We spent one night at this hotel and will never stay here again! The room we were in needed maintenance and was VERY dated. Our room looked nothing like the room on this site. We even had a big, black spider in our sheets to greet us when we pulled down the bed covers. The towel bar in the bathroom... More

We stayed here one night for a wedding in town. First impression was that it was definitely historical. Our room was very small but we weren't planning on spending much time in there anyway. For the most part it was clean and comfortable. The sheets on the bed did not match and were sort of a yellow color and the... More

We read of the Park Motel in a guidebook about the Lincoln Highway. Located in Denison, IA (the home of Donna Reed), it is nicely located on the highway, close to downtown and right across the street from a very nice restaurant. The managers were very welcoming and helpful. Some of the rooms in the original 1940's section are themed.... More

I spent three nights at the Park for work. I specifically requested a room in the original section, which was built in 1940. For $50 with tax, I got a big corner room on the second floor. The owners are nice people, and are really proud of the history behind their motel. There's some interesting stuff in the lobby about... More

I have to admit that I was already expecting greatness as this hotel is rated #1 in Denison and I was not at all disappointed. We have been driving from the Caribbean (Mexico) to California and now out to the midwest before heading home and we're getting a little tired of constant motel rooms. This hotel was a nice change...

Four couples attending the Iowa Hog Rally in Carroll stayed two nights in mid-July at the Historical Park Motel in Denison, Iowa. Our room had a small frig/microwave, new carpet, and decent bathroom. Walls are somewhat thin. Hairdryers are available in the lobby. We had no issues with water pressure but another couple did. Motel does not provide breakfast but... More
