What a well kept secret
Hilton Garden Inn Merrillville is a well kept secret. We had a spacious lobby that our group could gather in, quite comfortable and inviting. Although this Hilton does not offer a complementary breakfast they do offer a hot breakfast and microwave and snack options. You will find comfortable beds and a nice , clean bathroom.

Breakfast anyone?
I've never spent so much money on a hotel that did not offer a complimentary breakfast. They actually tried to charge us $18 for an adult breakfast on a $250/night room.

Clean but the bed was not comfortable at all.
The room was clean. The issue I had and was surprised is the comfort of the bed was similar to Motel6, I picked Hilton Garden because I used to stay in this hotel in Chicago and bed and pillow were very comfy. I woke up with back pain lasted all day. I had previous injury, and a comfy bed was the reason I picked Hilton Garden based on my previous experience in Chicago.
The surrounding of the building like mowing needs some work or maybe it is not part of hotel facility.
I will not stay in this hotel again if I travel to Merrillville.

Bed was so uncomfortable to be a Hilton. Could feel the springs on the mattress. Room wasn't super clean. Didn't look vacuumed. Sheets were scratchy and blanket wasn't comfortable. Needs major upgrades.

some of the staff was rude, and unkind. other staff persons were great.
cleaning every other night; team was not as helpful with assistance when I was not aware of your cleaning procedures. Needed extra items; had to make continual request to get requested information needed. Night Manager -Billing question Rep was rude -night manager and unpleasant. Room was not vacuumed. The room was not cleaned properly, dusty and dust; hair from previous customers, etc.
Hotel located in a great location. Many options for dining outside the property, etc.
