Top Evanston History Center Hotel Reviews

The Gem Museum Suites

8/10 Good

"Very friendly staff. In a great neighborhood. Loved the room with kitchenette and sofa along with a private bedroom. The hotel decor was fascinating with antiques from abroad. The spacious lawn had beautiful flowers. Overall very inviting atmosphere!"

House 5863 - Chicago Bed and Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"The neighborhood was absolutely beautiful. Great area to stay, the property was lovely and charming."

Super 8 by Wyndham Chicago IL

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a very basic hotel room and a convenient location. It was clean, the staff is friendly and they had the average continental breakfast. Very conveniently located, close to the beach ,walking distance to Jarvis Square and the train. Nice quaint neighborhood."

DoubleTree by Hilton Chicago - North Shore Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"It met our expectations overall, including the clean room, the breakfast (very complete) parking, and especially the very friendly, attentive staff."

Heart O' Chicago

8/10 Good

"Well, the room was a clean, no frills room. As far as the "continental breakfast" goes, I can't give my input because I had to leave before it was served. It was in a decent neighborhood ( I walked 15 minutes from the subway stop at 10:00 PM to the hotel, and felt perfectly safe) The only thing that needs to be said is that the hotel is located on a VERY BUSY corner, so as a result you can hear the vehicles outside pretty much all night long AND you get serenaded quite often by the comings and goings of a nearby fire station."

Rogers Park Cozy 1 bd, 1 bath unit. Gated parking.

10/10 Excellent
