The staff were very welcoming and helpful! The breakfast area is the best I've seen at a hotel stateside! There's a few places of wear in the halls and the room, but clean and overall very impressive. The bar is pretty neat, too!
Big room, great staff, centrally located to restaurants, and Farmers market and more!
Wonderful hotel. Quiet. Bedding luxurious. Staff very friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. Would stay again
Des Lux was top notch. Ambiance was the best in town Great photo opportunity for my daughters wedding photos and guests. Guests had a wonderful experience. Staff was stupendous. Rooms are awesome.
it would be nice to have a microwave in the room. it would be convenient to have modern technology plug ins for cell phones, usb charger and c charger
This is a classic property that feels elegant. The staff was great.
I really enjoyed my 31 birthday it was so classy and the guy Kobe was so nice everything was worth it I really think this was the best hotel I ever stayed in and I stayed in a lot of hotels
Decor was unique. Staff friendly and helpful.
Great hotel. Clean, friendly and lovely all around
We LOVE the Des Lux! Its a great place to celebrate special occasions. Spring for the corner fireplace king room. Well worth it!
Great place, cozy in the middle of downtown.
Beautiful rooms. Friendly and helpful staff. Easy check in.
I cannot recommend this hotel enough. Gorgeous, clean, quiet, and super friendly staff. Sandy was amazing- went out of her way to make our stay great. The breakfast was awesome, safe but still a great selection. Easy walk to the YWCA Aquatic Center. Oh and the hotel smells amazing- not sure what they do- but the whole place smells awesome but is not overpowering. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Beautifully restored property
The hotel would have been fine however, Locust Street in front of the hotel has become a drag racing track for kids to rev their engines as loud as they can. I inquired about this noise at the front desk and they assured me that the police would make them get off the streets by 10 pm. Well... that was not rue at all. The noise of those cars lasted until at least 1:00 am. I barely got any sleep. When I mentioned at the front desk during check out, they said oh, yes, that has become the norm and the police won’t do anything about it. I wish I would have known that prior to booking our room. I will not be returning to the Des Lux Hotel because of that.
The staff was incredible, especially the front desk worker Mary
