Top Civil War Museum Hotel Reviews

The Inn on Sheridan

10/10 Excellent

"everyone was so nice and answered all my questions and breakfast was really good "

Illinois Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of our favorite locations. The restaurant is nice, but also there is a lot of quick bite locations in town, or a grocery store if you want to picnic at the beach. We Love the private beach access, but often do go to the state Park beach as well. The only think missing lately has been the morning coffee! We used to be able to get coffee in the lobby in the morning, last two trips we had to drive to a coffee shop to get coffee as staff was not making coffee in the morning anymore. "

Delta Hotels by Marriott Mount Pleasant

10/10 Excellent

"Room was nicely decorated, spacious & clean. Plenty of free parking & close to food options. 2 bottled waters in room was appreciated since I’ve been to other hotels where that’s not provided. Only thing I would fix is hotel was not pulling up in Apple Maps as I was leaving O’Hare airport on the drive. I had to pull over and find the actual address & enter that in manually. "
