Top Winthrop Harbor Hotel Reviews

Sonesta ES Suites Chicago Waukegan Gurnee

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely stay. Enjoyed the room. Very friendly staff. Always helpful. Breakfast was great!!!! A few ants in the kitchen but it was just a few."

Sonesta Simply Suites Chicago Libertyville

10/10 Excellent

"I chose this hotel because it is "pet friendly" - and then we ended up staying there without pets! We loved it anyway, mainly because they have the FRIENDLIEST, MOST HELPFUL STAFF MEMBERS I've ever met, on every shift 24/7. If you're staying for a long time, they have a pristine laundry facility and a cool "vending" area for larger items such as blenders, mixers, etc. Rooms are clean, with full kitchenettes and a large fridge. Only thing to be aware of is that there are no options for two beds to a room. We were comfortable with two people - one in a recliner, the other in the bed."

Days Inn by Wyndham Waukegan

6/10 Okay

"Pros: Location, Shuttle Service, Desk Staff (Jaime) Cons: Room odor, slamming doors The location of this hotel is an absolute gem. It’s incredibly close to everything you need—a Walmart, Target, Walgreens, Jewel-Osco, Starbucks, gas stations, Gurnee Mills, and Six Flags are all within seconds to 20 minutes away. Most importantly, the naval base is only about 12 minutes out. The facility and our room were clean overall, though the hallways and our room had a noticeably damp, tangy, smoky odor upon arrival. We bought an air freshener which took care of the issue. We also found a few stray hairs on the bedding, but Jaime at the front desk was awesome and promptly provided replacements. He was incredibly hospitable, as was most of the staff (with one exception at the front desk, Diane). Breakfast was okay, but the only major downside was the doors slamming throughout the night—and they slam loudly. The absolute highlight was the hotel shuttle service. It is well worth it! They arrived early (around 0600) and ran constantly. Because of their access, the shuttle bypassed all the heavy traffic leading up to the base gate and dropped us off right in front. Even though we had VIP seating with parking right behind the drill hall, taking the shuttle was still the better, stress-free choice. The hotel 100% served its purpose. It’s highly affordable, right off the highway if you want to see Chicago, and perfect if you are in town for graduation. You get good value for what you pay."

Days Inn by Wyndham Sturtevant / Racine / Mount Pleasant

8/10 Good

"The room and bathroom were cleaned well. However I could tell the carpeted floor wasn't clean as it smelled slightly like stinky feet and bleach ( no I didn't get down and sniff it 😆 the smell was in the air. I also found a brown pill on the floor and a Bobby pin..."

DoubleTree by Hilton Libertyville - Mundelein

8/10 Good

"There was no restaurant for dinner. There was no lobby coffee on the weekend. The shower leaked, and was not repaired on the weekend. The motel did not appear to be a successful business since all the salons were unused. I only needed 4 nights of sleep, and it was fine for that."

Wingate by Wyndham Gurnee

8/10 Good

"My daughter and I stayed while visiting Rosalind Franklin University. We checked in around 8 pm and the lady at the desk seemed bothered by our late arrival. Our room was clean and the bed was comfy, however our AC unit had to stay on constant fan in order for the room to stay cool. Breakfast was your typical hotel choices. It was good, but the pancake machine had to be refilled only an hour into service. It took awhile for someone to come and refill it. Overall our stay was great and these items aren't truly that big of a deal in the big picture."
