The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Chicago-Deerfield/Lincolnshire By IHG

Comfort, Convenience, and a Quiet Retreat Near Chicago


Modern and welcoming, the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Chicago-Deerfield/Lincolnshire offers a laid-back stay just a short drive from downtown Chicago. Located in peaceful Riverwoods, this hotel blends suburban calm with easy access to big-city venues and attractions. Guests enjoy free Wi-Fi, a heated indoor pool, and a complimentary shuttle service within 5 miles—perfect for getting to nearby train stations or local venues without the hassle.

Why Concert-goers love it

The location hits a sweet spot for travelers heading to concerts—just far enough from the city for a quiet night’s sleep, but close enough to reach downtown Chicago with a short drive or Metra ride (only 3 miles to the nearest station). After a late night out, guests appreciate the 24-hour fitness center, relaxing hot tub, and free evening receptions (Monday–Thursday) with snacks and drinks. Flexible 4:00 PM check-in and 11:00 AM checkout means you won’t feel rushed on your show day or the morning after.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a quiet, affordable base
  • Solo travelers heading to a dream concert
  • Couples making a weekend getaway of it
  • Concert fans who prefer to wind down in peace post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who want perks like free breakfast and parking

Food and Drink Options

Fuel up before or after your gig with the hotel’s daily breakfast buffet—complete with pancakes and signature cinnamon rolls. While there’s no full-service restaurant on site, the area has plenty of nearby dining options within the 5-mile free shuttle radius. Monday through Thursday, enjoy a free evening reception with light bites and drinks. Late-night food? Check out nearby eateries or bring your own for a chill night in.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself doesn’t host live music or have a bar, it’s a short ride to local bars and lounges in Deerfield and Lincolnshire. If you're heading into Chicago for your show, you’ll find plenty of nightlife near the venues—then return to a quiet night’s rest.

What People Say

Guests love the clean, spacious rooms and the friendly, helpful staff. Many mention the peaceful, suburban setting as a big plus after a night out. The free shuttle and proximity to the Metra also get high marks for convenience.

Areas for Improvement

The location may be a bit far for those wanting to walk to downtown venues or bars, and there’s no on-site restaurant or bar. But for those with a car or using the Metra, it’s a solid trade-off for peace and value.

The Bottom Line

For concert-goers seeking a quiet, comfortable, and affordable stay with easy access to both local venues and Chicago nightlife, this hotel hits all the right notes.

We drove from Oklahoma City...

Liked: The lady who worked the morning on the day of my stay really saved the day. I loved Daisy she was so helpful and sweet. We arrived earlier than expected and though a room was not ready for us just yet she kept us informed and let the kids come in to swim to get out the car until the room was available. Closer to check in time the room was not yet available but she did have another option and provided that one to us without an up charge. We had an amazing stay due to her amazing customer service and warm heart.
Disliked: I didn’t like the attitude and vibe from the lady at the front desk around 5:50am on the day of my stay. I came in and said hello and she was looking down writing something and never said anything to me. I just stood there for 3 minutes then she looked up and just stared at me I said hello I have a reservation and wanted to see what options I have for early check in if possible. She just looked at me for a minute and said no we are full we have no rooms to reserve. I said I have a reservation just later today just checking the options I may have. She said you can check the other hotels that are bigger since we are small we are full so their is no options. I then just walked out and told my family. I started to look at rooms in the area but remembered I already paid for the room there so we just sat in the car until Daisy came in.
