Verified Reviews of Hyatt Place Iowa City Downtown
Below are the verified reviews from guests that we have booked recently: "The heated parking garage was a bonus!"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
Very spacious and clean rooms.
Lori M. (Individual traveler, booked 1 room), from 
23-Jan-2025 Verified Review, stayed from Mon Jan 20 to Tue Jan 21 2025 at a $90.00 average nightly rate. 
"Convenient location, friendly service, free breakfast, indoor pool, pet friendly."
Overall Score4.0/ 5
I grew up in Iowa City and typically stay with family, so this was a welcome alternative at a very affordable price. I loved that it's steps away from downtown, that staff's friendly and helpful, plenty of free breakfast options, an indoor pool with a lot of natural light and that both of our dogs could stay for a total fee of $75. Also, only $15 per night for parking (I lived in Chicago for over 20 years, so this is very reasonable). We plan to stay here in the future as it's only three five minutes from family and we have a spot of our own when visiting Iowa City.
