This hotel has a lot going for it: airy suite-like rooms that have comfortable beds, new furniture and are kept very clean. A big TV with an easy-to-access panel lets you hook up your computer or other devices to it. The location is in a strategic downtown location. The staff is super-friendly and helpful almost to a fault. Internet wireless,... More

We decided to use the valet service and it was wonderful. Everyone at the Hotel was very efficient and the best sort of friendly. The Hotel was very clean and quiet and set up for the modern traveler with electronic gadgets. The bed and pillows were so cofortable we didn't want to get up though and loved the flat screen...

Stayed for the Easter weekend, there was a problem with our reservation and we didn't get the room type we requested (due to a plumbing problem). The hotel was full for a wedding but the staff got us into the room we requested the next night and comp'ed the first night. They were extremely apologetic and helpful. Every room is... More

First time in Des Moines, and admittedly didn't expect much ... but was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed my five-night stay. Pluses: (1) Excellent staff - friendly, helpful. (2) Spacious, clean and updated rooms. (3) Connected to the skywalk for easy access in downtown Des Moines. Minuses: (1) Valet parking only. They do, however, park the cars right across the street...

I booked a reservation through Hotwire. So I got a very good deal. The place was excellent and every thing was clean. The bed was comfy and the room was spacious and well organized. The breakfast food was a good variety and had fruits and cereals plus omelet to order. The manager was great about solving a problem to some... More

Stayed here for two days on business. Was very surprised by the super-large room I received...a very big corner unit. If you need a bathtub, there was no tub at all...but shower was big enough for two people. Really large room for the price i paid on hotwire. Staff was great and valet parking quite reasonable. Bed was king-size and... More

I've stayed so many places which attempt to cater to the business traveler and wonder if they have actually talked to a business traveler sometimes. The Hyatt Place in Des Moines appears to have studied and aced the test. The dining concept is perfect, not formal but more functional including salads, freshly prepared options, and many 24-7 options including protein... More

A terrific place to stay. Staff is tops, better than most hotels I've stayed at, including Ritz Carlton and Four Seasons. Ask for Jamie at the front desk! She rocks!

This was our second time at the Hyatt Place in downtown Des Moines. The hotel is lovely and the staff is friendly. They offer a free shuttle to anywhere within a 5 mile radius. FYI: if you stay there on a weekend, you can park for free on the street very near the hotel.

This was a wonderful hotel! It had the feel of a metropolitan city. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, clean, and wonderful. The staff were all gracious and friendly. I would recommend this hotel to anyone. I plan to stay again.
