We stayed here just one night on our way to MIlwaukee. This exit had probably more than a dozen hotels in close proximity, just off I-65. Most of the others has had poor to average reviews, and the chain I usually use was way overpriced for the area and day. We were able to find a travel coupon for Country... More

The hotel was tucked way back off the highway & not the easiest to find. Outward appearance on arrival was "very nice". We barely got into the room & the front desk was asking if everything was alright - at that point we didnt know. The room was small. No refrigerator or microwave. Ice machine was on the 1st floor....

Everything about this hotel was exceptional. All the staff were extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Any requests were met with a smile and prompt service. The lobby was lovely and inviting. The rooms were very clean, spacious and quiet. I never heard any sounds from outside the hotel. The beds were new and wonderfully comfortable. I slept soundly every night.... More

Upon arrival, the clerk did not know how to check in a customer with reservations through Expedia. Although assigned a first floor room, we requested a second floor, due to the overpowering smell of chlorine coming from the pool. The next day, returned to the room late afternoon to find it had not been made up. Front desk indicated we... More

Very pleasant stay. I Travel a lot for work, but have never stayed in a Country Inns and Suites before. This location is good becuase its near so many restaurants, and the full breakfast was really nice with lots of choices. I liked the fresh cookies on the counter all the time, the pool was really warm, and the hotel... More

I have stayed at Country Inn before. Like any middle of the road hotels, the newer the better. This hotel was either new, or recently renovated. The rooms, while cramped were clean and comfortable. For $50 on priceline, I was fine with it. Plenty of places to eat dinner right around the hotel and near a mall if that interests... More

I was passing thru the area on a family trip, and we decided to stay with Country Inns and Suites, I must say this was the best decision as far as hotel stays went. The staff were friendly and the cleanliness was outstanding. Not to mention the breakfast. I have a very picky daughter and they had items in the... More

On my recent trip to Merrillville I stayed here and of all the hotels I have stayed in around the area the customer service at this hotel is the best. Mangement was very friendly and helpful. I was only in the room for 10 minutes before the front desk called to make sure everything was great with my room. I... More

I stayed here with my two daughters. My only real beef with the hotel was the price. Three nights, with tax, cost over $400. I consider this to be a premium cost level, but the hotel delivered, at best, only average quality. Not much variety on the breakfast bar. Adequate rooms, but nothing out of the ordinary. Probably won't stay... More

My brother and now sister-in-law chose this hotel for the weekend of their wedding for both their bridal party and relatives as it was relatively new and a seemingly nice facility. When I arrived with my wife and 2 children on Friday afternoon, we were hoping to use the swimming pool until the rehearsal that evening, but as we walked... More

Jason, I am very sorry you had a horrible experience at the Country Inn & Suites Merrilliville. What happened during your stay was not acceptable. I can assure you every measure has been taken to minimize this ever happening again. I have also brought in a new management team to my hotel. I hope you will give Country Inn &... More
