Sonesta ES Suites Chicago Waukegan Gurnee

We were there for sons bc graduation and it was a perfect quiet location. Only 1/2 hr from the airport and less than 15 minutes from base. Was also minutes from Wal-Mart and grocery so we could pick up some essentials for our stay that we couldn’t fit on the plane. It was very nice to have 2 bedrooms and perfect to have living room/ kitchen space to relax and enjoy our time there with him.

The location to my fiance PIR was great. The breakfast was great as well, several choices for my family. The staff was beyond great. Last minute we needed to extend our stay and even tho PIR was on a Wednesday due to the holiday she still made accommodations for us. It's nice having a room with fully stocked dishes and full size fridge so we can make our own meals.(my mom's on a restricted diet so we didn't have to eat out) I would definitely recommend this hotel, and there were no bugs or rodents and I'm one that will still inspect it no matter what, but here it was very clean and was completely comfortable for us. They also have shampoo, conditioner and body wash that my kids prefer to use over their own. Coffee, tea and hot chocolate all day. My kids loved it. We have stayed at different hotels while on trips and this one is by far the best home away from home. Kristina was very helpful and treated us like family. If any bumps in the road and u will be arriving late just call them and let them know they make the process fast and easy to check in so u can get to the room and relax. When I come back to Illinois I'll definitely be staying here again. My personal experience with them the whole time so far has been great. And we were able to stay in the same room for the extended stay. Again if u want that family comfort this is a great hotel. We are from a busy town and live right by the freeway so being right by the highway helped us sleep lol. Again this was a home away from home and everything was within 10 mins from us. The way it looks online is what our room looked like. We had the 2 bedroom 2 bathroom kitchen and living room. It was a lil apartment pretty much. Well worth the money and not expensive staying around a holiday and having to extend the stay 3 more days.

We were greeted with a warm welcome by the friendly and helpful woman at the front desk. Visiting town for our son’s Naval graduation, we received invaluable information that enhanced our stay. The room was impeccably clean and offered exceptional space for the price. Our son even spent a night on the couch with us, making it feel like home. I highly recommend this hotel to any family visiting their sailor—it's an excellent choice!

The Suite itself was very clean and roomy. The kitchen had all the pans, plates, utensils needed. The refrigerator was full size but was missing the door handle. Huge plus was that the bed was comfy and we had plenty of bath towels. The front desk staff were all very friendly and The breakfast had great options.

The Breakfast Selection was great! The staff was nice especially the pregnant lady. Building was very secure! The location was near all of the stores you may NEED (Walmart, Starbucks, Phone companies, & CASINOOOOOS my mom loved that. Most importantly close to the Naval station which is what brought us to the area Navy graduation.
