Sophia
Property was very easy to check in and put. Parking is right next to the hotel which is a plus. It was clear someone came to vacuum and pick up our room but one day we were not brought back any trash bags or towels. Property is right next to train station and many food options.
Bryan
Very nice property
Stephen
Large comfortable room. Excellent friendly staff.
Shannon
The front desk staff was great. It was clean. But I had to ask twice for our shampoo and conditioner to be refilled.
Haibing
Conveniently located close to many cafes, restaurants and shops.
viendi
Clean room, convenient public transportation location
MARIA
It’s good but not a 9.2/10. Maybe and 8.5
Juliann
Everything was good except the A/C was weak
Imran
Great location and quick 1/2 hr access to city via green line. clean rooms but carpets need cleaning
Jennifer
This is such a cute hotel and I LOVE the neighborhood it’s in, walking distance to restaurants, Target, CVS, and three bookstores! It’s across the street from a good coffee shop, and the transit center was half a mile away so I was able to easily hop on the train to go directly to the airport. The room was comfortable and spacious with very powerful air conditioning. I’ll definitely be back!
Sierra
Friendly staff, beautiful lighting in the large bathroom. The restaurant attached to the hotel as fantastic and had great happy hour specials! Walking distance to the metro station.
Kevin
Three stars would be a fair assessment. The hotel is in a great, convenient location. The staff is great. Otherwise, it's pretty basic/no frills. The rooms are pretty standard, nothing fancy and a bit worn. The beds and TV are what you'd expect from a two star hotel. The bathrooms are pretty nice though.
Karen
Property was beautiful and well maintained. In a very nice, walkable area
Christopher
Great hotel and staff and next to the train station.
Steven
The hotel is classic and clean in a very nice part of town.
Tyrome
Older hotel in nice area. Well maintained and clean in a nice area
Jeffrey
Great location property and staff
Stuart
Excellent stay, safe, clean, quiet, comfortable for what it was, close to the L to get to the city, only strange thing was the bathroom door was a sliding window door with no lock.
Loree
Room was clean.
Patricia
Bathroom and bed were visually clean but carpet was stained and there was a strong mildew smell in the bathroom.
Lisa
There is honestly nothing negative to say about
Andre
Comfortable, clean, and well located. Town is really nice, close to transit
LAURA
Beautiful hotel, great location and comfy beds! Parking was about a block away but is free and felt very safe.
Eric
Beautiful hotel.
Ashlee
Super clean. The air conditioning worked amazing!
Jennifer
The Carleton at Oak Park is in a lovely historic building. The rooms are clean and not extravagant, but not barebones, either. The art on the wall showed historic happenings in Chicago and was far more interesting than ordinary hotel art. We were offered help with our bags, but we did not need it. We were able to park in a lot half a block away with no problem. There are two restaurants in the hotel building and great options in the neighborhood. There is a train stop a block away, and the trains are audible, but this did not bother us. The upstairs neighbor stomping around at 5 AM, on the other hand, was quite disruptive. If you are a light sleeper, bring earplugs. All in all a really pleasant, comfortable and delightfully unpretentious place to stay.
michael
Only gripe is bathroom door doesn’t lock. Otherwise comfortable standard stay and the area is quiet and great
Jay
Wonderful neighborhood!!
Nathan
Safe, close to Chicago, quaint!
Ellen
Lovely old hotel and great location.

Emma
Classy and great location. We were only in town for a night but enjoyed the bar downstairs after getting back from the city late. Also free parking was nice! Would recommend
Andi
The room service was okay. They empty the trash and cleaned the bathroom but they forgot to clean and change the dirty glasses from the amenities. Tables were not cleaned/wiped down properly.
The area around the hotel is great. It is close by to restaurant, grocery stores (Whole Foods, Aldi, Target, etc). It is close to metro train so it is easy to travel anywhere around Chicago.
Staffs are super friendly and helpful. Free designated parking!
We will come visit this hotel again!
Hope the hotel includes free breakfast in the future.

Great staff, beautiful room and totally enjoyed my stay.

This place is a definite throwback, which I found super cool but the kids in my party were pretty sure was haunted- lol. The lobby is very cool, kinda Disney Tower of Terror vibes (minus the spiderwebs and dust!!). The music definitely added to the vibe. I loved it. But, you have to haul your luggage down a few steps to get to it, and then back up some more steps to get to the elevators so if you are older or don’t have a young man in tow it can be a bit of a struggle. We were able to get an easy parking spot in one of their various lots around the block.
The room had some character— which I really like. But the walls are pretty thin so you hear a lot of bumping in the night (could it be ghosts? Jury’s still out).
It’s super convenient to the green lines which we took into the city daily, and the attached bar, Poor Phil’s was a fun spot to grab a drink and watch the World Cup. Not far up the street there are lots of boutiques and dinner spots. My only complaint would be the lack of breakfast options. I’m talking NOTHING in the hotel or the two restaurants in the building or across the street or anywhere near. So keep that in mind if you’re a breakfast person (my kids are). Overall neat and interesting little spot.

Place is very nice but needs an update
Bethany
I would definitely stay here again! It was in a very quiet neighborhood and I felt safe as a woman traveling alone. My room was large, had a kitchenette, large bathroom...it was clean and was well maintained. The feel-like temp was over 100 during my stay and the AC worked great. The hotel is very charming and well decorated. They have free parking which is a huge plus! They have a restaurant on site, but I did not have a chance to try it. It looked very nice, though. It's a block away from the green line, which I utilized to get to Wrigley. They lock all of the exterior doors at night, which gave me extra reassurance. Overall, I had no issues!
Mariano
Great hotel experience
Fancae

Donald
This was a very well maintained older hotel with a lot of character. Best to stay on the top floor as the floors creak when people are walking.
Tze
Room was clean and the hotel area is very nice and in quiet neighborhood. Feel safe and comfortable walk around and explore the area. Staff was helpful. Our first room air conditioning was too loud and felt outdated, staff assisted to switch to different room that more modern and quiet. Overall experience is positive, will re-visit next time.
Kristine
Clean room. Great staff. Quick check in & out. Easy parking.
Laura
We had a wonderful stay! The room was big, clean, and incredibly comfortable. We especially loved the wee kitchenette! We also came in completely exhausted so it was a real boon to have a restaurant on the ground floor.
Thu
Very nice place close the downtown Oak Park and convenience to restaurant, hop on the train to head to downtown Chicago.
christine
Excellent location……grabbed the metro each day into downtown.
Erika
It is a nice little hotel
Lisa
Bathroom was dirty. Very loud people above us. No pen in room. Uncomfortable bed.
Djilali
Just ok , nothing special, wished the coffee machine clean enough to make a coffee, the kitchen doesn’t have trash bags , some service room been skipped.
Ileana
The bathroom had been updated and was the best part of the room.
Wifi not very good.
Couldn't open the window to air out the room.
I would've preferred a desk to the table.

It's a beautiful historic building with original trim and decor.
I was ready to take a HOT shower but the running water after 2 min was lukewarm too cool to shower in. Finally at the 4 minute mark the water was HOT! I enjoyed a great shower I just needed to be patient!
Great staff, very clean, historic and interesting, and slower time to getting Hot water but all in all I would recommend!!

Tricia
I stayed in one of the smaller rooms, which was fine for me and my 1 night stay. The bed was on the firm side, which I definitely enjoyed. The firmer the better for me! There were 2 sinks in the bathroom even though it was probably one of their smaller rooms. The block glass window in the shower was nice for natural light, and provided space to put my shower items. There was a a kitchen area with a large college dorm room type of fridge and a microwave. I arrived a couple hours before check in and was able to get into my room without any extra fees some places seem to be doing to nickel and dime you - such a turn off. So I appreciated that for sure. There are various parking lots nearby, so grab a map to be prepared in case one is full. I was back pretty late at night, so one was full, but the map guided me to another one near, which had all 4 spots available, on a Thursday night. Plenty of restaurants, bars, and shopping a short walk away, and of course the Green line and the Metra if going to Chicago without having to take your car and park. Overall, a great stay, and I wouldn't hesitate to stay again while in the area.
Lisa
What a gem! Fabulous hotel, great location, and well worth it.
Shannon

Patrick
Very nice location and price was good for it
Melissa
One of our thin white curtains was ripped.
But everything was perfect. It is a beautiful place and though we were there for one night and literally no time to enjoy sights and food we will come back.

We love staying here when we book a show at Fitzgerald’s. It’s charming, has two great restaurants attached, rooms have everything you need, and we always sleep comfortably.
Douglas
Spacious room, very clean, comfortable bed and very quiet. Wonderful location.
Nancy
The hotel was conveniently located in a nice neighborhood with shops and restaurants. It had a cool vintage style. Parking was easy. Check-in and check-out weren't particularly friendly, just neutral. The elevator was rickety. The room was spacious, and the beds were comfortable. The bathroom was vintage, in a good way. Would stay again if in the area.
sander
The plug in the bathtub had an excesive amount of mold on it. The bathroom door top hinge was almost coming off so the door did not close properly.

Great stay very convenient location a a charming older property
James

Gary
Venerable old hotel. On-site restaurant was great. Staff was very helpful. Great location
Bhanu
Very spacious and clean rooms, customer friendly staff, excellent restaurant.
Cindy
The hotel is super charming and the room was clean and comfortable with the exception of the very firm mattress. I guess you like it firm or you don't! The staff was very friendly and the onsite restaurants were great. I'd stay again and recommend it to my friends.
Caryn
Located in a nice area. Beautiful hotel. Walkable to restaurants. Will stay again!
TERRANCE
For an older, historic hotel, it was in surprisingly good condition.
Carrie
We loved this hotel. It definitely had great historical feel, and it was vintage in all the best ways. One tricky thing is that there is no elevator from the main floor, so we had to put our luggage cart on the wheelchair lift twice... BUT, that was not a huge deal, just perhaps a hiccup if a guest has mobility issues. Overall, the place was wonderful! It was only a few miles to the main attractions, but the traffic is big city traffic, so that made the trips longer, so keep that in mind. Also, don't sleep on Blackout Coffee -- it was an amazing coffee shop right outside the hotel and around the corner for excellent morning coffee and pastries!
James

There were hairs in the sink and in one of the glasses. The other glass, though still covered, had about a half inch of water in it.
Jenny
The stay was great! Went for the weekend with my cousin. We arrived late at night and staff was very friendly, easy to navigate the place. Two dining establishments located within the hotel for dinner. The area itself was very nice and cozy. It was a 2 minute walk to the train. We would love to stay there again soon and bring friends with us. Would definitely recommend staying there!

Pleasant stay, windows quite thin so can hear the cars passing. Bed was comfy, good bathroom and friendly staff. Lovely area too, 2mins from green line route to downtown. (18-20mins on the train)

This was a pretty and unique hotel. We stood 3 nights. The first night was nice. The restaurant on the corner, my friend was surprised they had nice photos of men in the women’s restroom. I don’t use the restroom so I didn’t see. The second night as we came into town we had to come through the side entrance near the before mentioned restaurant and there was a mouse scurrying in the hall in the hotel hear the restaurant. My friend was frightened to see this. The cleaning staff, I’m not sure what they are to freshen up but we did get a couple of fresh towels the first time we hung the sign out to come in and clean the room. The other times it didn’t seem like anything was touched. Overall techs hotel is in a convenient, nice, area of town. Lots of shops and places to dine. And the tram into downtown Chicago just a minutes walk away.

Room hadn’t been cleaned when I entered. They upgraded my room, so no harm, no foul.

The experience was old-school class with new school flair. The rooms were clean, neat, and quiet. The food in the downstairs restaurant was delicious, I

Carlton is a very good hotel in a very nice part of Oak Park. But then again all of Oak Park is nice.
Courtney
Lovely hotel, cool historic building! There was some issue with temperature control in the room ( the hotel AC system is a bit antiquated) .
Gabriel
Beautiful and old hotel. The window in my unit was technically not fully able to close but other than that unit was sufficient. Again it’s a beautiful maintained old lobby and hotel. The unit could use a refresher
Bruce
It's an older nostalgic building in good shape for its age. Two restaurants on site. My only complaint was no coffee in the morning. When i asked if there was coffee available they directed me to Dunkin Doughnuts.
George
Loved the room and the bar and restaurant off the lobby. Did not like the fact that there was no coffee in the lobby.
Pete
Nice neighborhood, adequate room, but don't expect a morning newspaper or anything.

The hotel was clean and nice. However, we got a call on checkout day at 7:40 am which woke us up that we had to move our car by 8 am as they were starting parking lot construction. Why didn’t they tell us when we checked in as they knew then? No directions were given as to where to move the car. We decided to hurry up and check out and when we got to the car at 8 am the lot was almost completely full so construction obviously wasn’t starting at 8 am. In our rush to check out we left a car key fob in the room but didn’t discover this until we were home. I called and asked to have them check the room and no one called back after several hours so I called again. The front desk person said she’d have to talk to the head housekeeper and would have to call back. A few hours went by so my spouse called back and was told they couldn’t find the fob. A message was left for the general manager and was never returned. It’s been 7 days. Partly our fault for leaving in a hurry but a most unpleasant experience. They should have put a notice under our door or left us a phone message as we didn’t use our car all weekend.

It was a great place to stay. Close to the L to go to downtown Chicago. Nice restaurant right there and shopping nearby.
Eduardo
Great location and secure!

The “Elevator” it’s old, we got stuck in it for 45 minutes until fire department was able to open the door. Afterwards the front desk person took the room numbers of the people who got stuck supposedly for the manager to call us to give some sort of apology. We didn’t receive any call or anything for being stuck.
