Extended Stay Hotels in Ankeny

Many do. Extended-stay brands often offer weekly and monthly rates below their nightly average, but rates vary by property, so it pays to ask before booking.

Every hotel on this list offers in-room kitchens or kitchenettes, which means a full-size or compact refrigerator, stovetop or microwave, and cookware. Amenities like on-site laundry, free breakfast, parking, and wifi vary by property. These features are designed to make a longer stay more comfortable and cost-effective.

Extended-stay hotels offer apartment-style suites with in-room kitchens or kitchenettes, giving you more space and the ability to prepare your own meals. They're built for stays of a week or more, whether you're relocating, on a temporary assignment, or working on a project that requires a longer stay. The setup is more like a small apartment than a standard hotel room.

If you need nine or more guest rooms, Engine Groups handles the booking for you. For eight rooms or fewer, you can book self-serve through Engine's platform. Either way, you can search and compare properties like the WoodSpring Suites Ankeny Des Moines, Homewood Suites By Hilton Ankeny, and Residence Inn by Marriott Des Moines Ankeny.

For a single room or a small block, booking two to four weeks out is usually fine, though availability tightens during busy seasons. If you're booking nine or more rooms, reach out earlier so Engine Groups has time to coordinate. Planning ahead gives you more options and helps lock in pre-negotiated rates.
