Hampton Inn & Suites Valparaiso

A modern Hampton Inn & Suites building with a well-lit entrance and a large tree in front.

Location: Valparaiso
Review: Eight 1981 VHS grads used Hampton Inn & Suites as our home base for a reunion weekend. The staff was very pleasant and accommodating, the breakfast was very good and plentiful, and the rooms were exceptionally quiet and comfortable. The beds and pillows were so nice that my body was convinced that it rested at home. It was a lovely weekend.

Holiday Inn Express Valparaiso by IHG

A modern hotel with a covered entrance, multiple floors, and a parking area with handicapped parking.

Location: Valparaiso
Review: Hotel was great. My only suggestion for imorovement would rest with removing the musty smell from the room. Maybe it was because it was so hot outside, I don't know. Other than that everything was perfect., by Mom of Two, July 24, 2016, rated 10/10 Excellent

The Brewery Lodge Hotel

A two-story brick house with a gabled roof, surrounded by a well-maintained garden with various plants and a lawn.

Location: Michigan City
Review: Our stay was just great, and the facility was wonderful. However we had serious problems with the Hotels.com website. The website and booking process were deceptive and difficult. Our efforts to communicate with hotels.com did not get results and we were not able to find out why our credit card was charged more than advertised. We will go to the Brewery Lodge Hotel again but we won't be booking through Hotels.com. Final score 5+ for the Brewery Lodge Hotel 0 minus for Hotels.com., by Anonymous traveler, June 5, 2019, rated 10/10 Excellent

Best Western Indian Oak

A modern building with large windows and balconies, a wooden deck, and a calm lake.

Location: Chesterton
Review: Great location with plenty to do in the area. The purpose of our trip was to visit Indiana Dunes NP, which is very close to the hotel. The hotel is located on a lake which added to its appeal. The general areas of the property were well kept and clean as was our room and bathroom. The breakfast was a typical hotel breakfast. I would definitely recommend this hotel when traveling to the area, and I would stay here again., by Edward, June 2, 2025, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: We stayed in suite 23. Its an upper level room but the stairs were quite manageable. We received a text when our room was ready which was before check in time. The room was very cozy and clean. This suite has a jetted tub 😀. The property manager Pete was very nice. We were only in the area 1 night but I waa amazed at all the things to do in the area.

Best Western University Inn At Valparaiso

A Best Western hotel with a sign indicating it's a University Inn at Valparaiso.

Location: Valparaiso
Review: Stayed here five days and was very pleased. It's also close to downtown Valparaiso and many restaurants - including Starbucks which is just down the road. The room was spacious and clean. The hot breakfast - which is included- was plentiful. They rotate between biscuits and gravy, eggs and sausage. You can make your own waffles. There is yogurt, hard boiled eggs, tea, coffee, OJ, milk and lots more. The only drawback is that we were on the 2nd floor and we could smell breakfast cooking in..., by Pamela, October 21, 2015, rated 10/10 Excellent

Review: This Comfort Inn highly exceeded my expectations. It has recently been remodeled and is modern, clean, and new. The beds are very comfortable and even have both a soft and hard pillow.
