Staying at the Hotel Pattee was a delightful experience in the heart of Perry, Iowa. The unique room themes and intricate decor made my stay feel special. I was truly impressed by the exceptional hospitality; Carla went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The dining experience at Harvey's was equally memorable with tasty offerings that satisfied our cravings. However, I did feel that some aspects of the hotel, while charming, could use a little modernization to keep things fresh.

The Hotel Pattee offers a unique and charming experience, setting itself apart from typical hotels with its beautifully restored interiors and themed rooms. While we appreciated the delightful on-site activities like bowling and a fantastic dining experience at Harvey's, the lack of ice machines and the dry whirlpool during our stay were disappointing. The price felt reasonable for the amenities provided, but the ongoing construction was a downside that could have been communicated better.
