Top North Dunes Nature Preserve Hotel Reviews

Hampton Inn & Suites Chicago Waukegan

10/10 Excellent

"Great clean place"

Howard Johnson by Wyndham Waukegan Great Lakes

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was as expected."

The Stella Hotel & Ballroom

10/10 Excellent

"At check in, it would have been helpful if the staff had given us an update on the restaurants and what and when they were open. I had to ask about the roof top bar/restaurant only to be told it was closed. On Labor Day weekend?? Disappointing."

Illinois Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to relax."

Hotel Gurnee

8/10 Good

"The rooms have been recently remodeled and the property is clean. Nicest place to stay in Gurnee for this price point."

Hampton Inn Chicago - Gurnee

8/10 Good

"The staff and breakfast was excellent. Although, while we stayed, the park was closed during the weekdays, it was very close to 6 flags. They had an outside beautiful pool area and easy walks to restaurants. There is a fantastic ice cream shop next door! The only issue we had was our bathtub/shower drain was clogged and the toilet seat was loose, but they did switch us to a nice new room."

Days Inn by Wyndham Waukegan

8/10 Good

"I did not realize there was no elevator in this hotel. We placed on the third floor. We are in our late 60s and thankfully can handle the stairs plus our luggage but I wanna make sure other travelers are aware of this because it would be difficult for many people. The breakfast was adequate. The coffee was good and available 24 hours a day. The room was very nice and so was the bathroom which we were told was newly renovated. The beds were comfortable. The linens were clean. The carpet clean.The TV size was good and we enjoyed the Paramount+ channel. The staff was very friendly at the front desk each time we came in and out."
