was a free breakfast, but otherwise it was a very nice hotel so close to the event center that I needed.

The pool was freezing the whole time. They kept saying it was fixed but they were looking at their broken thermometer, not actually feeling the water. So the pool was never warm to swim in for days. Only complaint. Beautiful property.

Close to the convention center

Walking distance to convention center. Hotel shuttle from and to airport. Also, anywhere within 2 mile radius. Excellent food at restaurant and room service.

If traveling to a NASCAR event, it’s worth the 30:00 drive from this hotel vs staying at some of the places closer to the track. Friendly service. Great breakfast and selection of beer at the bar. Centrally located in Des Moines.

Very modern and clean. Staff was very friendly.
4.0 / 5.0
The room and the staff were fine, but the parking situation did not always feel safe. I had to park at a city garage and take the skywalk or walk outside, even when I saw parking spots available in the lot. Three different times there was a man sleeping or lying in the skywalk and I was alone.
