Top Elkhart Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Elkhart

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice hotel, friendly staff. Good stopping spot as we traveled home from Cedar Point."

Fairfield Inn & Suites Elkhart

10/10 Excellent

"Thank you to all the front desk staff for their helpfulness. I think Rebeccah was the name of the person I interacted with the most in the evenings - super helpful and kind - plus Gayle in the daytimes. And Tammy the housekeeper. Thank you ladies for a great stay. My family and I have stayed here several times before and would happily stay here again anytime!"

Woodspring Suites Elkhart

8/10 Good

"This a clean, basic hotel that seems geared for longer term stays. We were just there for 3 days. The front desk is only manned from 9 a.m. - 10 p.m. However, there was someone on call to check us in for our late arrival when we arrived. The room was clean and provided what we needed, though amenities are very limited."
