Best Hotel in Cedar rapids

This is one of the best hotels ever! My son plays travel baseball and when we come to Cedar Rapids for tournaments we will NOT stay anywhere else! Its not the close to the field, but we'd rather drive 20 minutes than stay anywhere else. It clean, quiet, comfortable. I literally can't stay enough nice things!

Thank you, Kirkwood!

I loved my stay at Kirkwood! The lobby was beautiful and the check in process was easy and friendly. The room was beautiful and expertly designed.
