I have stayed at the Mark Twain in Peoria a couple of times. It looks like it was built in the 1960's but has been completely renovated. There are great rooms with exposed brick walls and great appointments... I like the track lighting. The rooms are small but seem bigger due to the layout and configuration. Free easy parking is...

I stayed there Jan 4, 2012 and was very pleased. It is very easy to access from I-74, easy open parking (no covered parking garage), the lobby was small but well decorated. Rooms were adequate for our use. They provide 2 free drink coupons for the bar which is adjacent. My only comments would be the bathroom has very little... More

I would recommend this hotel, it is clean, quiet and the renovated studio rooms on the 7th floor are very comfortable. The room decor is modern and user friendly for the business traveler. The shuttle service is a great bonus to and from the airport and to restaurants and shopping. The shuttle driver Alex was prompt and courteous. The breakfast... More

Service was friendly, and everything was clean. Accomidations were modern and well put together; I was impressed by the room and it's ammedities. Stay included a voucher for a... More

This is a beautiful hotel, top quality, very modern, and gorgeous on the inside. The exterior appearance does not do it justice. But I can't recommend this hotel because the beds are rock hard. Like sleeping on a futon, one co-worker said. But I think I've slept on more comfortable futons. Pity the designers did not consider bed comfort to... More

I agree with the rude comments made by others... While put on hold to hear the "we are warm and friendly" recording, I experienced quite the opposite from the assistant manager. Shame because there are many other helpful and kind staff members and the place was very comfortable to sleep. But one bad experience is all it takes to send... More

Stayed here for one night. Originally was in a Century room, but then because of a problem with the heating unit in the room I was moved to another room. The Century Room was very tired with poor lighting. The room I was moved to (a studio, I think) was on a floor which had been renovated and was much... More

We were visiting Peoria for only one night, and decided to reserve a room at the Mark Twain based on TA reviews. We are glad we did! LOBBY/CHECK-IN: The lobby is lovely, with a library, a Starbuck’s coffee/cocoa machine, and ATM. Check-in was a breeze with courteous staff. Check-in is 3pm, but our room was ready when we arrived at... More

From the exterior the Mark Twain looks tired old and in need of a facelift. On the inside it is a very nice and trendy hotel. The restaurant had excellent food. My room was very spacious with a comfortable King Bed, with reading lights. Door to the bathroom was solid oak on rollers (very trendy) I was pleasantly surprised by... More

I'm originally from Peoria. When I'm not staying with family I will stay at Mark Twain. Clean, friendly staff, great decoration, good sized rooms, complimentary drinks at the hotel bar, close to downtown and fabulous free breakfast (waffle and omelet stations manned by cooks). Reasonable price. Always enjoy my stay. More
