Top Illini Union Rec Room Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Champaign North, IL

8/10 Good

"All good except spot light right out our window and no way to pull curtains over sll the way to block out the light."

La Quinta Inn by Wyndham Champaign

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice room clean and quiet. Missed breakfast by 10 minutes. Close to the interstate and restaurants. Felt safe and bed was comfortable"

Yugo Guest Suites

8/10 Good

"Very clean room, looked just like the pictures."

Hotel Royer Urbana Champaign, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

8/10 Good

"The hotel was very well maintained. I loved the free parking. The restaurant breakfast was outstanding. The free water bottles given at check-in was very nice."

I Hotel And Illinois Conference Center

8/10 Good

"Very close to the University of Illinois Champaign campus, big advantage. (Went to visit my child who is going to school there. Stayed one night.) Free parking was a plus. The free breakfast was good, not expectational. (The breakfast burrito was not that flavorful.) Helpful staff, clean and comfortable room. Had a good night sleep. This was my second stay at the hotel. Will stay here again."

Studio 6 Suites Urbana, IL

8/10 Good

"Good deal on a clean comfortable bed and hot shower. Otherwise room is relatively spartan but TV and A/C worked fine. Staff is helpful and seems to care that you are happy. Coffee in lobby in morning (Styrofoam cups need to go IMO), vending machines with a few snacks and drinks. When front desk is not staffed you get a motion-detecting "live remote clerk in a box" that was a bit unnerving in that it starts talking to you and captures your face image along with other info, Box person can process tasks like check-in and spit out the room key, although mine would not work so the local person who showed me to the room got that fixed pronto. All in all it was a good deal for me and I would stay there again."

Holiday Inn Champaign by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Good stay"
