What's nearby

  • This beach is in Centennial Park in Evanston, IL This picture was taken at sunset which was happening on the opposite side but I'm facing east here and you can see the sunset reflection on the horizon. It was perfect timing because water was very calm and it was hard to tell were skies connect with water on the horizon.

Lovely stay with helpful staff excellent location. Breakfast is a wonderful full dining experience -no pre packaged chain hotel offerings. One can easily walk to shopping, dining, cafes and Lake Michigan. Rooms very clean with lots of storage /closet space. Mini kitchens are fully equipped with new appliances that all work! Only comment is that bed and pillows were very firm and made it uncomfortable to sleep-this is the reason for 4 stars and not 5.

The staff was lovely. Housekeeping excellent and very clean. The lobby decor is clean but run down, like visiting tidy grandparents. It could easily be modernized but it’s a taste choice that feels budget conscious. It isn’t a luxurious experience but it is nice. Some renovation choices hard to understand- room layout e.g. Location suited me perfectly.

Phenomenal hotel!! From the moment I walked in my room, I knew that this would be preferred choice for my next Chicago area visit. Great staff, especially the restaurant staff!! Beautiful property. Close to everything, including train!! Only cons: If you book through a 3rd party app (Expedia), let them know immediately or wake up to daily charges. Also, the $50 early check in fee... if my room is already ready, I don't understand the fee. Other than that, you'll have no regrets with The GEM of Evanston!!!

Very good hotel to stay with family, because there are kitchenetts and the inroom washer&dryer. The neighborhood is very quiet, and there are lots of places to dine in or shopping flashly. The most favorable was the free breakfast in the Gem museum right across the building!

The staff was exceptional, willing to assist in any way and very friendly. All areas, including the room, were kept clean. The lobby and garden were truly unique. I even managed to take pictures of a bunny. The breakfast fruit was very fresh and delicious. We would consider staying again. The only trouble we had was clearly marked parking signs and spot availability.

This is a lovely spot. It was quiet, basically a studio apartment with a washing machine. And an easy walk to a coffee shop, bakery, 7-11. The signs inside said they will soon have a Mediterranean restaurant as well.

The room was immaculate– the space had many amenities and was perfect for my working 'vacation'. I loved getting back to my hotel room after a long day of meetings. It was very relaxing. I enjoyed the fitness room and also the hot breakfasts. I noticed that there was a salon on site, but I didn't take advantage of that. It's name says it all--it's a 'gem.'
