Best Hotels in Ames

Ames is a city in central Iowa, best known as the home of Iowa State University. Many of the area’s attractions are centered on or around this storied institute of higher learning, as the 500 acre complex is in the middle of downtown. Check out the Brunnier Art Museum, where artwork from around the world is on display. Another notable campus attraction is the Reiman Gardens, with an expansive collection of rose gardens and butterflies. The downtown district itself features historic brick buildings, with a number of shops and cafes for visitors to enjoy. For a unique day trip, make the 15 minute drive to Story City. An antique carousel is the featured attraction here, taking visitors back in time to a 19th century Midwestern fair.
