Top Illinois State Museum Hotel Reviews

Inn at 835 Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful old home / historic apartment building with solid oak furniture and trim everywhere. We stayed in the Dahlia Room, with a big claw footed bathtub / shower combo and a lovely view of the street. The hot breakfast is freshly made for you each morning. There are cold cereals and toast / bagels as well. There are Keurig coffeemakers in the rooms; we enjoyed having coffee in bed each morning of our stay. (Note that there is not daily housekeeping but if you need anything, they will gladly get it for you.) In the late afternoons, they put out cheese and crackers and lemonade for the guests. We'd stayed for two nights and got two free drinks and desserts at one of their restaurants downtown. Plenty of parking in the lot. It's a few minutes drive from downtown. We'd stay here again. It was a great experience - much more peaceful and spacious than a hotel room."

Northfield Inn, Suites & Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is always clean and staff is always friendly."

Ramada by Wyndham Springfield North

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and comfortable"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Springfield IL

8/10 Good

"Our three day stay at La Quinta was very pleasant. Just to the right of the lobby is a large area with ample seating available while enjoying a continental breakfast. Our room was quite clean and nicely decorated. I would recommend sink and tub drain screens to prevent any jewelry from accidentally going down the drain. Also the bathroom door would not stay open, a bit of an annoyance. Since the temperature was in the high 90s for most of the weekend, the air conditioning in our room was most welcome, although a bit noisy. La Quinta is easily accessible from the highway and is next to a Walmart. In addition there are many really great restaurants in the area. Parking at the hotel and multiple entry doors makes it easy to go in and out. I recommend La Quinta as a place to hang your hat, not just for a night, but for several nights."
