Top Bloomington Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Bloomington

10/10 Excellent

"I loved staying here. It was clean, convenient, and welcoming. The location is perfect for downtown, the B-line, and all things IU. Our room was amazingly quiet even with the Lotus festival going on outside. The parking was so convenient-attached to the hotel and easy in and out as needed. The restaurant is fantastic! Great food and extremely friendly and efficient service. I highly recommend it."

Fourwinds Lakeside Inn & Marina

10/10 Excellent

"The pool was very nice, the only bad thing to say is the state park staff at the booth on the way in was very rude."

Holiday Inn Bloomington-University Area by IHG

"The staff in the restaurant is above helpful & amazing!!!"

Best Value Inn

8/10 Good

"I was a little hesitant about staying here - but for a budget friendly motel on a parents weekend, with limited choice, I have to say, i was pleasantly surprised. Most important for me was the cleanliness of the room - it was very clean, modern and enough space. The bed was comfortable, the staff / owners were super friendly. Its right next to a Pancake place so could roll out of bed and have a decent breakfast. About a 30 min walk to Kirkwood which was perfect for our stay. It got the job done - and cleaner than some of the other chain hotels that i have stayed at in Bloomington!"
