Top Matthiessen State Park Hotel Reviews

Grand Bear Resort at Starved Rock

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was wonderful! I will highly recommend."

Days Inn by Wyndham Oglesby/ Starved Rock

8/10 Good

"Clean and pet friendly . We didn't have breakfast there so don't have a review"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Peru Starved Rock St Park

8/10 Good

"The hotel was clean and staff was friendly (when they were at the desk). When we checked in and checked out - no one was there - had to wait for a desk clerk to show up or call for someone on the phone. Although not necessarily the fault of the hotel, it was a very noisy stay with loud neighbors (who appear to be residents and not travelers), and children running up and down the hall yelling and blowing a whistle - all until 1 a.m."

Best Western Oglesby Inn

8/10 Good

"I came to the hotel with a group of 6 people we got three rooms and arrived pretty late in the evening. The person at the front counter was very accommodating for our needs and requests. We enjoyed the breakfast there was something for everyone one."
