I was unable to stay in the room, there was mold on the ceiling. The bathroom was very dirty, there was lots of spider webs and dust on the walls and floors. the walls are paper thin and you could hear all noise above and beside you the hotel claims to be a non-smoking hotel, but our upstairs neighbors were smoking marijuana, and the smell lingered into our room. The bed frame was coming apart overall a shame because the place has great potential. The staff was very friendly and welcoming and were very apologetic about the conditions of the room, but they were unable to offer a refund because I booked through Hotels.com.

The staff was great. There was funk smell in the first room we were assigned to and the front desk associate gave us a free uograde to a much more beautiful room. Which, we REALLY appreciated.

The views!! What a gem on the lakefront. Cool retro building that’s updated and sparkling clean inside. Kind helpful staff and nice room with an awesome view of the lake, all at a reasonable price. We missed the restaurant due to holiday hours, but excited to check out next time!

This place has pros and cons. Pros: very fast internet speeds, quiet for most of the stay unless your room is next to someone who is loud (in my case teens watching cartoons all night long at full volume), direct beach access, great local breakfast spots under 15 mins away, friendly staff. Cons: never did house keeping my whole stay (5days), shower kept getting clogged, shower also was cold until water ran for a few minutes, no breakfast, tiny toilets for someone big and tall

This is one of our favorite locations. The restaurant is nice, but also there is a lot of quick bite locations in town, or a grocery store if you want to picnic at the beach. We Love the private beach access, but often do go to the state Park beach as well. The only think missing lately has been the morning coffee! We used to be able to get coffee in the lobby in the morning, last two trips we had to drive to a coffee shop to get coffee as staff was not making coffee in the morning anymore.

I had reserved two rooms, one had mold up and down the walls in the bathroom and we needed to be moved to a different room. You can tell the hotel has went under a recent remodel but it truly is a outdated hotel. They serve breakfast at a high price of $20.00 per guest and it's something my six year old could make. The only thing about this hotel is the view or the water and the beach that makes it what it is. Also, the staff were very respectful and nice.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 Illinois Beach Hotel I had such a wonderful stay at Illinois Beach Hotel! The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing, with beautiful views and a welcoming staff. We ate at Nolan’s and the food was absolutely amazing flavorful, fresh, and served with great hospitality. It truly made the experience complete. Whether you’re visiting for a getaway or just stopping through, I highly recommend checking this place out. You’ll leave full, happy, and refreshed! 🌊✨
