Holiday Inn Chicago North-Evanston, an IHG Hotel

People at the desk were thoughtful in some areas but I did get a snide remark from the desk clerk because I booked with booking.com. I was given a good parking rate because I am a member even though I hadn't booked with IHG. Maybe that was an apology for being snippy with me.

The room was quite big, with a very comfortable chair and an office chair as well. There are plenty of places to study, read, watch television and whatever else you like to do. The bed is comfortable with excellent pillows. One of the best things is that this hotel does breakfast, which is not always the case in the US. For $10 you get a very good buffet with better than average bacon, sausages, and orange juice. There's also plenty of fruit, including berries. This was a great bonus. Situation-wise, the hotel is right in downtown Evanston and very close to the Metra and Purple Line.

Perfect position for my job, easy and convenient car park option, clean and comfortable rooms. Very quiet.

Pillows and bedding were awesome!!! Location is superior!! Loved the view from my room. Desk staff kindly refunded one night of garage overnight parking which my daughter didn't use. I had stayed there about 15 years ago when it was a Best Western and it is 100% better now!!!!!!!!!

Central location in Evanston, easy parking with reasonable price, comfortable beds and pillows, big room, regular housekeeping, close to the Northwestern University.
