I had the good fortune to spend a weekend at this hotel while I attended a wedding at the University. The service at this hotel is amazing! The front desk people and manager, Derrick, are eager to do anything they can to accommodate you. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the Valparasio area!

Our rooms were reserved a month in advance by my brother. We traveled 11 hours to get there. I am a widow and was there with my sister and brother in law to celebrate my brother and sister in laws 50th anniversary who lives in Indiana. We were to have rooms side by side but I got sent upstairs. That... More

Hello Eleanor, I am glad that you found our rooms to be comfortable and that you would stay here again! It's always nice to see familiar faces. I am truly sorry about not being able to keep you near your family during stay. I am also sorry about the noise levels throughout the hotel. Thank you for taking the time... More

Just a hidden treasure of a good, clean, well-run hotel with a manager who gives a damn. Best bang for the buck. Convient to highways to get to Chicago or the South Shore Railroad ( an electric inter-urban), as well as East. Beats Chicago rates and, if you like, you can access Chicago via either expressway, tollway/skybridge, or rhe old... More

Upon arrival we were exhausted and the front desk girl Ashley went above and beyond for us upon our arrival and our entire stay. It's a nice change to stay somewhere where hospitality is #1. Great stay, the only complaint I have is, while the staff was friendly, I felt there wasn't enough staff. There was not a breakfast attendant... More

The Country Inn & Suites was great for the long weekend we had in Valparaiso. The staff was very professional, courteous, accommodating, and pleasant. The rooms were up-to-date, clean, and quiet. We were right next to the elevator, but couldn't hear it when in our room. The room had plenty of space for two double beds. Nice desk, extra chair,... More

Derek and all his staff were great. The breakfast was good but there never seemed to be an attendant there. I like this brand but we are fairly new to it. This is the 2nd one we stayed at in a week and we will do so again as our vacation continues.

We stayed here for two nights on a family trip heading out west. The rooms were comfortable, but, in need of some updating and cleaning. The carpet in our room was heavily stained. The exhaust fan (belts/bearings?) in the pool area were very loud and kept squeeling continuously. The breakfast was average. They provided porcelin plates/coffee mugs and metal flatware... More

I had a pleasant stay in this property (mid-week). The location is great with easy access to major roads and to Valparaiso University. The room was spacious and well-appointed with a large closet, iron and ironing board. The bed was comfortable with good pillows. Breakfast was lackluster but sufficient. The main plus was the very nice employees. Each person I... More
