The hotel layout is awesome! It would be great for a wedding party. The pool and jaccuzi were inviting and the poolside bar had a great dinner menu. The rooms were large and very reasonably priced. Although the room was clean the bathroom had a distinct mildew smell. They need to launder their shower curtains more frequently. The complimentary breakfast... More

Free hot breakfast at a full service property? Great. Entire property was spotless. The staff were all incredibly helpful, knowledgable and friendly. Elevator would have been nice, but I needed the exercise. 5 stars!

It was a pleasure to stay at the Clarion Highlander in Iowa City Iowa. All of the hotel staff is well trained, outgoing, friendly and helpful. It was a delight to eat and relax in their restaurant/lounge. Good food and conversations with other guests and staff.

We left! The place is awful! No elevator, we didn't need one. Got to our room, smelled like chlorine. The "fireplace" was an electric log with five red lights that "glowed". Also, sagging bed and filthy carpet! Next, no phone in the room to complain. Front desk staff didn't seem surprised we were leaving, and not even apologetic!. Probably happens... More

Stayed for two nights because I was in town for a short business trip. Unfortunately I found this hotel to be very dated and not quite squeaky clean. The staff was pleasant however. The room was very dated, think 1980s (i.e., dark wood paneling, mustard/maroon colors for drapes/carpet, glass/gold lamps). Now a dated room is not the end of the... More

We just had a one night stay over holiday with family. But a very clean and nice hotel. It was quiet. Beds were comfy. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Good breakfast. Clean breakfast area and large room to eat. Reasonably priced. A little hard to find as not a clear sign where to turn right off Dodge Street, especially... More

Our stay was fine, the rooms were clean and comfortable. Price was reasonable, and the kids really liked the pool. It was fine for a one night stop over. The weather was really bad so having a restaurant on site made it nice not having to go out in the bad weather again.

We stayed at this hotel on a Wednesday night after attending a Hawkeye Basketball game. The reason for the stay was because of inclement weather and my son was having some surgery at the Ambulatory Clinic down the road at 5:30 am on the Thursday morning. We received a discount because of him being a patient there. We were very... More

Night time front desk guy was friendly and accommodating, and gave information about where to find things on the property. My room was average size, average lighting in the room, good lighting in the bath. Old style scrapey sliding glass doors leading to a grass courtyard, good heavy blackout curtains. Carpet was not spiffy clean, barely ok (wish I'd brought... More
