Top Clive Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Des Moines West Clive

10/10 Excellent

"Everything about our stay was great! The breakfast was delicious with lots of options and there were eggs, sausage and yogurt with toppings that worked for a gluten free diet. Our stay couldn't have gone better!"

Clarion Inn Des Moines Airport

2/10 Terrible

"CAUTION!!! Absolutely terrible stay. I brought my family there after a long day at the ball field to find out this hotel was having a car show in the parking lot and around the entire facility. There were people outside of the hotel sitting in lawn chairs thru the entire back and front of the facility. There were half naked girls dancing in the parking lot and an OnlyFans flag waving behind them. There was no place to park, and we had to drive thru all the people sitting alongside the hotel in lawn chairs. Very uncomfortable situation for myself and my family. Would NOT recommend staying at this hotel!!"

Drury Inn & Suites West Des Moines

8/10 Good

"Quick stop for 1 night. Very friendly staff and great location - it's nestled in a property like an outdoor mall. Experience a little affected by one side of the elevators being out, combined with a flock of traveling kid baseball teams, so we ended up skipping any kick back. 20 minutes from down town."

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Des Moines West, IA

10/10 Excellent

"loved the size of the room, refrigerator and microwave. It was clean and great location to restaurants and shops. The pool was great for the ball team to enjoy. Only complaint was that there was a ball team with older boys that were doing cannonballs into the pool and up on each other's shoulders and really rowdy. We had to have our boys get out till they left. There needed to be someone checking on the pool now and again for safety reasons. Those boys about cracked their head on the side a few times. Overall would stay again"
