Holiday Inn Bloomington - Normal by IHG

I stopped in for an unplanned stay during a winter storm that hit much of the Midwest. The assistant General Manager was very accommodating, addressing all my questions, and providing a solid favor given the circumstances, which I appreciate. The rooms were well cared for as were the facilities overall. The restaurant is very convenient especially during inclement weather, with reasonable prices & great food overall. The bar design is stunning with attentive & personable bartenders. Location overall is great for quickly getting back to the interstate but far enough away that traffic is not audible. Overall, I recommend this hotel & will stay here again should I need to in the future.

Overall, not a bad hotel. The staff are very friendly and welcoming, and the housekeeping team is professional my room was spotless upon arrival. It’s a quiet place with minimal freeway or neighbor noise, which made for a comfortable stay. However, the hallways are quite narrow, and the 1 Queen Bed room with a sofa couch feels better suited for a solo traveler. The space is tight for more than one person. The biggest downside for me was the bathroom. It’s one of the smallest I’ve ever seen, with limited counter space and poor lighting. The only light source is around the mirror, leaving the shower area almost completely dark. The sliding bathroom door also doesn’t latch, which can be inconvenient. If the bathroom had more space, lighting, and a bit more functionality, this hotel would be a solid choice all around.

Very nice staff, the room was clean and comfortable, the only drawback for me is the road noise outside. Just a bit loud for my liking. Would be better if I was on the other side of the hotel I'm guessing.

The room was nice, I would have preferred more lighting in the bathroom. Bathroom is quite small. The room was clean, the bed and pillows were very comfortable. The hotel did a nice job, considering we were a big group of over 200 people. I would stay here again.

Our marching band group had an amazing experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean, staff was friendly and attentive, and breakfast was great! Thank you so much for having us!

Stay! Loved our stay and service at this Holiday Inn! We had a group of 255, and it was truly a first-class experience from start to finish. I’ve been involved in many group travel events over the years, and it’s rare to have such a smooth and positive experience. The rooms were very clean and modern, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. What stood out most was the outstanding breakfast service — our large group had a private conference room with a wide variety of fresh, hot food options. The three staff members working each morning were incredible, constantly refilling, tidying, and ensuring everything ran perfectly.

Marsha my girl! She is the funniest and sweetest woman I have ever met. She deserves a raise for her kindness! Marriott stranded us by over booking and Marsha helped us out! 10/10

I didn’t stay here at all. My girlfriend lives in the area. What I did do was make a very important call to the front desk. You see, we were very hungry after church, but we didn’t know what to eat. So naturally, I called the highest rated hotel I could find to ask the front desk what their recommendation was. Nate, the kind gentleman that answered the phone, didn’t even hesitate to tell me what he believes to be the best place in town. His recommendation was top tier and I’d gladly go there again. If I ever need a hotel in this area, Nate will be the sole reason I’m coming here. If you read this Nate, you’ve done well. For those of you curious as to where I was recommended to eat, I guess you’ll just have to come stay at this hotel and find out for yourself.
