We recently stayed here for three nights. The pros - location, staff, price, ample free parking, breakfast included in room rate. The cons - small room size, small "double" beds, lack of certain amenities. All of the staff that we encountered at this hotel were simply great. The price is reasonable and includes continental breakfast. The breakfast each morning included... More

Location is very convenient to historic sites. Clean, attractive facility with good off street parking. Hot breakfast is served on real plates instead of styrofoam. Reasonably priced. Don't miss a tour of the state Capitol just a block away.

My wife and I stayed at the State House Inn May 2-3, 2013, when we went to Springfield to visit the Lincoln museum. Everything about the hotel was satisfactory for our purpose. When traveling, we want cleanliness, comfort and convenience, not luxury and multiple services. The room and bathroom were ample and clean, and the bed comfortable. Bathrobes were a... More

I don't want my title to scare people away from this establishment. This is a good Hotel. If you are transacting business with the State of Illinois you should stay here. All of the major state offices are right across the street as well as the state capitol building. If you are taking Amtrak you are only about three blocks... More

First I want to thank this Guest for pointing out some of the things that make us an exemplary hotel before they made the rest of their comments. We do work hard to provide the best hotel experience we can. That being said, we acknowledge that our rooms are small. The hotel was built in 1963 and this was the... More

Good base for sight seeing, though not a great selection of restaurants nearby - generally mostly sports bars. Though it was great to have a Cold Stone Creamery nearby. Room was clean, comfortable and pleasantly furnished. Staff friendly and helpful.

I've been to Springfield a number of times but this was my first time at this hotel and I would return. It is very close to the Capital building and Lincoln sites. Very nice decor, rooms comfortable, great hot breakfast, nice hotel staff, free Wi-Fi, free parking. Really a nice surprise! Check it out.

This hotel is perfect for a short visit to Springfield because of its close proximity to everything in the downtown area: Capitol building, Old State Capitol building, Lincoln Museum and Library,Lincoln home, and Amtrak station. A full breakfast and clean, comfortable, quiet rooms and free Wi-Fi are a plus.

Just returned from Springfield. Stayed at the State House Inn from reviews on Trip Advisor. Hotel was cozy, great price and close to all the Lincoln sites. Which were easy to find once you get the hang of the one-way streets. Full hot breakfast. Comfy beds . Only complaint was that the toilets were practically on the ground and the... More

We really appreciate the time and energy our guests put into posting reviews here and on other websites about our property. Sometimes, even when the review is generally positive, something jumps out at me that might merit clarification. This is one of those reviews. I'm not quite sure why they felt the toilets were low. Toilet height, especially in our... More
