Holiday Inn Chicago O'Hare – Rosemont by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"So easy to get to the airport, would recommend and stay there again any time I need to fly out of O’Hare"

Hyatt Place Chicago/O'Hare Airport

2/10 Terrible

"We weren’t able to use the airport shuttle. Upon arrival, we would have waited at least 30 minutes. Upon departure, we had a booking and ticket for the 5am shuttle. The hotel booked 23 people into a shuttle that seats 7. I was told that most of the people were from the La Quinta, not even the Hyatt. Staff was completely unhelpful and uncaring. A filthy foot pad from a shoe greeted us in our room and the rest of the room was clearly given only the most basic cleaning. Go elsewhere."

Clarion Inn Elmhurst - Oak Brook near I-88, I-290, I-294

6/10 Okay

"I only give a 3 because of the lack of clarity of the condition of the hotel. It was clean as far as bedsheets, no dirt, etc... but when we went in it wreaked of smoke. I understand they can't control people being jerks but it was rough (maybe because I'm sensitive to that stuff due to asthma.) The rooms do not block sound, I wasn't expecting a 5 star hotel or anything, but we ended up needing to move rooms due to it. The staff were amazing and moved us to a better room to which we are exceptionally grateful. The staff was the best part of our stay. Kudos to them but shame on the owners for the condition of the hotel. Its an older hotel. Which I understand, but the wall paper was peeling in both rooms we were in. The upgraded one too, which if I had paid for (upwards of 500 a night) I would have demanded a full refund and not stayed. The room itself was good and comfortable, but the furniture was busted up. Stuffing coming from the leather couches. Shower door sounds like its about to break. Floor is lifting in many spots. Again, funky smell and peeling wall paper. Maybe 250 a night? Idk. I choose this because of the 8.2 overall rating, but in my opinion this is a 6.5 at best. Again, the good things were good. Primarily the staff (Sat. morning (6/6 front desk lady was the best!) I know I'm going to get a response from the hotel, but if its the generic copy and paste I've seen. Don't bother please. Good for the price but pictures are deceptive of the condition."
