The Merrill Hotel & Conference Center, Muscatine, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

The meal was excellent; I didn’t expect such a brilliant meal/presentation.

front room access to meals, drinks, and conversation.

I made the reservation at the Merrill at the recommendation of friends and they could not have been more right about the hotel. The accommodations were top notch. The room was superb, the restaurant food was very good, and the staff was excellent! The staff didn’t stop working for us after checkout. A couple of days later, I was contacted by the hotel and asked if an item found in the room was ours and if so, would we like it returned. It was ours and the staff is sending it back to us! We have never had that kind of follow-up service before. If you are in Muscatine, IA, this is the place to stay!

My husband I visited the Merrill Hotel to have dinner at Maxwell's Restaurant, and spend the night. What a wonderful stay, all around. The staff was consistently friendly and helpful, the lobby is stunning and sets a great mood, the food at Maxwell's (dinner, then breakfast the next morning) was perfection, and the room itself was comfortable and clean (they thought of everything). The bed just right, the towels perfect. The worst thing I can say is that the tissue box was in the powder room rather than the main bathroom area, but we just moved it ourselves. We stayed in the Chairman's Suite on the sixth floor, overlooking the Mississippi. Beautiful views of the river and lightning from an impending Midwest thunderstorm. We look forward to returning.

Very friendly staff & very comfortable beds

I ended up in Muscatine by chance while driving the Great River Road, and this was easily the best surprise of the entire trip. The location is amazing, right on the river in a charming little town. The rooms are clean, modern, and incredibly comfortable. The hotel also offers great value with free parking. And the staff is just exceptional. A special thank you to Kelsey for the warm hospitality! This place is a true gem.

The view from the restaurant reminded us a lot Port Huron. With the big ships and trains.

Tolle Sicht auf den Mississippi. Gute Innenstadtlage, Restaurants, Fast Food, Breweries fußläufig. Gepflegte Straßen und Wege und kostenfreie Parkplätze gleich am Hotel, das getrennt durch eine mittelmäßig stark befahrene Straße und Bahnlinie unmittelbar am Mississippi liegt. Geräumige Suite im oberen Geschoss. Schalldichte Fenster, so dass der in unmittelbarer Nähe stattfindende Auto- und Zugverkehr absolut nicht stört. Personal sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit!

Second or third stay at this hotel and always very clean. Professional and friendly staff. We enjoyed Kandi at the restaurant both times we dined and Maxwell’s and food was great!

Breakfast was fine

The facilities were nice.

The hotel room was well decorated and clean and the check-in staff were helpful and friendly. A special note was Maxwell’s on the river Restaurant. Chef Tessa Cardoza accommodated my husband’s eating needs exceptionally well. His food was well presented and delicious. This kindness extended to myself, my brother and sister-in-law in that it allowed us to enjoy a meal out with with our loved one which we seldom get to do. Both our server for dinner on May 12 and for breakfast on May 13 we’re also exceptional. They answered our many questions and requests not only for my husband’s needs, but for another guest who requires a strict gluten-free diet. They were friendly, patient and professional. We would highly recommend both the hotel and Maxwell’s on the river. Thank you so much for a wonderful time.

Location along the river was fantastic. The lounge, restaurant and bar areas are fantastic. Room was very clean with great housekeeping service. Was there for my son’s gold tournament and felt it was a great value for the overall stay. The food at the restaurant was absolutely fantastic and highly recommended.

Every person that worked at the hotel was so welcoming and friendly. It’s worth the stay just to feel so welcome. We’ll be back next year for the tournament and will be staying again.
