Closed for renovations- unaware

The hotel was closed for renovations. I was never informed of the closure. I only knew about the closure when I arrived at the hotel on the day of check in to see a hand written sign saying “closed for renovations.” Every phone number was disconnected to the hotel. Very unprofessional and caused a lot of confusion and concern.

We liked the easy parking and the bed was comfortable. Staff was very friendly. Check-in and check-out was seamless. There was 2 red stains on the carpet in our room (hoping it was nail polish). Wish they had a restaurant on-site.

A good choice for staying if attending an event at the Civic Center; a short walk. Our room was fine, and there is plenty of parking. I would stay here again just for the easy walk to the arena. No breakfast or amenities to speak of, but I was aware of that when booking.

Mark Twain is looking rough!

This could've been a really cool place to stay. Unfortunately One down and Dirty. Our check-in was excellent. Our service was excellent however it did not overcome the accommodations.

Hotel closed and I wasn’t notified!!!!

Made reservations 3 months ago. Arrived at 10:30 pm at hotel to find a sign on the door saying it was closed for renovations! I was not notified of this. Had to find another hotel room for my 3 night stay. Tried calling and nobody answered. Totally unacceptable and unprofessional business practice. How do you close your hotel and not notify people who had reservations??? Unbelievable!!

A formerly iconic hotel, well located in Peoria. Better condition even last year during renovations. The renovations seemed to have been halted. I would love for the Mark Twain to be revived, but do not plan on staying when in town next year.
