 Allan Entering Hotel Pere Marquette in Peoria by deecat While visiting Peoria, we stayed at the Hotel Pere Marquette(named after one of the earliest of the French explorers, Father Jacques Marquette). Located only one block from the Peoria Civic Center, it was the perfect hotel for our trip to see Josh Groban in concert. Hotel Pere Marquette opened in 1927, costing $2.5 million, and in 1981, it was totally renovated. Shortly thereafter, the hotel was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. I also enjoyed the fact that the hotel was only four blocks from the Peoria Riverfront, which was fun to walk. There's a huge bar area called Rendevous with its two gigantic bars, comfortable seating areas, and a pool table area, too. The hotel also has a restaurant with a reputation as one of Peoria's best restaurants.
This magnificent "Old-World"-inspired hotel has 253 spacious rooms, six VIP jacuzzi suites, thirteen hospitality suites, and eighteen junior suites. A real asset is the FREE deck parking. All rooms have irons, ironing boards, coffee maker, and hair dryer. The hotel has a Gift Shop, Fitness Center, In-room movies, High-Speed Internet Connection, and Nitendo Games. If you have an opportunity, stay in this historic old hotel in a classic river town, Peoria.

 Our Hotel Room at Hotel Pere Marquette by deecat Our room at the Hotel Pere Marquette was very large with quite high ceilings and large, nicely decorated windows. There were two beds, an end table, two chairs, a round table, couch, coffee table, large chest of drawers, another end table, and four lamps. Its roominess did not detract from the coziness of the suite-like ambience. The bathroom was rather small, but we were pleased with the strong pressure in the shower. We enjoyed being able to sit on the couch and chairs when we read, wrote, or watched TV.
I thought our room might be noisy because our two large windows looked out over Main Street; however, the windows were well insulated, and all the noise was completely blocked out. All-in-all, we were quite pleased with our one-night stay at Peoriea's premier hotel, Hotel Pere Marquette.

 Me in front of the hotel, from the parking lot by jnadler, 4 more photos Our stay here was very nice. The hotel and lobby seemed very fancy, so we were expecting a really fancy room, but I would say the room itself was about average. It was still very spacious and the bed was comfortable, though. An organization I'm in through Bradley University held our Spring Formal at the Hotel Pere Marquette, and the event was one of our best. The formal room was beautiful, with a chandelier. The food was delicious, and the servers were very nice. When I commented on how much I loved the cheesecake, our server offered to get me another piece (I also went to an Etiquette Dinner in the same ballroom, and the service was just as good that night!). Since we were part of an event being held at the Pere Marquette, we were offered a room at a discounted rate, so my boyfriend and I decided to stay. Our room was big enough that we were able to invite other friends up to join us before and after the formal, there was plenty of room to entertain guests. Although the room itself was nothing special, I would recommend the Hotel Pere Marquette, especially if you are looking for somewhere to hold a special event.
