Holiday Inn Express Chicago Arlington Heights

Holiday Inn Express Chicago NW - Arlington Heights by IHG So far. Nice. Clean. This Holiday Inn did some major light updates. Nice blue lights. Normally it's green. Great breakfast. I feel I should mention that our room was almost perfect. We had an ant issue. While we were in our room, a large group of ants invaded our room. We were at level 3. They mostly attacked my open coke pop can and they crawled all over my wife while she was sleeping. I told the front counter and they gave us a replacement room, but the replacement room had cigar smells. It was a handicap room, but the person before us clearly was smoking a lot. Other than those two issues, the hotel was fine. Highly Recommended.

This hotel is clean and comfortable with typical HIE breakfast. It is over 6 miles from ORD so I would not recommend for people without a car. The shuttle leaves the hotel for airport once on the hour but not early enough for early morning flights. That means taxi or ride share which will cost $20-25 if you are lucky. If you are waiting for airport pick up timing is everything because it is once after the guest drop off. We were not there on weekend but others commented on lack of shuttle on weekends. I recommend calling other hotels to check their shuttle service before booking this one. If you are driving this would be a fine choice for a lower cost hotel that is clean and comfortable with safe free parking and welcoming helpful staff. Johnnie’s Beef Roast Sandwiches is steps away and has delicious sandwiches and fries. Add the peppers!

This is our second stay at the Holiday Inn Express Chicago NW - Arlington Heights in the past 2 months. After coming in May for a graduation weekend, we came in this time for a quick overnight stay before flying out of O'Hare in the morning. It's a short 15 minutes from the airport. The hotel is clean, the room was clean and spacious, and the breakfast is always great. That staff is incredibly helpful. I especially appreciated how helpful and courteous Javier was at the front desk. This is a great hotel and we will be back again.
