The hotel definitely needs a remodel but overall compared to other hotels in the area it was fine. Breakfast was ok. Bed was comfortable.

I identified Homewood Suites by Hilton Champaign-Urbana for hotel stay during my weekend in…read moreChampaign because of its short walking distance from Memorial Stadium. Other than that, I loved that it is a Hilton hotel, and the fact that it was lower in cost for Hilton Honors members as I am currently. My experience with the receptionist working behind the desk was nothing less than professional. Since my room was already booked through Hilton Honors, the only thing check-in consisted of was a verification of my information, a briefing of what the hotel offers, and giving me my room key. For your information check-in starts at 3:00 PM and ends at 12:00 AM! And check-out ends at 12:00 PM! I must say that the hallway felt never-ending as I walked down it to locate my room; and the carpet had the softest cushion like feel. After locating and entering the room, I said to myself "Oh my God" once I took notice of the kitchenet area which appeared so elegant! It came with a full-sized refrigerator, dishwasher, a sink, a built-in electric cooktop, plus cabinets that came with dishware, and pots & pans inside. Now the furniture in the room gave the room a homely like feel which made me anticipate my stay with Homewood Suites. It was those things that totally charmed me out of my panties, tehehe. There were liquid products by Gilchrist & Soames Zero% inside of the shower attached to the wall. Seems like hotels have completely dealt away with the mini shampoo, bath soap, and conditioner products that made really great travel hygiene additions. Along with those notable things inside of the room, it met my cleanliness standards. I had no issues whatsoever getting comfortable in the king-sized bed during my stay as my head was engulfed in-between the comfortable pillows. While utilizing the shower, I really enjoyed the water pressure; its soothing pressure made me feel very cleansed during each usage. It was wonderful toggling with the spray patterns, with the addictive feel of the pressure hitting the inside of my ear, tehehe. Other things the room came with that I noticed were an iron, ironing board, an extra comforter, and a few lamps with electrical outlets. And the Wi-Fi internet was easy to connect to and not once did I have any connectivity issues with it during my stay. Homewood Suites, as expected, appeared immaculately beautiful! Leave it to me to forget my bathing suit, hindering me from swimming in the pool onsite even though I knew about it as I booked the room. It was great having a fitness center onsite because I was in dire need of a workout. And I was impressed to see the number of dumbbell weights, decent looking workout machines, and even a peloton fitness bike within. Served from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM, it was a relief having the complimentary breakfast because I did not have to worry about finding a restaurant in the morning. And I was highly satisfied with the quality of what was presented. I would surely book with Homewood Suites by Hilton Champaign-Urbana again due to my experience with it because the hotel met my comfort needs, and I loved that its location is within an accessible distance of things of my interest in Champaign-Urbana. ~ Good vibes coming your way ~ Thomas G

The prices are quite reasonable for being in the center of downtown, walkable to pretty much anything you want to get to and the convenience of a fairly large parking garage makes it easy to manage things for an event or wedding. The rooms are quite a surprise, fairly spacious with furniture to relax on. The bedding is a little firm for me but I do like the quality of the linens that were put on the bed. I was also very happy with getting plenty of shampoo, conditoner, body wash, towels, toilet paper, and anything else I needed. The breakfast dining area is nice and comfortable and a bit more elegant than I've seen at a lot of other hotels. The amount of selection could be better but the quality of the items presented was pretty good and definitely sufficient to meet my needs (champaign is a great dining town, you should be trying everything in the area!). Overall, great stay here and I'd definitely stay here again.

They initially gave me a room with no bed (likely the living room area for a suite) and they immediately fixed the problem. Once I got into my room, it was relaxing and wonderful. The king rooms have a walk in shower and the twin queen bed rooms have a bathtub/shower combo. I mention this as those traveling with kids might prefer the tub option. Every room has a mini fridge. Traveling with little ones here is nice because they can offer a microwave in your room if requested. Made a big difference for us traveling with a young one. The gym is small but they do have a peloton bike among other equipment like free weights and other cardio equipment. Complimentary breakfast has warm savory options like egg burritos both with and without meat. They also offer oatmeal, fruit, yogurt and bagels with plenty of refreshments. Parking is free and easy to find. There's also a complimentary shuttle to take you to places on campus if you have no car. There are also bikes at the hotel to get around. All in all, we enjoyed our stay as did our guests for graduation.

But imagine my surprise when I checked the credit card bill to find we were charged $1215!!!! for those 2 nights. And I'm assuming the room was rented out again for that night!! Because students were coming back apparently that allows for hotels to gouge visitors to Champaign! We have been Hilton Honor members for a number of years but this is absurd!!
