Iowa City is what you expect from a relatively small college town with a very large state university. It was the capital of Iowa for a time when the state first started, so there's some history related to that. There's a dense gathering of museums, restaurants, and other cultural institutions around the college that are great for visitors.

It's a sweet little city, lovely campus, a variety of restaurants and eateries, beautiful shops and an outstanding library. As a writer, it is one of my favorite towns. And don't miss the beautiful Iowa-themed rest stops (if you travel I-80) or the nearby Hoover Historical site.

Seems like a nice place.

Seems like a nice place. I was surprised at how many delicious options Big Grove Bar had for vegans and vegetarians and what a cool venue it was. We also had dinner just down the street from the Element hotel our 2nd night there at a very good not fancy Thai restaurant There were several other places to eat and a movie theater and I believe the parking was free after 6 pm bc the meter wouldn’t take my credit card. There is a Starbucks across the street from the Element but I didn’t feel the need because the hotel coffee was fine ( and I usually don’t find this to be true) and parking at the hotel was convenient and just $15/night.

Iowa City seems built around its University, similar to Columbus, Ohio. The city centre is lovely and pedestrian/cyclist friendly. It feels very safe walking around the city which has retained its lovely country town character in the shadow of the large University. Iowa City offers both country town feeling, great bars and restaurants, excellent scientific museums, and high tech sightseeing around the University. Overall one of my top ranked cities in the US so far.

Three generations of my family lived in Iowa City from the 1930s to the 1990s. It has changed a lot but still has a cool college town vibe with echoes of the past the oldest of us (89) recall fondly. Lots to do, always. Hy Vee! And health food stores and restaurants. I hate the skyscrapers and Oaknoll ate our University Heights neighborhood, but I like the pedestrian malls on and off campus. The train to Kinnick is fun in non-COVID times. We follow the Hawkeyes and read the Press-Citizen daily from one state away, and visit when we can, and will do so till we are no more.

Super cute city with tons to do.

Super cute city with tons to do. There were outdoor activities every day of our stay. Lots of places to eat, places to shop and the nicest bunch if people you could ever meet. If you stay downtown, everything is within walking distance. Absolutely love Iowa City!

I enjoy everything, friendly staff, especially Mich, breakfast was good, with multiple options. Nice view from my room, I wish I had time to jump into the swimming pool, and more likely, the quietness of the whole area, I have been in different hotels in the USA, I know what I experienced at Highlander. Bref, I will go again and I will recommend anyone else. KEEP THE GOOD JOB

The setup of the hotel was different, but not bad. It was very open and bright. Breakfast was wonderful. Freshly cooked and delivered to you. I chose the ancient grain with egg. Very flavorful and filling.
