What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set in the historic financial district, the hotel puts Court Avenue nightlife and the neoclassical Polk County Courthouse steps from the door.
The rooms
Leather headboards and mid-century lines warm the rooms, paired with tiled walk-in rainfall showers and local Iowa treats.
The gym
Peloton bikes and treadmills face multi-pane windows looking toward downtown, alongside free weights and strength training stations.
Yoga and stretching
The brick-walled studio catches morning light through tall glass doors, with open space for yoga mats and stretching.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Mulberry Street Tavern
Guests gather in tufted burgundy booths beneath fluted timber columns for double-patty smash burgers, Scotch eggs, and craft cocktails.
How it began
Constructed in 1913 as an insurance headquarters and bank, the twelve-story Beaux-Arts high-rise was reborn as a hotel in 2020.
