Vendor Reviews - The Carleton Hotel

The Carleton is a historic hotel in Oak Park and was steps away from our reception site so it was a no-brainer we would use this hotel and recommend it to our guests. We did get a discounted rate and they blocked off rooms for us well in advance. My mom communicated with them the most but overall they were helpful and prompt with e-mails.

The Carleton also has several ballrooms to host weddings and/or events. Some of the guest rooms are a little old fashioned but they were spacious and comfortable. Our suite had a full size fridge and good size kitchen which came in very handy.

Our OOT totes were handed out when guests arrived and there was plenty of free parking. This hotel also has a bar, Poor Phil's, in the lobby which was very convenient and we spent a few nights hanging out there (free popcorn!).

8 of 10 for The Carleton Hotel (only because some of the rooms could use updating and are a little musty).
