Top Illinois State Fairgrounds Hotel Reviews

Inn at 835 Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"Likes - the property, breakfast, evening cookies, friendly and helpful staff. Nice location and vibe. Free parking a plus. Dislikes - low toilets"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Springfield IL

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent property. Definitely playing above its weight among hotels in the price range. Front office staff was outstanding. Property and rooms very clean. Only possible issue might be for short folks. Bathroom sink was several inches higher than norm, even for typical higher bathroom counters."

Drury Inn & Suites Springfield IL

10/10 Excellent

"This was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. The suite was clean, spacious, and comfortable. There was a lot of storage space, and parking was convenient and mostly plentiful (we had to park around back one night, but we got a space close to the back door). We didn't have time to take advantage of breakfast or the food and drink specials in the evening. The only negatives, and I had to be super nitpicky to come up with any, are (1) there is not a light near the full-length mirror and (2) navigating the TV remote was not very easy."

Route 66 Hotel, Springfield, Illinois

6/10 Okay

"To be honest, this hotel has some character to it, which was nice. The staff was nice and courteous, and tolerant of a traveler who was very tired, and just wanted things to be easy. When I arrive at 10:00 PM, there was literally no restaurants open except for Domino’s Pizza, who wanted to charge me $40 for a large pizza, and deliver it two hours later. In a room that had a jet tub, there were only two towels… The entire room was tile, and there was no TV in the bedroom. I liked the hotel, and the motif of route 66, and if I was in a better mood, I would’ve had a good time there. So part of this problem with me, and part of the problem with the actual property. I would actually stay there again!"

Hilton Garden Inn Springfield, IL.

10/10 Excellent

"Having a handicap accessable room, was not set up for this label. There was a tub with one security bar and was in a good location, but none in the tub. The towels were on a shelf in the tub and set 6 feet high. I am 5' making it nearly impossible to reach safely. Same with the shampoo and soap dispensers, they were set too high for me to reach easily. Everything else was good, but the tub/shower was truly a fall hazard for me."
