The staff at hotel was friendly, respectful and responsive to our requests. The hotel is located in perfect location where we were able to walk and try different restaurants in the city using our stay. What bothers us a bit was that our bathroom has missing shower curtain and the lounge was too not sufficiently cool down for summer day.

The first room that was assigned to us was terrible; small, looked like a basement although it was on 3rd floor, had only ugly white lighting! Luckily the staff listened to our complaints and changed it immediately to a normal room. The staff was kind and polite. Our room was clean. Breakfast had a rich menu. However, there was no complimentary water bottles (we were told that the hotel ran out of water). They were being sold though.

The staff at the front desk were very nice. What I did not love about my room was that, aside from it being rather small, it was somewhat dusty and not well vacuumed. The bathroom was clean, however. Unfortunately, the bathroom was so small that it was very hard to comfortably use the toilet. And the tub was slippery and small so taking a shower was a bit difficult as well. The Orrington used to be considered one of the better hotels in Evanston, but I was not very impressed with the room.

Good hotel, super helpful staff but parking was a downside. Valet was the only practical option for us and cost over $40/day. There is supposed to be cheaper self-parking across the street for around $8–$12 per day, but it’s not on hotel property and wasn’t realistic for us since I arrived at 3 AM with two kids.

The hotel has a great location in downtown Evanston close to Northwestern University. You can walk to restaurants and bars, close to coffee shops, target and Whole Foods. Service is great and valet is $37 a day. Our room was great, remodeled and comfortable. Price is very affordable for the location.

Thomas

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Our room was weirdly shaped and very cramped. Worst of all was the excessive noise coming from the heating system, which sounded like an airplane revving for takeoff. If one turned on the fan, there was no heat. Turn it on for heat, and the fan noise prohibited sleep. Street lights outside the room illuminated the room through the small windows that had inadequate curtains to block the light. Shame on Hilton for squeezing this room into the corner of their hotel and failing to provide an environment conducive to a sound rest for its guests. On the plus side, the staff and kind and friendly.
