Top Southwestern Hills Hotel Reviews

Des Lux Hotel

Des Lux Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel was way more luxury than I've ever stayed at before. The hotel makes a great impression when you walk in, especially with the front desk staff being so friendly. The lobby is a vibe that Iam fully here for. This extended to the hallways and our room. We walked into a fireplace and couch set up that begged you to sit and relax with an eating corner and honest bar behind you and the bed off to the side. The bathroom is HUGE. A walk in shower and a separate bathtub with a chandelier over it screams excess in the best way. And the bed. Wow that bed. More comfortable than my bed at home. It was like sleeping on a cloud. This room was worth every penny I paid for it and it really made the whole experience. Can't say I'll be back in Iowa anytime soon but I know where I'll be staying if I return!"
