This was our 2nd stay at Hotel Fort Des Moines in 6 weeks. The rooms are nicely laid out. Comfortable bed and good climate control during winter temps. I like the extra bathroom counter space which is well thought out for a smaller space. Love the historic building, deserves the love it has received from this hotel operator.

Room was clean, we were by the elevator and didn't hear other guests so very quiet. We had breakfast delivered to the room and the order was right and food was great. Staff we encountered were all very polite and respectful.

Hotel was excellent. Friendly staff, very luxurious overall. Only minor complaint was pillows (they were really flimsy and made for a rough night sleep) Everything else was immaculate though!
