Ames, IA Hotels – Always an Adventure

Ames is centrally located in Iowa and can be found just off the I-35, and is only 45 minutes from Des Moines. Home to Iowa State University, guests of the Best Western hotel in Ames will be located just a short drive from the many attractions and activities in nearby Des Moines, including the Iowa State Capitol Building.

Be sure to visit the Salisbury House & Gardens - open from March through December, Tuesday through Sunday. The kids will enjoy a day at Blank Park Zoo, where you can check out the Discovery Center for some Red Pandas, Sting Rays and even a Scarlet Macaw. Adventureland will be another spot for the kids, not to mention the Science Center of Iowa and the many state parks.

And for a slightly more relaxing excursion, be sure to make a visit to the Prairie Moon Winery and Vineyards, home to the Winter Moon Ice Wine - a local favorite. Enjoy your days in central Iowa, and your nights at the Best Western hotel in Ames.
