This was one of the worst hotels I've ever stayed at. Our first room had a ”view” of the atrium (and I use that word generously), meaning that we would need to keep the curtains closed at all times. We didn't keep that room for long though -- not after discovering more problems (no soap in the bathroom, somebody's ice packs in the refrigerator and worst of all WADDED-UP DIRTY CLOTHES IN THE DRESSER). I called the front desk about the problems and they said they would inspect another room so we could move. Thirty minutes later, our 2nd room was only slightly better. We wiped down all the surfaces with Clorox wipes and saw that the bathroom counter was especially dirty. Basic things you need in a room were absent -- we had only two hangers in the closet, and no luggage rack. Both rooms' sinks and bathtubs were dated and rusty. Someone else in our group rushed over to Wal-Mart to buy flip- flops because she didn't want her feet to touch the bathroom floor or tub. Way, way overpriced at $154/night including taxes. If we hadn't been stuck at this property because of a group reservation, we would have asked for a refund and bailed out.
Stayed at the Hotel Fort Des Moines during the week on business and it was a wonderful stay! My king room was modern yet elegant, spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. Our group also had an evening gathering at their Reading Room and adjacent Study where the food served was 10/10! There doesn't seem to be a ton immediately around the hotel by foot, but we did land at the South Union Bread Café for lunch and it was delicious. I would book another stay at Hotel Fort Des Moines!

This review is about a month and a half late but better late than never. My partner and I were in town for a family emergency. Upon arrival we were greeted and checked in by Charlie, whom we later learned was just in Des Moines to help out. Charlie was phenomenal for the entirety of our 4 day stay. He was very welcoming and professional - when the rest of my family came over before we went to the little restaurant/bar downstairs Charlie took the time to give us a little tour and history of the building. Not only is the building history very intrigueing but Charlie did a great job of making us feel right at home. We also learned a little about the hotel company and are looking forward to booking a stay at another venue soon. Highly recommend the hotel- very cute, and cozy. The barista in the morning helped us with coffee and was very nice. The service at the Restaurant/bar was a little slow but we also came in toward the end of the night so I'd assume everyone was just tired and ready to get out of there. Overall 100% - I am originally from Iowa and will be staying at the Surety Hotel for all future return trips.

We had an amazing experience from the minute we walked in the door. We had been playing since April and traveling most of July with our daughter’s basketball program and this was our last stop. The staff was so accommodating and helpful. They offered us shuttle service, help with our luggage and tips for what to do around town. And that was just within the first few minutes. The hotel is beautifully renovated and in a great location. I highly recommend staying here and can’t wait until we can come back. Thank you for the hospitality!

We had a weekend visit with family. Modern, very clean hotel across the street from Drake University. Near some good restaurants and at least one coffee house. Easy to drive around town. We had a suite that slept six with a small kitchen. We really used the fridge and microwave. Fold-out sofa was comfortable for me, with two queen beds. Shower could have used more power. We never tried the breakfast. My middle school nieces liked the indoor pool. Pretty quiet for the most part, but was getting crowded on the weekend. Appreciated the security features, such as no way to access elevators without room key. Staff were very helpful. Easy check in.
Had an early morning flight out of DSM so I booked their Park Stay Go 8 day program. It turned out to be a very good decision. First off, check in upon arrival was a breeze. Aside from the usual process, I was asked to fill out an information card about my car, which I was going to leave in their lot for 5 nights. The room was clean and spacious. Amenities were modern. A very interesting fact is that the bed was a Murphy bed! I found out because I noticed the intriguing design of the bed and decided to explore. I had always wanted to try one, so this was awesome! I also liked the unique central zone under the “Holidome”, which houses a pool, lounge chairs, etc. The next morning, the hotel shuttle bus brought me to the airport, which was only around 5 minutes away. Upon return, I called the hotel and the shuttle came to pick me up within 10 minutes and I was dropped off right beside my car.

Iowa Events Center
RRiverBlueIt's a famous place, and I don't know what it's like to be a government office, it's not really a building, it's a space.
Robert D. Ray Asian Garden
红红绿蓝白A Chinese temple building just by the river is not too recommended.
Greater Des Moines Botanical Garden

[Fun] A very interesting place
State Historical Building
