Located on 17 acres in Ames, Iowa, off Interstate 35, the Gateway Hotel & Conference Center is an ideal stop for families, sports fans, researchers and academicians to Iowa State University just one mile away and the ISU Research Park next door. Owned by the ISU Foundation, the Gateway stands near museums, galleries, performance venues and the university's 14-acre Reiman Gardens, which attracts a host of visitors with its 11 gardens, more than 40,000 annuals, conservatory and butterfly house. At least five golf courses await not far from the hotel.
For major meetings, university events and social occasions, the Gateway offers nearly 23,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor conference, banquet, ballroom, wedding and catering facilities. Surrounded by more than 400 trees, the hotel showcases native grasses, cascading waterfalls, intimate reception gardens, walking paths, authentic John James Audubon prints and commissioned photography throughout the building. The Gateway also offers business and fitness centers, wireless Internet access, indoor pool, spa tub and sauna. Guests can dine in the privacy of their rooms during certain hours or join other guests in the hotel's American bistro, Audubon's.

This eight-story Iowa State hotel features 187 guestrooms and 10 suites with prairie-style décor, complimentary high- speed Internet access, 27-inch cable/satellite TVs with premium cable channels, video-game consoles, and pillow- top mattresses. Microwave ovens and refrigerators come upon request. Executive rooms feature bathrobes, glass-block showers, books, magazines, high-speed Internet access, CD players, and floor-to-ceiling windows that open.
