Des Moines Marriott Downtown

The stay was fine. The beds are very hard and some people like hard beds but I prefer a cushy bed. The room was pretty clean but there were some hairs scattered about. In my opinion this was an average Marriott in which I consider Marriott to be higher end. This hotel would be more appropriately branded as a four points. The people are nice, room service and food was good, but asked for some utensils and took them 2 hours to bring to the room. I had already gone down to the coffee shop and grabbed some bagged utensils. Shuttle driver Jeff was the star of the show. He was amazing, took us to the fair and airport. Very nice guy, reliable and had tons of information. Food is lacking in the area on a weekend, but the hotel food was good. Probably wouldn’t stay here again though because of nothing open on the weekends and the hard beds.

We were staying in town for the Lainey Wilson concert at the state fair. Check in was great and as busy as they were it was smooth and everyone so friendly. We were able to take the shuttle with other fair goers and the drivers were awesome. It was so nice that they offered that service. We would definitely stay again for the fair.

Cold showers. Pool space was dirty

Great accomodations and helpful staff!

Otherwise excellent service and the only hotel we will book in the future !

Great Experience

Beautiful place easy to navigate and staff was super kind

Great hotel close to so many places to go and the shuttle service is amazing. Great staff as well!

Superb

The hotel bellmen and shuttle service was outstanding. The guys took our group to the Iowa State Fair, as well as to a restaurant one of them recommended. Great service and very much appreciated. The hotel is very nice, very clean and has a nice restaurant in the lobby. The rooms were very clean, quiet and came with daily housekeeping service. The valet parking is a bit pricey, but there is a parking garage next door which is reasonable for self-park. Excellent place to stay in Des Moine.

Clean room

It a very clean hotel and room but for the price, breakfast should be included.

Very Nice place. 8/15/26 Night Bartender was very good, handled a busy crowd and was very friendly.

Very good

Complete and excellent service

Parking cost extra and you don’t have access to your vehicle. Front desk staff was less than helpful. Breakfast was over priced and didn’t have a good selection. Rooms weren’t as pictured. Elevators had key entry and was a pain most of the time.

It was decent

na

taking us to concert and right back there to pick us up. very good service and friendly too!

Some one charged my room for parking, which I did not drive if I would have not asked about my 100 deposit I wouldn’t have known about the charges. Thankfully the operator fix the problem now have to wait 3 business days for refund to post.
