Clarion Inn & Suites Evansville Eastland Area

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean. Staff bent over backwards to help."

Hyatt Place Evansville

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, easy parking and the most friendly and helpful front lobby staff weve encountered in our travels. Room was comfortable and clean, breakfast had lots of healthy and tasty choices. Amazing fresh baked cookies! Two minor inconveniences, only one USB out-put for charging (charging block needed) and no microwave."

Spark by Hilton Evansville Downtown

8/10 Good

"At first the first observation was not great hidden spots and corners of areas was nasty and filled with crud. I reserved 4 rooms for family traveler but was room was completely disgusting smell of sewage and moldy. Room was immediately changed with no issues. The night staff was polite and accommodating just the overall internal appearance or conditions was not was we expected"

Howard Johnson by Wyndham Evansville East

10/10 Excellent

"It was absolutely amazing actually am thinking to going back hahahah"

Spark by Hilton Evansville East, IN

8/10 Good

"This was a nice property. Bed and pillows comfortable. Room acceptable. Good healthy breakfast options. First place I've stayed that had that kind of options available. (Yogurt, hard boiled eggs, fresh fruit. There were also muffins, bagels, oatmeal, cereal options) Negatives, I was not a fan of the sink area being as soon as you opened the door to the room. Trying to get ready and if door opened, you're exposed to the whole hallway. There is a fitness center. Has free weights, which was great. However, there's no bench to be able to use. Staff was acceptable, not overly friendly, but not ugly and mean. Just there doing their job. Overall, would definitely stay again."

Bally’s Evansville Casino & Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great for an overnight stay!"

Suite Stay Evansville

10/10 Excellent
