#4 of 9 hotels in Downtown & Court Avenue by Axel's take. Downtown & Court Avenue is #1 of 5 places to stay in Des Moines. The best hotels in Downtown & Court Avenue, ranked · Where to stay in Des Moines

Axel's take: 8.5/10

A strong downtown base with river views, helpful staff and breakfast included. a straightforward, limited-service hotel on the downtown riverfront, scored for what it is.

This is a straightforward, limited-service Hampton whose riverfront location makes it a strong pick for exploring downtown without driving everywhere. Court Avenue restaurants and Principal Park are close by, and river-view rooms give an otherwise practical chain hotel extra appeal. Expedia and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise clean, spacious rooms and helpful staff. Free hot breakfast, an indoor pool and a gym round out a solid package for families and weekend visitors.

The attached parking garage is convenient but costs extra. Recent feedback includes occasional maintenance issues, and reports about the whirlpool's temperature and condition are mixed—don't choose it specifically for a hot soak. Renovations were scheduled through June 2026; completion wasn't independently confirmed. We'd choose it for location and dependable basics, but skip it if full-service facilities or a reliably hot whirlpool are priorities.

Best for: downtown weekends without much driving; families wanting breakfast included; baseball fans visiting Principal Park
Watch out for: paid garage parking; mixed whirlpool reports; renovation completion unconfirmed
Location: Walkable riverfront setting near Court Avenue dining and Principal Park.
Rooms: Generally spacious and comfortable; river-view rooms stand out, with occasional maintenance complaints.
Cleanliness: Strong overall feedback, though a few recent guests flag worn or dirty hallway carpets.
Service: Helpful, accommodating front-desk staff are a recurring strength across review sites.
Amenities: Free hot breakfast, Wi-Fi, indoor pool and gym; whirlpool feedback is inconsistent.
Fees and surprises: Covered parking and pets cost extra; renovations were scheduled to end in June 2026, subject to change.
