The rooms were nice, clean and bed and pillows were very comfortable. The breakfast was ok, not much for choices. The lady at the front desk wasn't very friendly, didn't provide any information about the hotel (breakfast, elevators, etc) just asked for our names, checked us in, handed us our keys and said your all set.

A welcome oasis!

Friends and I booked at the Waterfront at the conclusion of Ragbrai 2025, which ended roughly 30 minutes to the south in IA. The Waterfront was a very welcome oasis after days in the saddle and outdoor camping. The hotel is new, clean, the beds were comfortable and the front desk was very accommodating upon our arrival. Their was a wedding in the third floor event space, which wasn't a sound issue, but did provide nice life to the atmosphere. We ate at the second floor restaurant, which was great and had very fun live music. The north end of the hotel with the restaurant/bar and event space really sets this place apart for other peer hotels. It turned out there was a Blues Festival on the island, so the whole town was hopping. We didn't attend, but did take in more live music at the Blackhawk Bar (check out the 1930's art deco bar - worth a look) and found PdChien very fun all in all. The next morning the lobby breakfast was great! Plus, the river views are pretty fantastic! It's not the Plaza, but it was worth all 5 stars to me.

You can’t beat the location. Love the attacked rooftop bar/ restaurant. Great for walking the historic main St. in PDC. The breakfast on site is very good. Actually the whole layout for amenities and extras is great.

repeat customer

From the time we got to the desk and to our room until we had breakfast and checked out, we felt welcomed. There was also a wedding going on and they were busy, but the staff was on top of everything. The room was spotless and the snack tray was fully stocked, which was a nice touch! This was our 4th stay and it was the best. We will be back!
