A hidden Gem in Decatur IL

We stay in Decatur frequently and don’t know by we never stayed here before. The lobby is gorgeous & the staff super friendly. The free breakfast is probably the best hotel breakfast we’ve encountered in our many travels. Our room was clean and comfortable. The facility has some wear on it but it was still a fantastic stay.

booked and pre paid for a king room with sofa. I was not given that kind of room as they said they were sold out of them. odd part is the parking lot only had 6 cars, not sure how they could be out. my only option was to take a 2 queen room that would have cost me more. front desk staff refused to call the manager at 9:45pm so we could figure out a solution to the problem was only offered to take queen room and manager would let me know what the rate would be in the morning lol. NO lots of nicer hotels priced the same in the area.

We were so impressed with the decor and cleanliness of this Hotel. It reminded us of the classic style of hotels with all the beautiful wood and crown molding. The rooms were very comfortable and clean. We truly were very happy with our stay. We will definitely return the next time we travel to see our family in Clinton.

Greatest off the beaten hotel ever

I have been here before. This is one of the best kept secrets in Decatur, IL. Other than the Lincoln Square Theater which was built around 1915 and host many classic rock concerts. They have a lounge with food and drinks. It is a awesome place to stay.

The people at the desk, cordial and accommodating. When I walked in the hotel seemed very clean. When I got to my room, my room was spotless. The bed was very comfortable, and the towels were unbelievable, very soft and plush. I got a great sleep that night. In the morning, the breakfast was very good and the ladies working the breakfast were very accommodating. When I’m in the area. I will always stay at this hotel.
