Hotel restaurants have a bad reputation for being overpriced with average food. But that’s not true for Hilton Des Moines Downtown! They activated Hummingbirds to try their trendy, new restaurant menu and share about it on social media.
about Hilton Des Moines Downtown

results
The Hummingbirds raved about the food and drinks that they tried. Many commented on the great downtown views, too! Happy hour was a hit with both food and drink specials - perfect for a weeknight after work or before a concert or event.
It’s a common misconception that hotel restaurants are only for guests (with exceptions for all-inclusive resorts). Multiple Hummingbirds shared that piece of information in their post caption to help break down the invisible barrier.
