"We wanted to visit Starved Rock State Park but couldn't find anywhere to stay really close by. So we decided to expand our search and we're so glad we did! The Tiskilwa Inn was such a treat (and still only 40 minutes from the park). The house was built in 1848 and you can still see some of that history, but bathrooms, kitchen, etc. have been completely updated recently so you get the best of both worlds. Ric and Jeremy were wonderful, welcoming hosts and the breakfasts were delicious (as were...

The Plainfield Inn

It's a renovated historical building but still has the original character and charm, which I really liked. Super easy check-in/out process, very clean. Owner is very communicative & organized. Good sized fridge & Keurig in the room with a microwave to share in the foyer area, so that was nice. Cute little downtown area with restaurants, shops & a little park. We felt very safe. Property has a tree swing out front that my granddaughter thoroughly enjoyed. We were visiting the museums, etc in...

This is the only hotel I stay at when I'm visiting my family!! The staff is always so friendly & courteous!! The rooms are very clean & comfortable. The price is reasonable compared to the other hotels in the area & I feel that this hotel is just as good as they are, if not better! There are several restaurants in the surrounding area and a few shopping centers. The one place I would recommend for any one to go see is Starved Rock State Park! I grew up in this area & spent a lot of time there....

10/10 Excellent

This is by far the best hotel in the Princeton area. It is usually the most expensive too, but it’s completely worth it. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The breakfast is great and replenished often. The lobby is rustic and really comfortable. It’s right off the highway and near fast food restaurants and gas stations and Walmart is a sneeze away as well. I always stay here when visiting family in the area and will continue to do so as long as they are...

My husband and I stayed here while visiting our daughter in the area. The room was very clean and everything was updated and nice. The bed was comfortable, the hotel was quiet and peaceful; everything was well lit and very safe. We didn’t eat the breakfast, but did do a walk through of it and it looked and smelled delicious and other visitors seemed to be enjoying it. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We’ll definitely be staying again when we visit in the future!
