Harrah's Casino & Hotel Council Bluffs
3.8/5100 Reviews
This hotel was great! Everything was clean and the bed was amazing. I will say that the pillows are embarrassingly small. Of course, the bathroom was a little outdated but it was clean so it was fine. I will say while I was checking in, this gentleman named jerry was checking in in front of me. Apparently he stays for four days every week. He was upset because his usual room that he likes (odd number and on the end of the hallway) was taken already. He was incredibly hostile to the front desk worker. I forgot her name but she was a manager and had dark hair. She was very nice to this gentleman and handled the situation appropriately. Jerry was so hostile that she had to get security to come. He threatened her and cussed her up and down over this particular room. She literally had put him in the next room over, which should have been fine. Regardless this made me and my husband and the other guest have an extremely long wait to check in. This gentleman ended up yelling at all of us when he was finally done checking in. The way he treated this hotel employee made me want to go stay at Amstar because I didn’t feel safe. You would think that Harrah’s would care more about their employees safety than one single player who obviously just needs a place to stay for four days a week. Other than this awful check in experience, I enjoyed my stay.
Best Western Crossroads of the Bluffs
3.7/5101 Reviews
Check-in was quick and easy. The room was large. However, not the cleanest. I travel with antibacterial wipes, thankfully! The toilet lid had urine splashed on the back, and the corner by the tub had dirt and debris. On the duvet cover, there were particles of some variety, and black smudges in several places. One of the pillows also had fresh blue ink, so I'm assuming it was not changed. I also found mold, by the window the next morning when I woke with congestion. The hotel must be under some new management, as the room numbers were handwritten in black marker on the walls. I was on the north side, which was by the semi parking and noisy. Walls were thin I could hear conversations around me. The good... Location was easy, convenience store and restaurants next door, grab and go breakfast provided. Staff was responsive the next morning.
Holiday Inn & Suites Council Bluffs-I-29
4.2/5102 Reviews
The air conditioning unit was shoty and would get very very loud at times. Our daughter and her fiance slept on the fold out couch bed. When I tried to get a blanket for them, I was told they didn't have any and I was given a sheet. The king bed was very nice. Nice location and attached to the ******.
Hampton Inn Council Bluffs
4.2/591 Reviews
We enjoyed 3 days at the Hampton Inn Council Bluffs. Started off right with coffee and a cookie available when we checked in. Then Jessica at the front desk helped us find a good pizza place nearby, and she also told us about the shuttle service available to anywhere within 5 miles of the hotel. That was fabulous! We were driven in a nice new van back and forth to the zoo and to Old Town Market. Breakfast had a lot of variety, plenty to eat and menu changed everyday. We enjoyed spending time sitting at the chairs and table outside right by the MIssouri river. Our daughter recommended this hotel to us, and we are so glad. We will be back.
