Seems like a nice place. I was surprised at how many delicious options Big Grove Bar had for vegans and vegetarians and what a cool venue it was. We also had dinner just down the street from the Element hotel our 2nd night there at a very good not fancy Thai restaurant
There were several other places to eat and a movie theater and I believe the parking was free after 6 pm bc the meter wouldn’t take my credit card. There is a Starbucks across the street from the Element but I didn’t feel the need because the hotel coffee was fine ( and I usually don’t find this to be true) and parking at the hotel was convenient and just $15/night.

Iowa City seems built around its University, similar to Columbus, Ohio. The city centre is lovely and pedestrian/cyclist friendly. It feels very safe walking around the city which has retained its lovely country town character in the shadow of the large University. Iowa City offers both country town feeling, great bars and restaurants, excellent scientific museums, and high tech sightseeing around the University. Overall one of my top ranked cities in the US so far.

Three generations of my family lived in Iowa City from the 1930s to the 1990s. It has changed a lot but still has a cool college town vibe with echoes of the past the oldest of us (89) recall fondly. Lots to do, always. Hy Vee! And health food stores and restaurants. I hate the skyscrapers and Oaknoll ate our University Heights neighborhood, but I like the pedestrian malls on and off campus. The train to Kinnick is fun in non-COVID times. We follow the Hawkeyes and read the Press-Citizen daily from one state away, and visit when we can, and will do so till we are no more.

Super cute city with tons to do.
Super cute city with tons to do. There were outdoor activities every day of our stay. Lots of places to eat, places to shop and the nicest bunch if people you could ever meet. If you stay downtown, everything is within walking distance. Absolutely love Iowa City!

We absolutely loved this hotel!
We absolutely loved this hotel! Just walking to it from the parking lot smelled so good! By far the cleanest and most comfortable hotel we stayed in the 13 nights we stayed in during our road trip! And bonus…we got a great rate through Booking.com and paid less than $100 including taxes.

There were plenty of restaurants and bars within walking distance. It seemed safe. We were there for surgery at the hospital so we didn't stay long but we appreciated everything we needed being close by.
I loved how quirky and unique this hotel was! The front desk clerk was so nice when we arrived at 12:30am. The room was clean and the beds were amazingly comfortable. At first glance, you might think they hadn't updated in years. But if you look closer, the tile is new and it is intentionally trying for a retro 70s vibes. I personally loved it. The lobby is attached to an adorable coffee shop that has pencils ✏️ lining the walls for decor. Plus the location is so close to everything. It was a great experience!
Very central location to the pedestrian mall and campus area, restaurants abound nearby. Rooms are all the same, but adequate. Bathrooms are definitely not lavishly big but are clean. Always wish Graduates had better bathroom fans, they just never seem adequate for multiple people to take showers and clear the steam. Parking lot is conveniently nearby. Had a nice cocktail at the attached bar. Seemed to need more clear instructions for me regarding the ability to get food from the hotel restaurant.
Super fun hotel with one of a kind appeal. It’s more of a resort than a hotel. They communicate with you via text, so you’re just a text away from a delicious cocktail or bite of food. The pool area is awesome. They have outdoor patio with games. Beds and the bedding is super comfortable. There are complimentary breakfast and beverages provided. It’s a newly renovated property and they currently continue to renovate it. The staff goes above and beyond to make you stay comfortable. Very cool place!
Loved the vibe of this hotel. It was a perfect retreat from a long.road trip. Amenities were great. The sitting spaces throughout the hotel for having a chat and drink were fantastic. If you love something a bit different. With a cool vibe it's a great hotel, located right off of I 80. Very convenient. Had dinner there and it was fresh and delicious.
I liked the modern and clean feel of the room. The room darkening shades are great. Appreciated the individual temperature control so that I could keep the fan going to help with the white noise.I liked the location of this hotel since it was very convenient to the pedestrian mall, and various restaurants.
The room was so spacious and the bed was so comfortable! Everything was clean, the shower pressure was great, and you are right downtown, so you are within walking distance from local restaurants! We will be back if we happen to pass through Iowa City again!
Ideal location in former Sheraton, right on Iowa City's vibrant Ped Mall in heart of town and steps from campus Convenient to everything. Friendly staff, spacious and comfortable rooms. The decor is eclectic and a bit ... odd, but may appeal to Hawkeye fans.
This was our third stay at the hotel. I'd like to say that I love everything about it. Huge rooms, amazing floor-to-ceiling windows, super comfy bed, fully equipped kitchen & dining table. Great location.
My wife and I usually stay in this hotel when visiting our relatives in Iowa City. The bedrooms and bathrooms meet our expectations, staff are friendly and helpfull. The location is perfect for us.
The location, the staff and the facilities were great. It was such an interesting experience right in the center of the great Iowa City. Totally recommended
