Hotel Northland, Autograph Collection

The location was great. We parked in the garage (free on weekends) that connects to the hotel via a 2nd floor walkway usable once you've checked in and have a key. And we walked to a wonderful restaurant for dinner, Mangiare (highly recommend, though it is expensive, but food and service are wonderful!). The following day, we walked to breakfast at The Creamery (which didn't have pancakes--my heart, and stomach, were set on pancakes!) but was such a pretty spot to sit and eat looking out on the snow-banked Fox River. We headed back to the hotel and requested a later checkout time (happily granted), prepared for my book event at Lion's Head Bookstore, checked out and headed over to my event. In addition to being in a great location, the hotel has a comfortable upholstered bench and armchair, and a nice table and desk chair at which to do some work.

Everything was exceptional! Clean, beautiful- period decor from the roaring 20’s complete with soft jazz playing in the background. Behind the front counter is a display of old skeleton room keys- very cool! The bed was like sinking into a cloud- I have never slept in a hotel bed as comfortable as this one. The room was spacious and the bathroom looked like a spa. It was extraordinary, the standard by which we’ll measure all other hotels we stay at against.

Love the "vibe" of this hotel. Updated - historic. Preservation of old hotel cubbies behind check in desk -fabulous touch.

Loved the hotel, mix of history and modern updates Room was a good size with a little lounge area Good bathroom and walk in shower Comfortable bed

We rented 2 rooms for a wedding and the front desk was very kind and accommodating to our requests. Everyone was friendly and welcoming. I love historic properties done well. This hotel was nicely updated in a way that honored the history and felt current all at the same time. The public spaces were beautiful.
