Enjoyed our stay immensely,(my wife)& I being of old school character, enjoyed the old generation of Ambience, old time feelFrom the lobby,to our quaint(clean)roomEnjoyed the old craftsmanship & decor of entire hotel

as well as the small elevator (that seemed to take 4ever to rise to your floor)when time is not of essence Not to mention the staff kindness & hospitality Next time in area this will be tops on my list of places to Stay & would highly recommend to friends/ family who would enjoy a visit back in timeTo the Good old DaysFeel It!

The Carleton of Oak Park is indeed a beautiful historic hotel However at over $250 a night completely disappointing Hardly no amenities or better yet any at all for this price

The hotel offers two room types, Boutique and motel Their website does not show more expensive boutique rooms have a view of either a brick wall or the parking lot, no gardens as depicted in pictures They did not have one functioning vending machine on all 4 floors Literally no where to purchase bottled water or any other simplicities No coffee station in the lobby, no continental breakfast at minimum Staff was cordial but looked at us like we were bothersome when we asked for nearby restaurant suggestions Nothing in immediate walking distance We had to ask the front desk to provide water Better off spending money at a Marriot

We celebrated our anniversary yesterday and stayed here We were surprised by the hotel with champagne and chocolate strawberries in our room,nice touch 😉 It was a lovely experience overall

Though we could imagine how beautiful the scenery is in the summerwe will definitely be back! The property is huge, pool is big enough to swim laps, there’s a hot tub too Gym is also very big There’s a cute restaurant that over looks the lakewe didn’t get to try it because we arrived after 3pm and it’s only open for breakfast and lunch but you can still get dinner later in the bar/lounge Clean, beautiful,relaxing property and staff was very nice as well

One of the most romantic hotels I’ve ever stayed at Rooms were clean, and a big plus is that they have windows that actually open and you can get some fresh air in the room The front desk was professional and attentive

The design of the building and the location give you that unique lodge feel, like you’re somewhere in the mountains of Austria Great stay, and will stay here whenever I’m in the area They are dog friendly and the prices are more than fair $25 daily pet fee and 60lbs weight limit

Marian Jones

Love love love the location The scenery was beautiful The rooms could have been cleaned

There was dust every where My niece room had a spider web in the corner of the room with a spider So that room hadn’t been cleaned in awhile The bathroom sink had mold or something around the faucet So i did cleaning myself Because staff said the rooms don’t get cleaned until the 3rd day

The rooms are very spacious, you get a full size refrigerator, microwave, small 2 burner stove top ( no oven), and a small table area to eat at There is no pool here The rooms were clean, the inside lobby was nice and clean, and the area is quite and safe

One of the best perks is the free hot breakfast and you have free use of their laundry area, but make sure to bring some detergent They have a small shop next to the front desk if you need something like soap, sofa, aspirin, etc I have to say a big thanks to the ladies at the front desk They are very nice and want to make sure your stay is enjoyable

Staciej Staciej

It’s in a beautiful area and the hotel is nice on the outside The lobby is also very clean and up to date The rooms and stairwell (which we saw well due to the elevator being down) are outdated and dirty

They should keep the elevator running to avoid guests seeing the filthy stairwell which have stains on the carpet and walls The front desk was a plus and they seemed to helpful and kind I would not choose to stay here again

Philip Bird

This is a less than exceptional Staybridge! My experience with the staff was actually quite good, hence the two stars When we checked in our AC wasn’t working It was pretty obvious, so I suspect we were put in a room in which the broken AC was well known, but maybe not

Anyway, the hotel was full, so no room swap, and we had night 1 of 4 with no AC, which was fixed the next day (again, no complaint with the staff) All the other reviews are spot on! There’s a weird smell, but it seems that’s to cover the smell of weed, which seemed regularity smoked on the back patio Breakfast was more like a Holiday Inn Express than a Staybridge Our room was cleanish, but the whole place seems icky One evening there was water running down the elevator, the laundry room had standing water and felt like a sauna All told, it’s the crumbiest Staybridge I’ve ever experienced (and I like Staybridge)

Wow! Very impressed with this hotel The staff is AMAZING! Everyone very helpful and went over and beyond to make my stay AMAZING! The breakfast was good and my colleagues enjoyed the drinks and food from the bar The hotel was extremely clean

I even saw an employee wiping down the pictures I was like “WOW” they are cleaning here Lol I will definitely return

Ayleen Valenzuela

Overall, an okay stay My family of four stayed for a 3 night stay Not once did we have our linens changed, room cleaned or trash picked up

Also, no fresh towels there were toys from likely the previous guests inside the room goes to show the room was not cleaned well beforehand There were red stains all over the carpet The amenities were why we stayed – Free parking, free hot breakfast, and the pool My kids enjoyed coming down and the selection of food It was convenient, but I would not come back based on service and cleanliness

Danijela Tomic

I booked a room a month before and I arrived at 4:30pm only to be told to wait because the room was not ready and that they were inspecting the room I waited half an hour with my husband and two children, we were tired and hungry after our flight When I asked why the room wasn’t ready when check in was at 3pm, they didn’t have a specific answer

After that, another woman came and said that she would give us a better room That was really nice but all I wanted is a room I booked and check in on time Breakfast is ok, nothing special Two stars only because of the check in process and because the housekeepers come every third day And after the third day they changed only one bed sheet and left the other dirty The location of the hotel is great!

This place is absolutely fantastic It’s so well designed, Beth is kind and friendly, but also gives you your privacy The house is so incredibly charming, and each little detail is anticipated

We stayed in the Jimmy Stewart suite, and from the towel warmers to the lovely bed linens, every inch of the room was relaxing and comfortable We will definitely be staying here anytime we come to Chicago or Oak Park

Great Stay; Great hospitality Absolutely loved the Suite & having access to full refrigerator, stove, microwave, coffee pot and complimentary teas, coffees The suite was clean

My daughter and I had a fully cooked mealKale greens, Shrimp dish over cilantro/lime rice, and salad The set up allowed for a comfortable, cozy staff Once insulation is improved, I can give 5 stars 🌟 Keep up the great work I look forward to trying out the 2 level Loft 😊

First of all, we dealt with Madison on the phone and at the front desk FANTASTIC representative for this hotel She was informative, cheerful, and remembered our name when ever we talked with her

A great asset for this business We were in town for a wedding celebration held nearby at Noon Whistle Brewery (another great place) and we hosted an after party gathering in our spacious, clean and wonderful room Kitchen suite had seating for 6+ without having to sit on the bed One of the nicest places we ever lodged athighly recommend

Rodney Hensley

We stayed 2 nights First night was quiet and our interaction with staff was friendly and pleasant Second night, the people that were staying in the room above us had a party with loud music

At midnight we ran the dishwasher to cover all the noise At 2am, the dishwasher shutoff and some of the people were outside talking and laughing I called the front desk to complain The music volume did go down but they talked louder and began to stomp their feet Fifteen minutes later I complained again and front desk said that it would take awhile to evict them Thinking things would get better, since they were being evicted, I waited 30 minutes before calling the front desk again When I complained the front desk seemed surprised I hear one person say, in the background, “they are still loud?” The person on the phone said, “we’ll send security” The music volume did go back up, but stomping of the feet and laughing reduced It was apparent the front desk wasn’t going to do anything Finally at 6 it got quiet When I checked out the gentleman at the front desk said security did go back at 3 (my final complaint) to the door but didn’t hear anything I will never stay at this hotel again My advice to anyone considering this hotel is to record the noise so management can hear it the next morning and prove staff and security didn’t do their job or run the dishwasher all night

I enjoyed my stay at the hotel Besides the delay in clean towels and additional post-pandemic charges added to the daily cost of the rooms, I would consider coming back againThe front desk team on each shift have been awesome and the continental breakfast each morning is fabulous

Compliments to the team that provide excellent meals and different options each morning for all guests (singles, married couples, and families)

Ansel Burch (Ansel Burch)

I stayed here for a friend’s wedding The room was comfortable and well appointed There were plenty of extra bedding materials available if someone wanted to use the couch for additional sleeping space

The continental breakfast was just what I needed after a night of dancing The only negative I would point out is that the coffee you can make in your room is really, really awful

1000and 1meal

The service at the desk is friendly and if you have any question you will get a friendly answer Thanks for thatThe question is… why I gave them only 2 stars?I got a large room with a lot of space

It was cleaned and everything was in it´s placeBut, from my perspective, when traveling internationally, price and standard don’t match for me It seems a bit old-fashioned and less modernAnother problem for me is the connection of the hotel to the local infrastructure Gastronomic establishments and shopping facilities can only be reached by own car or the hotel’s own shuttle service You are cut offThe hotel offers breakfast, which is included in the price I have never paid such a high price for a room in any part of the value with breakfast at the low quality level One gets full There is enough available But at the point my expectation was different, when I look at hotels of the group in Europe, for exampleWhich is really bad Plastic knife, plastic fork, plastic spoon Styrofoam plates and bowls All disposable dishes that are thrown away after breakfast Sustainability for the good of the environment completely absent Mountains of garbage are produced This is no longer in keeping with the spirit of the timesAll in all, an average hotel But with the above points for me just 2 stars

Jenny

Hotel is just off I55 Check in was quick Hotel has 6 floors and two elevators

There’s an indoor pool open 7a-10p, a 24 hour fitness room with free weights, two steppers, and two treadmills with TVs, laundry facilities Each room has a coffee maker, microwave, minifridge Ice machines are located on floors 1, 3, and 4 There’s a small area to buy alcohol, snacks, and some small necessities (ie ibuprofen, nail clippers) Our couch had a pullout bed so I’d assume they all do The beds were comfy as well as the linens and blankets The pillows were perfect! There was a sitting area outside with chairs, lounge chairs, and tables mostly surrounded by the pool building and landscaping with sun and shade Free breakfast with scrambled eggs, sausage patties, waffle maker, blueberry muffins, fresh fruit, yogurt, cereal, bagels toast, butters, jams, jellies, and Nutella! They had really good coffee too The coffee was only available from 4a – 12p 😕 This is a really great place to bring kids

I stayed a total of 19 days on a business trip Overall the hotel stay was good could have been better but the room was extremely dusty Room needs a good dusting because it was so build up and I order housekeeping twice my whole trip but nothing was done about the dust

Build up dust on my clothes and items Needs better cleaning or change filters However, the staff was friendly and happy I didn’t get a chance to order room service but the cookies are amazing!!! If you get a chance to stay here, don’t forget your free cookies😃

Deb L.

The bad: There is a half an inch gap at the bottom of my front door(see picture) The hotel is by no means full and they put us next to the elevators so that I can see and hear everyone and everything walking by The water in the shower/tub does not fully turn off and leaks/drips

We arrived late and didn’t notice they didn’t have a Do No Disturb sign so housekeeping barged into the room in the morning When I went to ask the front desk, they initially said it was our responsibility to make sure that we put a do no disturb sign if we didn’t want housekeeping They are not serving breakfast of any kind There weren’t any extra blankets or sheets in the room There isn’t a way to modify the temperature of the roomThe good: location is good and accessible Beds are comfortable Water pressure is high in the shower Plenty of parking

Leo

Location is convenient Not impressed with room cleanliness as there was trash in room from occupant before me Coworkers from my company stay here often but this may be the last time I stay

Many issues with loud occupants and smoking inside rooms The restaurant has great service and really enjoy the fact the Starbucks is inside From someone who stays in Hilton properties every week, there are better options around

Clean, comfortable room I got upgraded to a king suite Nice staff

Ideal location for me Just three things I was not happy about-Channel up/down on the TV remote didn’t work Had to manually put in channels Hard to do when you don’t know the channel numbers-Phone in room didn’t work-I was told pool was heated It was not

Cat 3

Pros: Comfortable beds, quiet, the pool is huge Showers had good water pressure The front desk guy that I saw the most was super nice and helpful

Cons: Things that were listed on the website were either unavailable or not true (no free breakfast, the pool is NOT heated, the restaurant is not open) If you have a lot of luggage and need to haul it in with a cart the entrance from the side parking lot isn’t accessible (there’s a step to get in the door) and the back parking lot is gravelI think a lot of the cons wouldn’t have stung so much if the price per night hadn’t been so high I kind of ate the cost because I thought I was paying for the amenties, but to get there and have to go to WalMart to get microwave breakfasts and dinners suckedI would only stay here again if the rooms were 100 or less a night, or if they got the breakfast/restaurant situation straightened out

Richard Willer

AWFUL place to stay including management I took pictures of my room that I will be posting on other social mediaThe room was not cleaned

An opened beer was in the fridge, safety bobby pin on the floor, tape literally holding some of the wall together, and the mirror when steamed stated ‘TRUMP 2021!’ I talked to the supervisor when he came in at 4pm only to say they will just take 20% off and can’t find any product to remove the sign on the mirror! Room preparation is a simple task Hotels accept damage deposits, so most issues should be an easy fix, just buy a new mirror or washing product then! Seems very lazy on staff

We are so happy to have experienced such kind hospitality as we did at the Residence Inn Chicago Oak Brook The hotel works out very well for us given the superb location close to the Oak Brook Mall and many awesome eating options More importantly, it has been a very cozy comfortable place for us to call home while there with spacious and sparkling clean rooms equipped with all the necessary conveniences

The staff is extremely warm, friendly and accommodating as well An especially worth mentioning staff member is Darlene who has gone out of her way to make sure our family has everything we need for a comfortable stay and has gone well above and beyond the level of service we have experienced before at any property The lady in the breakfast area too is so kind and friendly and always offered service with a smile! It is due to the hospitality we receive at properties such as this one in Oak Brook that people like me continue to choose the Marriott brand for my very frequent stays when away from home Thank you Darlene and staff for making our stay in Chicago so special and memorable!

I visited this hotel years ago and had a great time on new years eve Back then the hotel needed some renovations I came back on 05/10/2022

The hotel was renovated! The rooms have great furniture, excellent tvs and an overall modern decor The hotel lobby looks great and is functional The breakfast was tasty and hotDuring my previous visit, some years ago, we received attentive and professional service from Darlene To my great surprise she is still employed with the hotel Although I did not initially recognize her, I received a great level of service from her I reminded her that we visited years ago and was impressed with the new look of the hotelDarlene is so professional and quick to assist Keep up the good work Darlene, we look forward to visiting again soonEveryone we encountered was pleasant and professional too So kudos to the management

5 day stay The room wasn’t cleaned once I took out my own trash and disposed of my own dirty towels

They couldn’t give me new towels They couldn’t give me an extra blanketI tried to extend my checkout and was told I would need to pay for an extra night I was ready and willing to pay for the extra night They then retracted the offer, and I was forced to leave

Ryan McBurney

Crowne Plaza is an IHG hotel, which is why I stay there However, I while I honor the chain, I question the “pay for breakfast” option – the quality and selection of which is comparable to any other free continental at most other hotels The bar is adequately stocked – but not incredible, and the rooms are about par for their price

What saves this review from being 3 stars is Heather at the front desk She is kind and intelligent, super responsive and worthy of at least a raise and bonus Where the hotel itself was lackluster, she provided the shine and then more

Andreas Scholz

Hearing protection required!This hotel is located directly at the Interstate with paper thin walls and windows This was a hell of a night

To be fair, they have rooms facing the rear but said they were all sold outAt checkin we were told about the hotel breakfast The next morning we were asked to pay for it even though it was never mentioned before In addition the breakfast is average at mostThis was the one and only time I stayed there Only giving it 2 stars because the rooms were clean and the bed was decent

Jacob Payne

Nick and Kelley made my business trip much better Nick was always on top of it at the front desk and took care of everything I needed even though he was definitely doing double shifts and had every reason to not help me out, even when working on his birthday! After a long days work Kelley was a welcome sight at the bar/restaurant and took care of me and my coworkers and went above and beyond what I expected from this hotel These two along with the friendly front of house staff and shuttle drivers made my trip much more pleasant

Absolute and complete total nightmare!!! First, arrived in the evening for a wedding and was told our wedding did not have gift bags Yes, we did! Sleeper sofa has no sheets on it Tired and waited 30 minutes for sheets

The comforter on the bed has stains on itgreat! No soap in the bathroom! Glad I brought my own The iron does not work, thankfully brought my own steamer Not explained how rental car parking works, and that I need a pass and that pass is 5 dollars a day Given my folio at the end, get home to find an extra $15 on my credit card After three separate phone calls to the hotel and Marriott corporate I find out this is for the parking!!! I WILL NEVER PATRONIZE A MARRIOTT HOTEL AGAIN IN MY LIFE Ridiculous!!!!!!

This is our second stay here, and it has been wonderful both times! The rooms are clean and well kept (I am a stickler for cleanliness- and they check all the boxes) The bedding is always bright white, clean and of good quality (which is important to me), the hotel staff is polite and friendly, and the rooms are spacious and have a great layout, and all the amenities we need as a family of 4 The pool area offers an indoor/outdoor area, and hot tub which is fantastic This is our spot for anytime we are in the Chicago area

Been staying here fairly regularly for the past year Staff is very nice and rooms are clean and comfortable My problem is with physical plant

Elevators have been out of service constantly the entire time Why can’t a Marriott hotel keep them running? Maybe they need replacing? For the second stay in a row I am using the service elevator What if it goes down? My knees can’t handle 7 floors of stairs Probably my last stay here Shame, because other than that, it’s a nice hotel

Hotel is definitely dated, in need of upgrades for sure We had a few issues with our room (A/C went out, condensate line plugged and got the carpet soaked) however they relocated us to another room Staff was phenomenal with the exception of a front desk employee (a male) who got an attitude and acted like he wanted to go outside and fight

Want to thank Nathan for fixing everything!! He is good as gold

Ben Cerveny

Everything was very average or below in the rooms No fridge, just a “cooling box”, the toilet was put in crooked so the door would close in the tiniest of bathrooms and the whole place is from the 70s They are updating this year which is very needed

Also, the pool was closed even though the website says they have one The only savior is the bed was fairly comfy

Jack Oxley

The stay at the hotel was nice and quiet The food was very good as well as the service However, I pre-paid for a room through a third party company on 7/27 and 7/28 and then received an email from the hotel with charges for 7/28 for the room

I have been attempting to contact the accounting department to correct it several times leaving messages with no return or email correcting the additional charges This is bad customer service and wouldn’t recommend the hotel unless this has been corrected

This hotel truly is a hidden gem! We have been coming here for years with family and friends There is so much to offer—indoor/outdoor pool, golf, 2 restaurants, game room and more The hotel is just gorgeous, as well, and the staff is amazing! From the time you check-in, you feel welcomed

I have to give a huge shout out to our absolute favorite staff member, Willie, at the pool/golf bar He is amazing—hardworking, personable, efficient, and just an overall fantastic person! Such an asset to the hotel We already can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful views of the golf course and skyline Clean room and bathroom Comfortable king size bed

Modern 2 restaurants and bar Friendly and helpful front desk staff Booked 2 rooms 3months ahead of time and happy to be on the same floor a few rooms away from each other Only downfall is we did ask for room service but they did not refresh towels or clean bathroom like asked

Lucy, from the front desk is fabulous I cannot say enough about her kindness, her attention to detail and her genuine concern for creating a pleasant experience for guests She truly went above and beyond to ensure that I was taken care of after a canceled flight and a long day of travel

I spend about half the year in hotels and Lucy truly stood out by providing next level customer service Thank you!

Pretty nice place to stay, clean rooms, friendly staff, showers with water pressure, comfortable beds, I really have no complaints about this placeSome reviews have mentioned problems with sounds from the trainyard but they didn’t bother me at all in my room It was also really nice going walks on the sidewalk paths as opposed to the usual hotel experience of pure parking lot and nothing else

Misty Pranga

Had an excellent stay at this hotel We really enjoyed staying here and will recommend it to others My only complaint the entire time was that the pool was a bit cold

The staff were very friendly and accommodating at every turn Breakfast was great with lots of options for both hot and cold food I was very impressed they even offered almond milk for cereal and coffee

Leanne Clements

The rooms were clean and spacious The lobby, pool, breakfast area and grounds could of used some attention Unkempt to say the least! Breakfast was not very appetizing

We had an issue with our room door jamming and it was handled very unprofessional by the staff The clerk on staff was even using choice 4 letter words dealing with his frustration with the situation! The next day for our inconvenience, I was told I would receive an email with points enough for a free room for any Hyatt Place Of course, that never came Very disappointed!! I would not recommend nor go back to this hotel
