Hotels work in Peoria IL
Peoria draws hotel demand from more than one direction. There is business travel tied to the hospitals and the large employers downtown, there is leisure demand from the riverfront and from events at the civic center and the ballpark, and there is interstate traffic on I 74 stopping for the night. The properties competing for those bookings are a mix of national franchise flags along the War Memorial Drive and Interstate 74 corridors and independent and owner operated hotels closer to downtown and the river. Guests searching for a room in Peoria are usually comparing a short list of brands they already know plus one or two local names, and the local names win when their pages answer the specific question the guest typed, whether that is a pet friendly room, a shuttle to the airport or a block of rooms for a wedding.
