A little nostalgia for us old folks who remember the heyday of the Holidome concept. This one is beautifully preserved and is one of the best in the country. Room was clean, modern, and had excellent internet. Rooms service was personable, prompt, accurate, and has the best green beans (with bacon & onions) you have ever tasted (prime rib excellent,... more

We stayed at this hotel last week and it was fabulous! Check in was fast and friendly. We stayed there for free as we had earned a free night through Holiday Inn's summer promotion. I figured we would get not a great room-we really got a nice one. It overlooked the Holidome area with it's own balcony. This was especially... more

This is an older property, but nothing wrong with aging gracefully! Every employee I encountered during my 2-night stay was friendly and you got the impression that they enjoyed what they do. The restaurant is a cafeteria style grille that might not be for everyone, but I loved it. You could do healthy or deep-fried; a great selection. The shuttle... more

First impressions were good, as check-in was friendly and efficient, as were all of the staff I encountered. Despite being an older hotel, the rooms were in decent shape and more importantly appeared clean. That was where the good points ended. The shower seemed to have two temperatures: burning hot or freezing cold, with it deciding for itself which temperature... more

We stayed here with our car club. The staff did a great job of accommodating everyone as people kept going to the desk with questions, etc. We used different conference rooms and everything seemed to work. There were torrential rains and hail and the roof in the dome by the pool was leaking. The banquet was then moved to another... more

Late fall of 2007 has been a brutal travel season, and I found myself at the Des Moines airport recently - two hours later than expected (we had to make an unplanned stop in Omaha to wait out the Des Moines airport plowing), with a rental car and icy roads all the way to Cedar Rapids. I thought I could... more

We checked in on a Friday night with the family. The hotel is a bit older and it's right next to the airport. There were several restaurants you could get to within a few miles. They have a nice indoor dome area with tables, a pool, whirlpool, etc. The problem is the smoke. Most of the people who had poolside... more

I was disappointed with my stay here. A very tired hotel, in definite need of an upgrade. Would likely not stay here upon my return. more

My friend and I stayed here for one night for a business conference taking place in the hotel. The room was clean, the pillows were SO comfortable, and the temperature was average. We didn't use any of the hotel ammenities but they looked good. This was a great location. The customer service was exceptional; they always greeted you with a... more
