Des Moines Iowa State Fairgrounds Hotels

"The hotel amenities and staff were excellent! From 10:00 PM to 3 AM. There was nonstop street racing that was so loud I thought they were in my room. I did not sleep at all! When I mentioned it to the front desk at check out they said “yeah it happens all the time. You should’ve called the police”. Really!? Love the hotel will never stay there again."

"We enjoyed our stay at the Hotel Fort Des Moines. Room was comfortable and clean. The restaurants, both Proudfoot and Hibnob, were great. The bartender at Proudfoot was the best!"

"Clean room"

"Great welcoming checkin staff! Hotel could use some updating but kept clean! "

"All we did was stay didn’t get a chance to use any facilities "

"I asked the desk to make the safe in my room accessible, never happened. The hair dryer did not work due to the outlet it was plugged into not resetting the gfi not possible. There was an ironing board but no iron. They had a ridiculous rule you can't take what lack luster offerings they had for breakfast to your guest room. By lack luster i mean old apples, orange juice machine empty, no bagels, donuts, just 2 basic dry cereal options or a waffle machine. Checking in was a nightmare. People were slamming doors constantly throughout the night. The room was clean and looks like they were painting the interior of the place. This was a one and done for me. "

"Great accommodations "

"Matt was a great host! He gave great directions to get to the property and how to checkin and out. The house is beautiful! It was a short drive to the fairgrounds and was great for multiple families to stay in, definitely beats a hotel. We didn't get to enjoy the outdoor seating due to frigid temps and a snow storm, but it looked like a great place to hang out when the weather is nice. I would highly recommend and we would stay here again!"
