Top Alma Mater Hotel Reviews

Country Inn & Suites by Radisson, Champaign North, IL

10/10 Excellent

"Great spot! Great Location. Friendly staff. Very helping. So much food on the Breakfast table."

Drury Inn & Suites Champaign

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the hotel. Options for breakfast was great! Very comfy rooms."

Hyatt Place Champaign-Urbana

10/10 Excellent

"I love staying at this location is very clean and in a very good location staff is very friendly courteous and helpful 10 out of 10"

I Hotel And Illinois Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"The Staff were great and the room was clean."

Holiday Inn Champaign by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was very friendly. My only critique is the showers are older and the caulk is peeling."

Studio 6 Suites Urbana, IL

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very nice and was able to resolve a few issues we had-such as our key not working more than 24 hrs and 3rd towel disappearing from our room after being cleaned. Do know that policy has changed and there is no more "do not disturb" tags so the staff is coming into your room each day. This was annoying as anything personal (like computer/paperwork) had to be locked up in the car with us when we left, our 3rd towel disappeared everyday, and the trashcan I had in the bathroom always got put back in the main room. But if you are looking for a clean, large room with a comfortable bed to visit your University of IL student that is cheap, this is your place."

Yugo Guest Suites

8/10 Good

"Nice suite with kitchen and clean bathroom. Looked really nice and new. But the execution on comfort was lacking. Whoever purchased the cheapest beds and the worst cheapest synthetic tiny pillows should be fired. Was excited for this idea of having a kitchen until I found 2 knives, 2 spoons, 2 plates, a pot, and a fry pan but no cooking utensils/no cooking spoons or flipper. Pretty sparse. Spending the dollars to ensure a good comfortable bed and pillows and that you can actually make use of the kitchen would have helped with getting return customers. Cool new space but execution is the pits."

TownePlace Suites by Marriott Champaign Urbana/Campustown

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was excellent. Offered hot and cold options and staff were on point refilling. This was a summer trip so I am not sure what it is like on a football weekend. Pool is cool and no hot tub, but kids would be fine with it."
