Renaissance Des Moines Savery Hotel

8/10 Good

"Good location for downtown events. Clean room but Incredibly small bathroom. Attempted to grab a bite and drink at the Revelry Room but they were very understaffed."

Surety Hotel, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"What an amazing downtown hotel! We had a beautiful corner room on the 10th floor and absolutely loved our stay. The historic charm and attention to detail throughout the entire hotel were incredible. Everywhere we looked, there was something unique to admire. We only stayed for one night, but we truly wished we could have stayed longer! The hotel offers fantastic amenities and is within walking distance of so many wonderful restaurants. Valet parking was a great convenience, and every staff member we encountered was courteous, welcoming, and friendly. We had such a wonderful experience and will definitely be back for another visit. Highly recommend!"

Cozy Boho-Chic Downtown 2BD/2BR - Downtown DSM

"The owner was very quick in responding when I had any questions. We stayed here and walked to the Casey’s Center for a concert. Parking was easy. Loft was very clean. Check in and check out was very easy. No complaints at all. Would definitely stay here again!"

Downtown Loft Skyline View 2BR

10/10 Excellent

"Great property and host. Property was exactly as described and clean on arrival. Check-in was simple. Communication before, during, and after the stay was excellent. Dan responded promptly at all times, and even helped me retrieve an item I had left behind after checkout. I will definitely consider staying here next time I’m in town."
