"Staff was super helpful and friendly. The room was very clean and the kitchen was good. However I booked a non smoking area room and signed a paper for that but unfortunately it smelled like cigarettes in my room. The couch had the smell and it was very strong all around not pleasant. There were fights in front of my door at night sometimes and someone did knock on my door at 2 am and left randomly making me feel unsafe."

Top Valparaiso University Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express and Suites Portage by IHG

8/10 Good

"First room no air conditioning. Second room refrigerator was broken."

Tru By Hilton Valparaiso

10/10 Excellent

"I discovered this hotel while browsing Hotel.com, and I’m really glad I did. The property is brand‑new, having opened in June, and it shows — everything feels modern, fresh, and exceptionally clean. The staff were warm, welcoming, and genuinely understanding of the challenges many Lake County residents were facing with the recent storm and widespread power outages. My room was comfortable and thoughtfully designed, and the bed in particular was fantastic — easily one of the most comfortable I’ve slept in recently. I do wish the room had included a microwave, but that was a small inconvenience in an otherwise great stay. The complimentary breakfast was a standout, offering a wide variety of food and drink options that made the morning easy and enjoyable. The only drawback for me was the price; at $187, the rate felt a bit high. Still, the overall experience, cleanliness, and friendliness of the staff made the stay worthwhile."

Hilton Garden Inn Chesterton

10/10 Excellent

"the staff was super nice!"

Best Western Indian Oak

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast was great and we enjoyed the lake view. Didn’t get a chance to do much else because of the storm and the loss of electricity. That was the only reason we left early. We would definitely stay there again."

Furness Mansion

10/10 Excellent

"We had a comfortable stay at the Furness Mansion. Very close to Indiana Dunes National Park and also nearby points of interest. The unit is spacious with free use of washer & dryer located at the entrance of the building. The only thing negative is the response time from the hosts. I sent a couple of messages and never received a response. My inquiries were not critical but a simple response would have been nice as a courtesy."

Waterbird Lakeside Inn

8/10 Good

"Felt the property could have been very good. It has a super cool setting and rooms over the water was fun. However the room was not so good. It needs better cleaning protocols."

Days Inn by Wyndham Portage/Indiana Dunes National Park

8/10 Good

"Just hope they have the pool repaired the next time we stay. This is twice that the pool was not in working order while we were there."

OYO Hotel Portage I-94

8/10 Good

"The OYO is a very functional property for the price. The property is oriented so the road noise was not intrusive, at least in my assigned room. The room was serviced daily and items functioned as designed, with the refrigerator able to keep ice cold. There were extra blankets on a shelf. The ice maker on the second floor did not work, but there was one working on the first floor. They include a minimal breakfast of cereal or yogurt, sticky bun, and/or a banana. There were two towels that were very thin. Plenty of hot water, although the control was confusing and much water went down into the tub portion. Illumination was via lamp rather than can lighting. Good parking. I saw but did not use guest laundry. AC worked well and beds were fine. I did not use the TV. The hotel is within reasonable driving distance of businesses in town, and for my purposes, sections of the national park. If you are on a budget and want an adequate hotel, the OYO is a good choice. It could be improved by servicing the ice machines, wasting less water in the shower, and perhaps bigger towels."
