#1 of 9 hotels in Urbandale & Merle Hay by Axel's take. Urbandale & Merle Hay is #4 of 5 places to stay in Des Moines. The best hotels in Urbandale & Merle Hay, ranked · Where to stay in Des Moines
Axel's take: 8.7/10
A strong suburban stop for clean rooms, friendly service and easy parking. a reliable 3-star business hotel off I-35/I-80, scored for what it is.
This 3-star Hilton Garden Inn is a strong pick for business trips and road-trip stops, rather than a downtown Des Moines getaway. Hilton calls it recently renovated, and recent Expedia and Booking.com guests repeatedly praise clean, comfortable rooms and helpful staff. Free parking, nearby restaurants and straightforward interstate access make the practical side easy.
The trade-offs are mostly about setting and expectations: downtown is roughly a 20-minute drive, and breakfast costs extra unless your booking includes it. Breakfast feedback is mixed, while a few Tripadvisor guests still describe tired-looking areas despite the refresh. We'd choose it for a comfortable suburban base with an indoor pool and gym; we'd skip it for a walkable city break or an all-included stay.
