Embassy Suites
The Embassy Suites is one of Peoria's more noticeable hotels. The reason is simple: it's situated right on the Illinois river and many of its rooms have a far-reaching view of the landscape. Those familiar with Embassy Suites as a brand, know that they outfit the rooms with the finest furniture and amenities. Embassy's continental breakfast is second to none. Isn't it time you woke up late, had a danish and peered across the river? Yes. Yes it is.
Mark Twain
The Mark Twain Hotel is upscale. It's Peoria's Premier Boutique Hotel, extravagantly renovated after being constructed in 1967. MarkTwainHotel.com describes its atmosphere like this. “Our guests are greeted by a style that is hip, yet warm and comfortable. Sink into the soft leather chairs, cozy up to the custom-built oak fireplace, and relax to the sounds of upbeat music and friendly conversation. Open up your laptop – you're connected. Grab a cup of Starbucks coffee in the library & relax. This is the Mark Twain Hotel and yes, you're still in Peoria.” Head over to their site if you're still not convinced… but I'm guessing you'll head there to book a room, instead.
