How could I have missed this one - Trip Advisor sent me an email to do some reviews and on our two month vacation across the country - we wanted to stay strictly with B&B's - they offer great service and knowledge of the area with recommendations for places to eat. This was a beautiful B&B with great hosts making... More

We celebrated my husband's 60th birthday in Des Moines. It was our first stay at The 1900 Inn. We loved it! Tim and Jane were the best hosts! The room was beautifully furnished, comfortable and cozy. We had some special dietary considerations which were pleasantly accommodated. The breakfast was divine! I would agree with the other reviews that I read... More

I spent quite a bit of time looking at Hotels and Motels in the Des Moines area before deciding to look at B & B's. I am so happy we decided to stay at a B & B. Really enjoyed our stay at the 1900 Inn. It made our visit more memorable. I believe we stayed in the least expensive... More

We spent our anniversary there. I would recommend it to anyone looking to get away for a little R&R. Tim and Jane did a great job in remodeling the entire place. Very clean and the hosts were very friendly and courteous. The kitchenette/common area on the second floor was a nice touch. The breakfast was delicious. Tim and Jane took... More

Our first time at the 1900 Inn could not have been a better experience! Easy to find, convenient location in the Des Moines area. The 1900 Inn has been wonderfully restored in recent years. Beautiful old home, tastefully furnished with period decor, and maintained with the evident pride of ownership. Our room was large, very comfortable, and included the amenities... More

I make it a point to stay at Bed & Breakfasts on most of my travels in the U.S. and Europe, so I have many experiences to compare with the 1900 Inn. This truly had to be the finest B & B I have had the opportunity to visit. The Inn was beautiful and the breakfast delicious. But it was... More

We spent a night there during our anniversary and had a wonderful time! When we first arrived it was pouring down rain and Tim (bless his heart) met us at our vehicle with umbrellas! That was so nice! We weren't there much but the hospitality at breakfast was great, we had wonderful company and Tim & Jane were great! Very... More

This was our second stay with Jane and Tim at The 1900 Inn. Nothing has changed: a prompt email reply to make our reservation, our hosts greeting us at the door as we arrive, the room exactly how I remembered it, the breakfast table and fare fit for a magazine cover with enjoyable conversation with our hosts as we dine,...

Everything was excellent. This level of hospitality is only achieved by people that love what they do. I was especially impressed by the breakfast settings. They were using plates that my mom would hide from me. If you are fortunate enough to get a booking here, you won't be disappointed. We always try not to wait til the last minute... More
