Top Elgin Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Chicago North-Evanston by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic desk staff and great location. Some issues with peeling wallpaper and fogged windows in our room. I really wish the hotel still had a functional pool."

Comfort Suites Chicago O'Hare Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Good stay, honest staff. They allowed us to check in earlier than usual and when we left, my son had forgotten his fanny pack. We came back 5 hours after we had already checked out. Came in to ask about it and a staff member had grabbed his fanny pack and put it in a plastic bag. We got it back with all his money. Not a dollar missing. Thank you and your staff for a great experience!"

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Chicago O'Hare Airport by IHG

8/10 Good

"Hotel is in a convenient location close to the airport, plenty of food options and highways. I appreciate the multiple hotel entrances (two in the back- key required). The breakfast is a strong point. Wide range of options and always enough seating. The food serving area is kept very clean. My room had some issues. Upon first arriving on Thursday, I noticed the deadbolt didn’t work. I asked front desk if it could be fixed or be moved- all rooms booked so they put in a maintenance order. When I checked out on Sunday the deadbolt still didn’t work. Very disappointed. Another issue is the toilet seat would not always stay up. Be advised you have to ask for housekeeping, and when I did only the towels and bathroom was cleaned; the bed wasn’t made up or changed. Good hotel for the price, but deadbolt issue means I probably wouldn’t stay again."
