The Presidential Inn is located just off Interstate-80 at Exit 254 less than one mile south of historic downtown West Branch, birthplace of Herbert Hoover, 31st President of the United States and ten miles east of Iowa City home of the University of Iowa. The Presidential Inn is handy to two regional airports: the Eastern Iowa Airport-Cedar Rapids 32 miles to the northwest and the Quad City International Airport in Moline, Illinois 53 miles to the east.
