"Really enjoyed the Des Lux. All of the staff were wonderful from the front desk, breakfast staff, housekeeping and bar. We splurged on Room 504--a decadent suite on the top floor with high ceilings, tons of windows looking down Locust, fireplace, wet bar, jacuzzi tub and separate shower. The room was quiet and relaxing.
The only things missing were a robe hook in the bathroom and wine glasses. Water glasses are provided, but actual wine glasses would be nice. The bar was closed on Sunday, but there are other options nearby downtown, and with the mini bar, ice a few steps away down the hall, and Instacart, you can easily relax with a drink in your room.
Parking is easy and inexpensive in the garage across the street.
There is a beautiful lounge area in the lobby where we hung out with family members, who also stayed at Des Lux. The bartender on Friday and Saturday of our stay was really nice.
Overall, Des Lux has a vintage, boutique feel that is difficult to find where I currently live in central Oregon.
We'll definitely stay at the Des Lux again when we return to Des Moines!"
"Did not have breakfast. I stayed in Des Moines for the
Paul McCartney concert. I was hoping your bar would be open after the concert as many people wanted to continue the party. Lots of people standing in the lobby talking about concert and if the bar or a coffee bar would have been available that would have been perfect.
Our room was awesome and your staff is very friendly."
Unique 2 Bedroom loft located downtown in the Heart of Des Moines' East Village
10/10 Excellent
"I really enjoyed my stay at this loft! If I ever return to Des Moines, I’d definitely stay here again. It’s in a great location—nestled in a quiet, charming neighborhood. I felt completely safe walking from the loft to the Capitol after dark to take photos, which says a lot about the area. Highly recommend!"
