We were in town for an event and it appears so were others since the rate was high and there were no upgraded rooms for Gold members (I found out it was UW graduation plus a wedding). The clerk tried hard to get me a decent room on the floor of my choice. This was one of the nicer Residence Inns - again because it was new. The layout was a bit different than older RI's and I have to say I like this better. The bathroom was spacious. The only downside was the sofa was hard as a rock - it looked good but was uncomfortable. The free breakfast was well stocked which was welcomed given the last two years of Covid cut backs on breakfasts at places like this. I would stay here again if in the area!

For people staying for work coffee with options and a piece of fruit and a yogurt is perfectly acceptable. A major downfall is not everyone wants flavored creamer they are sugary and some people avoid it. Why do you not have regular creamer available and if your packets are out why would you not place your dairy container out for the early crowd that need to get to work before your breakfast bar officially opens?

For the humble adventurer…read moreseeking rest and recovering after embarking to Eau Claire on whatever side quest or main storyline you are pursuing, the Oxbow offers respite that is much needed. Check in was seamless. Front desk staff give you all details you need and more. You don't find yourself needlessly pulling detail from them like any random NPC, but instead get recommended which record might be complimentary to your stay. Absolutely friendly. After a long day slaying dragons or rescuing royalty, you can retire to your room or enjoy a nice Ale or bevvy in the tavern downstairs. They will run the drinks out to your adventuring party where you've gathered around the fire to discuss the spoils of the day. The drinks are what I'd call, "The Golden Age of Mixed Drinks." While I settle on a brandy old fashioned which is native to my homeland, some other members of our party tried other delicious drinks and they did not disappoint. The room was undeniably comfortable. The beds were fit for a king or a queen and felt just as large as a king or queen sized mattress. The sofa was like that of one of the fabled sirens who'd lure passing sailors. At one point , my wife was lured into their midst and only just made it out after a short nap. Be ware of how comfortable it is! Parking was a breeze. Location is second to none. It's within walking distance of a lot in Eau Claire. Overall, if you aren't staying here, you're doing yourself a disservice. Stay here, weary travelers.

You do get the accompanying road noise, but it is not too bad. Just city street traffic and not freeway or highway noise. The rooms have been nicely remodeled from whatever road shack this place was before. Each room has a fridge which is always a big plus. Each room also has a record player which I thought was kind of cool. Small but hip collection of records in the lobby to choose from. You can take up to three out at a time. The attached bar, The Lakely, is decent. Jazz band playing when I was there. Not a great beer selection. Was a little bit disappointed that the drink token I got when I checked in was for BOGO and not a freebie. That is not how I am accustomed to drink tokens working. I prefer The Lismore hotel which is a couple blocks away for its quietness. However, I would not object to staying here again.

This hotel is a bit southwest of downtown and next door to the new UW-EC event center. Overall a good location with a number of restaurants in the area. The front desk staff were all very friendly and helpful. Even though it was a new place there were a couple minor maintenance issues with the room which we pointed out to the front desk on our check-out. The free breakfast was typical for hotels of this type. A good experience!

Wow! The SpringHill Suites is a brand new hotel in Eau Claire Wisconsin. If you ever find yourself…read moreneeding a place to stay in this area, I highly recommend this hotel. I've only ever stayed in a hotel this new one other time, and wow, it is refreshing. Everything is spotless. The ice machine creates super clean ice. The bathrooms are a dream. Only time will tell if their operations team is able to maintain it, but they are starting with a clean slate and all of the modern amenities. It's a typical Marriott property with fitness center, pool, and continental breakfast. I was put in an "assessable" room on the 2nd floor because that is all they had left, so I don't know what the other rooms look like. However, my room was very spacious with 2 queen beds, a very nice pullout, and a spacious bathroom (with extra grab bars). The mini fridge is kinda small but I'm told the standard rooms have slightly larger mini fridges. The hallways are well lit and shaped with alcoves for each set of a few rooms, that makes them more appealing than a standard long hallway. My only complaint about the design of the room is that that TV is positioned in such a way that it is viewable from one of the queen beds and the sofa. You can see it from the second queen bed but it isn't the best viewing angle. Not a big deal, but just me being super critical. This is only an issue because the room is so large compared to a standard guest room at an economy hotel. If I was the designer, I couldn't have designed it any better. Breakfast is pretty simple but sufficient. 3 hot options (scrambled eggs, little quiche, bacon), oatmeal with toppings, cereal, plain bagel, blueberry bagel, English muffins, yogurt, juice, and coffee. The bacon was thin but kinda tough. They had a good selection of sauces (hot sauce, etc) for the eggs. Notable to mention the lack of self serve waffle maker that you see in many hotels. They aren't winning any awards with the breakfast but it gets the job done. SpringHill Suites has upped their game. I would gladly stay at hotels like this, even over 4 star fancy hotels with valet and doormen. I think for the average traveler/family, this hotel checks all the boxes and provides an incredible value (I paid about $106 a night for a night). Not sure if their rates will go up as the hotel becomes more well known, but I hope not. 10/10 would recommend.

My room was very clean, the main area was impeccable and the pool area was very nice. I was very impressed with everything. The staff - from the front desk to the maids - were friendly and helpful.

One kid spilled an entire glass of apple juice everywhere ... then knocked ALL the utensils on the floor at breakfast (like 100 spoons, etc).

When we arrived it was later in the evening around 10:30. Came in with a large group of kids and was told the pool was open until midnight. We suited up and hopped in the pool (heated). It was a little after 11 and we were the only ones in the pool. An employee came in and told us that the pool was closed to kids at 11 and if anyone came in to pack up and leave right away. The reason this was an issue was we were already told we could swim and the employee had an extremely rude attitude. If we had known that kids could not swim after 11 we wouldn't have even bothered using the pool facilities.
