Bed is good for me but spouse said didnโ€™t get a good night rest. Hotel seems old but lovely decorated decor in lobby and public areas. Hallway is super narrow - 2 regular size people canโ€™t fit if walking side-by-side. Bathroom has hair on floor from previous guest. Toilet bowl didnโ€™t look so clean. Toilet paper and facial tissues are super rough!! Ugh .. had to get from our car supply to use. Breakfast is average and areas & food are stocked well, looking well-kept by the staff.

I asked for some kind of rate reduction but was told hotel not authorized because I used Expedia. My room had bare exposed electrical outlet (the one between beds and right beside where my small grandkids were sleeping! The television did not function, room had a musty odor. Pool was amazing and the overall staff response was above acceptable. My kids were asleep before I found the safety issue with the outlet or I would have insisted on moving room or leaving for a different lodging option.

I had high hopes for this hotel but was greatly disappointed. To start with I felt like I was inconveniencing the lady at check in, she didnโ€™t give us any info about amenity locations, breakfast times or locations etc. Our room was not even ready at arrival (an hour past check-in). There was a very loud party next to us that had no respect for anyone but themselves. We had to call maintenance to get the tv to work (missing a remote). Hot tub was luke warm at best, pool was way overcrowded with unsupervised kids. We had no hot water regardless if we showered at night or in the morning. Overall, I am super disappointed and would not recommend this hotel:(

Lesson learned.

The location of the property is convenient and the place has potential, but the room has a bright spotlight that shone into the window all night, the blinds were difficult to operate, the toilet did not flush, there were water stains on the ceiling, there were no USB charging ports on the room like they said at the front desk, and the bed and linens need to be replaced. Needless to say, I didn't get much sleep.

Huge disappointment not at all as advertised

Very poor service that began right at check in. Was told โ€œWeโ€™re not sure if your room is ready yet.โ€ It was an hour after the check in time I was told this.. the room was dirty and not what I had purchased months before. Scuff marks on walls, holes in walls, stained pillow cases. When politely bringing all of this to the front desk clerks attention, I was simply told the manager had gone home. I gave them the room key back and left. Iโ€™m now working with Hotels.com to hopefully get refunded. Do not stay at this hotel. Itโ€™s a letdown in hospitality.

Beautiful, Historic Hotel with Modern Updates

Beautiful hotel located just minutes from everything in Bloomington-Normal. The hotel is going through a remodel to no doubt upgrade rooms and some amenities but they are doing a fantastic job of keeping the original aesthetic that makes this hotel so charming. We stayed in one of the updated rooms and it was nice. While the hotel features remain unchanged (hopefully) the rooms are being updated for modern needs. No wall decor as of yet. Comfortable beds and pillows. No noticeable exterior noises from either the streets or other residents. The bathroom does not have an exhaust fan, which made them very steamy after showers. The general manager and both front desk staff I interacted with during my stay were examples of what hospitality should strive to be: extremely friendly, accommodating, and responsive. We are visiting Illinois Wesleyan as a possible college for one of my kids. If they decide to go there, the Chateau is where we will stay whenever we visit.
