Top Buffalo Park Forest Preserve Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place Itasca

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room, a lot og free parking, good breakfast"

Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport

10/10 Excellent

"The convenience factor was most important to us which was perfect. The staff was friendly. The room was clean and neat. Restaurant on site off the lobby. If I could change one thing… Large, heavy roller bags do not operate easily on the thick carpet to the elevators."

The Westin Chicago Northwest

10/10 Excellent

"I was surprised by this hotel. A very well-arranged, clean place with welcoming people. I highly recommend it!"

Wyndham Garden Elk Grove Village/O'Hare

10/10 Excellent

"Flight cancelled late night at O’Hare. While I wish we’d picked an airport with a shuttle closer in, this one was priced well, had staff at desk that helped pre-book a cab ride back at 5 am, and were super helpful. Big clean quiet rooms. (Altho the noisy window/floor AC models but we were able to run that on fan so it didn’t keep loudly cycling on and off). Also had coffee pot in room ready to go. And cabbie was ready early. All good."

Motel 6 Arlington Heights, IL - Chicago North Central

8/10 Good

"Just ok"

DoubleTree by Hilton Libertyville - Mundelein

10/10 Excellent

"This place was great! Staff were super attentive and kind and my room was very clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again :)"

DoubleTree by Hilton Chicago - Arlington Heights

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay, nice hotel, if you have the app faster check in!!"

Hyatt Regency Deerfield

8/10 Good

"Everything in all was good, the issue was the prices for the convenience market they have in the lobby. $21 dollars for three 16oz waters and 2 small bags of chips."

Hyatt Place Chicago/ Schaumburg

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is conveniently located, and the rooms are surprisingly large, comfortable, and very nice\. From a room and location standpoint, we were very pleased with our stay\. Unfortunately, the complimentary breakfast leaves a lot to be desired\. The powdered eggs and turkey bacon were definitely not highlights\. After four days, I can confidently say the best part of breakfast was the Jif peanut butter\. The front desk experience could also use some attention\. Communication was difficult at times, and the same employee seemed to be working when we arrived, when we went to bed, and again when we came down in the morning\. I’m not sure if she actually sleeps there or if the hotel is simply understaffed, but her attitude certainly reflected someone who may have been working far too many hours\. Overall, if you take the breakfast and inconsistent front desk service out of the equation, this is a lovely hotel with spacious rooms in a great location\. With a little improvement in staffing and breakfast quality, it could be an excellent place to stay"
