"We arrived late and the front desk was great getting us checked in and same when we were checking out. Our room was adequate however, the door was broken, there was a hole in the wall where the handle had more than likely gone through it and was barely patched. Bedding was ok. On any other day this would probably be a "get what you pay for" but the prices were almost triple the normal price due to an event (with most hotels booked) in the area so the price was definitely not worth it."

Top Ely Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Cedar Rapids Airport, IA

8/10 Good

"Helpful staff, close to gas and convenience store"

Days Inn & Suites by Wyndham Cedar Rapids

8/10 Good

"The room was older, but clean and comfortable. The bathroom was small but met our needs. I really appreciated that the rooms were very quiet despite being close to the interstate."

Drury Inn & Suites Iowa City Coralville

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay. Good breakfast and evening food/drinks."

Best Western Plus Longbranch Hotel & Convention Center

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the included breakfast"

Quality Inn Coralville - Iowa River Landing

10/10 Excellent

"Close to hospital. Wonderful breakfast. Friendly staff."

Hyatt Regency Coralville Hotel & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"You get what you pay for and this was exactly what I paid for. It was so clean and tidy. The pool and hot tub were the cleanest I can recall ever seeing in a hotel. I loved how comfy the beds were- not the very stiff ones like at cheaper hotels. The room was so quiet! I could not hear anyone around us. Also, the blackout curtains worked wonderfully! I loved the river view and the little walk outside. The parking was pretty easy to get into, though a little confusing at first. Every part of the hotel was clean and well maintained. And it's so close to so many things! There were tons of restaurants, event centers, and stores within walking distance. I would definitely stay here again."

Baymont by Wyndham Coralville

10/10 Excellent

"Decent place for a short stay, staff were friendly and accommodating."

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Coralville Iowa City

8/10 Good

"Comfortable stay, breakfast could be better. Solid hotel overall. The room was clean, nicely appointed, and very comfortable — no complaints there, and it's the main reason I'd stay again. Breakfast was the weak spot. The eggs and sausage were pretty good, but the potatoes were dry, and service ended at 9:00 a.m., which is earlier than the 10:00 cutoff most hotels in this range offer. If you're not an early riser, plan accordingly or budget for breakfast elsewhere. Would recommend for the rooms, with the caveat that you shouldn't count on breakfast if you like to sleep in."

Comfort Suites Coralville I-80

10/10 Excellent

"Clean. Great pool"
