Top 10 Hotel Aurora Hotels

It is not very good, and business travel is recommended. The hotel’s Christmas setting has a snack, and a carriage ride around the hotel, unlike other hotels that have a whole tree. The most comfortable place is that you can easily see large forests and Illinois skylines by the window, beautiful!

The hotel is very old. There are few floors in hotels in the north and many rooms on each floor, so you have to walk a long way to get to the floor. The room was very clean and cleaned in a timely manner.

I love this hotel. What makes this hotel fantastic is the employees. Sam at the front desk was extremely helpful, but actually everyone that works at the hotel is great. The breakfast is fantastic especially the eggs. I had an egg white omelette with a lot of fresh vegetables. The service was great also! The rooms are very nice and spacious.

Honest precise Review: Hotel Staff/Greeting - Fine Pleasant Room- OK -Couch is hard/small not comfy. TV is great! Fairly large and allows for stream services if you have your own subscription. Nice touch. Bed is OK. Shower OK Breakfast - OK Conclusion It’s clean. Pleasant but just OK. Have tried another hotel in area much better. I believe they are trying to offer a nice experience and in a sense it’s not bad. If they changed the couch to more relaxing I believe that would help a great deal. You literally cannot sit on the couch and allow your body to rest in it. It’s very stiff and small as far as sitting.

Our family stayed here the first day of our family vacation & we were spoiled by how clean, modern & great this hotel was... i wish the rest of the trip could have compared to this HIeX! I chose the hotel due to the proximity to downtown and was hoping for at least something average & this hotel far exceeded those expectations - we thought it was fantastic & would absolutely stay again. Rooms were extremely clean, nicely sized with a small fridge with a freezer - an awesome extra touch - and the shower was AMAZING - kinda funny to say but the shower was the highlight of the stay. :) Location is perfect for any outing/event downtown. Literally a 5 minute walk to the Paramount with a lot of restaurants within a block or two as well. Staff was very friendly, complimentary breakfast buffet was perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Stay here with confidence that it's a great option for anyone. Our only concern was a train just off the backside of the hotel but either it doesnt travel at night or we never heard a peep. We did have a front-facing room so maybe that's a request to ask for just in case.

I stayed here a couple years ago and it went smoothly. This time, not great. The GREAT: the staff was very friendly and courteous and attentive to our needs. The room was clean, all good in the room. The GOOD: The breakfast was an average hotel hot breakfast - eggs, sausage, waffles, fruit, yogurt, coffee, juices, etc. Did not use the pool or hot tub but looked fine. The BAD: At breakfast there were maybe five kids (looked about ages 8 to 14) all in the breakfast area with only swimsuits - no shoes, no shirts - hovering all over the waffle station. They continued to get breakfast and (more or less) take over the breakfast area. It wasn't the fact they were hovering over the food and eating in there without shirts or shoes, but the fact no one in the hotel staff spoke up to them. Loss of appetite after this. We saw a woman (who appeared to be pregnant) wearing an ankle bracelet wandering the hotel - I'm assuming she was a guest but not sure. Hallway windows open for no reason - mid March so not all that warm. Faint smell of smoke in the hallways. The fire alarm went off twice in our two night stay. First on a Saturday afternoon (during an afternoon nap) the second went off around 1:30am. Everyone was forced to go to the lobby. Didn't seem to be any sort of emergency. The firemen that showed up had no sense of urgency and almost seemed a little perturbed to be there - maybe a regular occurrence? I contacted Marriot and they refused to compensate me financially or with any points. Will I stay here again? Probably not. Would I recommend? I'd simply say - beware. Maybe I just caught them on a bad weekend. Happy Travels....
