Top Maxwell Hotel Reviews

Des Lux Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Clean facilities and rooms, with friendly and helpful staff. The team was attentive, took care of anything we needed, and provided great recommendations for nearby restaurants and other places to check out. Overall, a very pleasant stay and a well maintained hotel."

Hotel Fort Des Moines, Curio Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"The room was great. Some mold in the showers and the shower would have a lot of water staying in it. But overall beautiful hotel."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Ankeny IA - Des Moines IA

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast service area was very well designed and worked much better than most. The breakfast was excellent. Our only complaint was that apparently someone in an adjoining room was smoking in their bathroom with the vent fan. In any event, cigarette was coming into our bathroom. After I turned on our vent fan, the smoke was expelled, and everything smelled clear again in a short time."

Comfort Inn & Suites Event Center

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and quiet even though there was an active group staying there. Breakfast was excellent especially the banana nut muffins, very fresh and tasty. The staff is so helpful and cheerful that it is a pleasure to stay here an entire weekend."
