Top Illinois Railway Museum Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Chicago Northwest-Elgin by IHG

8/10 Good

"Front desk staff lady wasn’t the nicest"

Comfort Suites Elgin Northwest

8/10 Good

"The location was perfect! It’s within walking distance to several restaurants and the grocery store is a short drive. The breakfast was pretty good overall. Different each day and kept it refilled. The rooms were fairly clean and spacious. The one negative was that you can hear everything through the walls and in the hallway. The doors close hard if you don’t guide it."

Extended Stay America Suites Chicago Elgin West Dundee

10/10 Excellent

"B"

Baymont by Wyndham Rockford

"Family stay trying to be close enough to Chicago but not in the city. Would stay here again, the room was clean, spacious. the area was convenient and safe. Breakfast was good."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Chicago - Hoffman Estates by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"I visit Hoffman Estates frequently due to son/wife/grandkids living in the area and I am a pretty faithful customer to Marriott. However their price was ridiculous for one night so I chose Holiday inn express. Staff was so nice, cheerful, available and my room was huge, clean and very modern. This will definitely be my new go to when visiting the area."

Woodspring Suites Loves Park Rockford

8/10 Good

"The hotel was pretty good. We came here for my friend who is legally blind, and Thelma in particular was the best staff member that we talked to she was very patient, understanding, and willing to help. Needless to say she was the reason why we had a great time."
