This hotel was very high class and fancy. Great location and amenities. The only downside was parking across the street.

Amazing stay! Extremely clean! The sauna was an amazing add on!

The staff was just absolutely wonderful- so helpful and pleasant!

My husband and I were in Des Moines for a concert and we stayed at Des Lux. It was a very nice hotel and we would for sure stay there again.

This place is AMAZING! The decor and overall vibe of “brooding romantic” is done perfectly. The staff was amazing on every shift, the complimentary breakfast has one the best spreads I’ve ever seen, the onsite bar was lively most nights with good drinks, an experienced, friendly bartender and useful hours. The hotel was generally well booked and I rarely heard another guest, the rooms were unique and as nice as the rest of hotel was. Only downsides would be the parking situation which, is most conveniently, found across the street in the parking structure at $10/24hrs max, $1/hr and the tub/shower could use updating, at least in the room I was in. Put in a nice walk in shower with a rain head and side jets and I would’ve probably just moved in. I stayed here for a week total with 2 extensions because of work issues and the staff was so accommodating, service was amazing and I KNOW that I was a pain sometimes, they never made me feel like one. I stay in a lot of hotels while traveling for work and at this price point, as well as many above it, it was hands down the best I’ve ever experienced. Bravo to those involved in making this hotel what it is, I hope I return to Des Moines just for a chance to experience this place again.

Friendly staff, clean and fresh and updated, festive for Halloween

Love the place but downtown area needs a lot of cleaning up

The hotel is so unique with the decor! The staff is always amazing and makes you feel like family. The hotel is in a great location which allows you to walk to so many places.
