Sheraton Lisle, Illinois (Former Wyndham)
There seems to be a "new" category 2 Sheraton in Lisle: http://www.starwoodhotels.com/sherat...ropertyID=4011
The Starwood website about this property is rather bare, but there is more information under the former Wyndham brand: http://www.wyndhamlislehotel.com/ |
Has anyone stayed at the Sheraton Lisle? Looking at a stay there in June, or the Aloft Bolingbrook,or Lombard Westin. All 3 not that far apart location wise.
There are only a couple pictures on the website and they are extreme close ups of pillows and a lamp on the wall? Not much detail to be found anywhere on this property. The TA reviews (that are recent) half of which are from people with only 1 or 2 reviews (which I don't trust). I am leery of booking there now. This leaves me with Aloft only 4k in points or $130 or $150 after taxes. The Westin is 212 plus 23 in taxes, or i could use 7k in points and that is just the lowest level "traditional room". I think if I did book here I would go up to the "Deluxe Room" for just $8 more. I am SPG Gold if that matters. Recently I have had a pretty good string of very nice upgrades upon checkin but I never count on that and of course. Just me traveling so I might be ok with the aloft except its 2 nights and I worry about it being filled with noisy drunk young people ;) |
Here's my thoughts on a recent suite stay. I was disappointed that the website/hotel made no attempt during the booking to inform me of the extent of the current renovation. Contrary to the Manager's written comments in the SGP hotel-specific review section, this place is far from complete.
Pros: Ample, free parking Pet-friendly (lots of grass, no nightly pet fee) 3000 SPG points for booking suite (hotel specific and on top of other summer promos) Cons: Bugs in room (but at least most were dead) Blood stains on 1970s style carpet Water stained ceilings Wall-rattling HVAC Dumpy furniture in lounge (but OK food and helpful staff) Pool and fitness room still under construction Location--nothing around 1970s finishes, and not in a cool, retro way |
Wow that sounds bad, glad I did not nook there.
I ended up booking the Aloft which was just like other Alofts I have stayed at. Not normally my first choice but the location for what I was there for was perfect so I pulled the trigger and was happy with my stay at the Bolingbrook Aloft. No noise issues even with the hotel being full. |

3000 SPG Bonus Delay
FYI--The 3000 SPG / stay promo that this property ran (is running?) this summer won't credit until at least early August, so says CSRs via chat.

This is the worst Sheraton I have ever stayed at. The lounge is under construction so they have sent up a room off of the restaurant area on the 1st floor. Evening "spread" was a small bowl of veggies, a plate of cheese and grapes and some chicken strips that were cold. Breakfast was worse. Staff were disinterested and unhelpful. Asked if there were any Platinum suite upgrades at check-in and was told that the hotel was full. After checking into my 1970's room and using my own wifi (hotel signal was not strong enough) I could book at least 4 standard suites on SPG.com. Avoid this dump.

I tried to warn you...

I have been averaging around two nights a week here over the past two months. During this time the lounge has opened up on the top floor (there was a temp lounge on the first floor).
Had a stay last week that was cancelled by them because they had a "water leak" and had to transition all guests to other hotels. They sent me to a Hyatt House about a mile away and offered 5000 points for my troubles. That was enough to keep me happy (although the points have not posted yet!). I'm curious if I will get a stay credit? We shall see - I'll be staying there next week to follow up on this. The hotel itself is fine. It's average for a Sheraton. No major complaints. Club floor has recently renovated rooms. |
Clearly they have put some money into this place in the last couple of years. I stayed here once about 6 months ago, and am here again right now. Rooms have been recently renovated. As an SPG Gold, they put me in a very nice two room suite tonight. Club lounge is also very nice. Property is overall clean and very comfortable and staff is nice. No complaints here.
