Holiday Inn Chicago North-Evanston by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Love being in Evanston and able to walk around downtown. Room was comfortable."

The Gem Museum Suites

8/10 Good

"Wonderful breakfast cooked to order 2 days, and a buffet on the weekends. Some rooms are smaller than others. I recommend a King size bed with a suite"

Super 8 by Wyndham Chicago IL

Hyatt House Chicago/Evanston

10/10 Excellent

"Showers are great"

House 5863 - Chicago Bed and Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

Graduate by Hilton Evanston

10/10 Excellent

"Such a great place to stay. I’ve stayed there several times."

Rodeway Inn Chicago North Shore - Lincolnwood

8/10 Good

"You get what you pay for. Room was clean. Be aware, no refrigerator, no microwave. My biggest complaint is that the ONLY power outlet (other than the bathroom) was on the bedside lamp! No wall outlets anywhere, except the one used for the TV, which was inaccessible as the dresser was in front of it. There is an IHOP less than a block away that you can walk too. Again, this was OK for the price, just know what you are getting in to."
