The affordable 3-star Mainstay Suites Dubuque At Hwy 20 hotel is conveniently located in a business area and offers a vending machine and a lift. Offering a courtyard and barbecue grills, the traditional hotel is about a 10-minute ride from Flora Park and a few blocks from a motorway.

Location

The classic hotel is nestled in Dubuque, near a botanical garden and gardens. You can visit the Grand Harbor Resort and Waterpark that is within a 7-km distance of the smoke-free Mainstay Dubuque.

The accommodation is also in the vicinity of the Mississippi River. The Saint Luke's United Methodist Church is around a 15-minute drive from this Dubuque hotel.

Rooms

Some of the 75 air-conditioned rooms come with coffee/tea making facilities, and essentials such as an iron with ironing board and air conditioning. They are outfitted with traditional decor. You can enjoy views of the courtyard.

Leisure & Business

The Mainstay Dubuque goes the extra mile to provide guests with fitness classes to help them stay fit. There is an exercise room on site. For the convenience of business travellers, the property also has a business centre with a fax service available.

“Mainstay Suites Dubuque provides extended-stay accommodations with the advantage of kitchen-equipped suites, which could appeal to business travelers or families seeking a more self-sufficient lodging experience. Its pet-friendly policy and outdoor grilling areas add a layer of convenience, though location near Highways 20 and 32 places it slightly removed from Dubuque's downtown core. In my opinion, this hotel suits guests who prioritize practical amenities and don't mind trading a central location for space and value.”
