Top Dorchester Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Decorah, IA

8/10 Good

"Thanks"

Country Lodge inn

8/10 Good

"Staff was very friendly. The hallways and rooms were very clean. I would have loved a breakfast but can't ding them on that for my preferences. My only issue was the tub. The tub was so tall you almost need a step ladder to get into it. I banged my leg on it every time getting in and out. Once in the shower, you need to stand sideways in the shower or each shoulder touches the wall of the shower and the curtain (gross!). I had to shower with the curtain outside of the shower. They could use a curved shower curtain bar instead."

Sportsmen Motel

8/10 Good

"Worked out very well and a good stay!"

Scenic Valley Motel

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and just right for the one night."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Decorah

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was excellent. Staff very friendly & helpful. Loved the walk-in shower."

Quality Inn & Suites Decorah

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice place. Really thought the lady checking me in the night before was super nice."

Boarders Inn & Suites by Cobblestone Hotels – Waukon

8/10 Good

"It was a nice place. Breakfast was ok. Seattle's best coffee wasn't good but they had folgers k-cups also. We were on second floor & had no elevator so that was somewhat of a challenge."

The Sawmill Inn

8/10 Good

"The jacuzzi tub was great to relax the muscles after a day of adventure and exploration although we unfortunately had to clean it ourselves before use as there were footprints with sand and dirt within it. The remainder of the room was clean other than the solid thick layer of dust upon the top of the head board. We didn't sleep well as the bed was too firm, it is what it is. The outside curb appeal around the building itself is full of weeds and the bushes need some attention."
