Great Wolf Lodge Illinois

8/10 Good

"Went with my grandson and had an amazing we had such a great time we will be back again "

Hampton Inn Chicago - Gurnee

10/10 Excellent

"The 3 rooms we had were extremely clean and the beds were comfortable. It’s awkward to close the door to toilet and shower area, but at least sink is separate for handwashing and teeth brushing in case you’re showering. Plenty of restaurants nearby and a small but lovely movie theater along with six flags. Breakfast was decent with many variables, my only complaint is please replace the broken waffle iron, because it just slows EVERYTHING down for service with only 1 waffle iron working for a lot of weekend guests. The outdoor pool was clean and tastefully appoint with multiple loungers. The staff was great. Will return with my family again……"

Baymont by Wyndham Gurnee

8/10 Good

"Overall, pretty good stay. Front desk staff was nice when I checked in last night. Would be nice to have actual body wash for bathing. Also would be nice to have toothpaste and toothbrush provided in room. Was some kind of bug in the bed, but just the one. Flushed it down the toilet. Was not a bedbug or a cockroach though."

Hotel Gurnee

8/10 Good

"The stay was decent. When we arrived late at night, we had to wait several minutes for someone to even come out to the desk. It was annoying since we were tired from traveling. We are a family of 4 and stayed in a room with two double beds. There were 2 wash cloths, 3 hand towels, and 3 bath towels. There was one tiny (single-use) bottle of each: shampoo, conditioner, and lotion. The pool was nice, but the pool towels were gone by the time we got out of the pool and needed them. The free breakfast was great for our kids, but not good options for the more health-conscious adults. Make your own waffles, yogurt, packaged muffins, and all kid cereal (froot loops, cocoa pebbles, etc). We were in Gurnee to go to Great America and do some shopping, and for that, the location is ideal."

SpringHill Suites by Marriott Chicago Waukegan/Gurnee

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel itself and the room was very clean, very friendly staff. We stayed here for my son's Navy bootcamp Graduation, it was about a 8-10 minute drive which was nice. The hotel also offers a free continental breakfast which was convienent for the morning of the graduation."
