Top hotels in Midtown

I Hotel And Illinois Conference Center
The hotel is lovely, especially the common area. It has a nice breakfast in the morning. The rooms are fine but look a little dated. The front desk people are nice.

Hyatt Place Champaign-Urbana
Great location but our room was "worn" . Room 733 TV broken, armoire door broken, only stayed one night so did not report to hotel. Hopefully they address these.

Best Western Plus Champaign/Urbana Inn
The whole property was really clean! I was really impressed with the staff, especially the cleaning crew. The room was great! It even had great water pressure in the shower. I was really impressed with the equipment in the gym. Breakfast had some great options and I really appreciated the Nespresso ...

Hotel Royer Urbana Champaign, Tapestry Collection by Hilton
Room was clean, breakfast was good. Restaurant was very cold and music playing was not to my liking (infinite jazz loop) but food and coffee were very good.
