ABOUT OUR HOTEL

Our newly renovated hotel's friendly staff, accommodations and amenities provide an unbeatable experience at a great value for corporate and leisure travelers visiting Ames. We also offer shuttle service to DSM International Airport via Executive Express.
Because our hotel is closely located to ISU and Jack Trice Stadium, football fans love to stay with us when cheering on their beloved Cyclones. We're also just minutes away from the Hilton Coliseum and the breathtaking Reiman Gardens.
Business guests also benefit from staying just minutes from a number of corporate and government offices including 3M, APHIS, Barilla, BASF, Danfoss, HACH, Mary Greeley Medical Center, NVSL, Siemens and USDA. We also serve as the home for participants of ISU events, All Iowa Attack, All State Music Festival, Iowa Games, NCAA events, and Special Olympics.
Our 100% smoke-free guest rooms include free high-speed Internet access, HD cable television and a microwave and refrigerator. You can also relax in our indoor, heated pool or burn off calories in our well-equipped fitness center. Every morning you can fill up on coffee, fruits, breads, hot entrees and our signature cinnamon rolls, via our complimentary Express Start Breakfast Bar. Come "Stay Smart" with us.
