What guests think

At Courtyard Chicago St. Charles, travelers often praise the friendly, helpful staff, quiet spaces, and a convenient location near shopping and restaurants, though some note aging areas and occasional maintenance hiccups that affect comfort.

Rooms are often described as dated, with mixed bed comfort and occasional maintenance issues or noise from adjacent areas; while many find them comfortable, a few reported pests or cleanliness misses. Facilities get mixed notes: a tiny indoor pool that can be cold, sporadic gym or ice machine problems, and pleasant lobby or courtyard spaces, but an on-site bar/restaurant that is often closed. Dining is well liked when available—especially breakfast—but hours can be inconsistent and there is no complimentary breakfast, which some guests missed. Set expectations for older rooms and variable amenities, and you will likely have a smooth stay.

In the St Charles area on business for 2 nights. The rooms were nice, and the gym equipment was solid. My favorite part was the breakfast. Juice, coffee, bacon, eggs, potatoes, & toast. It was $13 and well worth the money spent. I love a made to order breakfast that's made with love. I'll definitely stay here again.

The staff was not friendly upon our arrival, had to wait around 10 minutes to check-in, since there was no attendant at the front desk. The pool is small and ICE COLD, we had mentioned the pool was cold to the staff and no changes were made. I was not made aware at check in that the entire hotel was undergoing carpet/furniture cleaning during my stay. At 8am in the morning the following day of our arrival, housekeeping slid a note under the door with the notification that a third party service would be entering our room to clean the carpet and furniture. I found that extremely unprofessional; I should’ve been notified upon check in. The snack bar/breakfast was not open once during our stay. On our day of check out (check out time being noon), housekeeping attempted to enter at 9am. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend.

It would have been nice to have a small bar where you could unwind at the end of the day. I have stayed at many Courtyards with a bar.

Hotel is clean, modern, cute. Have laundry facilities for guests, climatized pool and a beautiful bar space at front desk. You have stores, restaurants, gas station, everything just walking around! Lady at the front desk was very nice. Totally recommended

Bathroom shower was a little dirty. Window needed to be cleaned better on the outside. Fitness Center had a broken TV and the remote control was on the floor with the batteries out of it. Looked like some ceiling tile broke and there was white pieces on the fitness center floor. Ice machine was not working on the third floor.

Good location. Freindly staff. Their elevator was pretty slow but we were on the 2nd floor so it wasnt too much of a hastle to take it. The room was clean for the most part (some minor stains on the couch). the Water took a minute or two to heat up and bathroom felt a little outdated but the bed was very comfy. AC worked well. A pleasant place for my 1 night stay!

Two thumbs up for a very quiet hotel stay with good (Starbucks) coffee available in the lobby in the morning. Staff was friendly and helpful. A tiny, indoor pool is perfect for smaller kids. Like a lot of hotels, this one is suffering from a lack of staff so the on-site bar and restaurant were closed during my stay. If that is important to you, call ahead to see if they will be open during your stay.

The property had multiple problems from the poor service received from the staff right from the beginning, the front desk associate was very unfriendly. It seemed like we inconvenienced her for staying at the hotel. This was one of the worst experiences we had for a Marriott hotel. The room had bugs on the carpet and the AC kept turning off.

I was here one night for business. I was put in a handicapped adjoining room which I was not happy about but I did not say anything. I wanted to switch rooms but I was tired. The next day I discovered bed bug bites on my leg. I have had bed bugs before and knew exactly what they were. Without a doubt I got them in that room. I called the hotel and they said they would tell the manager. I called three times that day and got no real answers. Finally spoke to someone in charge and they said they’d look into the matter and call me the next day. I never got a call the next day and finally called myself. I spoke to a very unsympathetic manager. He said they examining the room and found no evidence. Essentially my word against theirs. I understand bed bugs can happen anywhere. But to not even receive an “I’m sorry” is unacceptable. I am now worried I brought them into my home.

This was the best experience I have ever had at a Courtyard Marriot. My friends and I just stayed here for one night as we passed through on a road trip. Paula at the front desk was such a gem! She made us feel so welcome. She gave us water and offered suggestions of things to do and see. She walked us to the courtyard in the back and just showed true hospitality. The rooms were nice, the lobby was clean, and the location in St. Charles was great, but Paula is really what made the stay stand out. Thank you so much!

It has been a nice relaxing weekend. We have enjoyed our stay, the hotel is tucked away from the traffic streets and it is nice and quiet. The only things so far that have been a bit of a challenge were the bathroom door is heavy, loud and it isn’t even with the door frame (we have this problem at home) The other thing was when we came back to the hotel after midnight there was a security measure that we didn’t know about. My husband figured it out.
