South Bend Hotels with Gym

The room is large, clean, the bed is soft, the condition is OK, the breakfast is quite comfortable, it is a hotel relatively close to the University of Notre Dame nearby, and it takes less than 20 minutes to walk through the grove to the school.

While the lobby was beautiful, and the aesthetics are nice- the bed was super uncomfortable. Parking was across the street, and absolutely ridiculous price for the small town of SB. $22 a night? Give me a break South Bend. Noise from the street was constant, and very loud. We were awake most of the night. My favorite moment that let me know we would not return was when a food delivery driver drove down the sidewalk, necessitating people trying to use the sidewalk for walking to have to get out of the way. Pass on South Bend downtown.

Have wanted to stay here for a couple years. What a disappointing experience. Front desk personnel were awesome.. we will start with that. Property is outdated and needs torn down and put to better use. Hotel smells like an old , unventilated office building, in the middle of your grandparents musty basement. Opened the door to our suite, and our shoes stuck to the floor with every step. Bed was mediocre at best, bathroom floor was sticky, and littered with hair. Our view was amazing. It displayed.. a dirty glass wall, overlooking a disappointing dining area. The dining experience was $102 and the only thing edible was chicken strips. The bar was a joke, we ordered something sweet and ended up with some ginger beer, grapefruit and orange concoction. The bar drink mat would have probably tasted better. The area is improving with all the small businesses local to the hotel, but this place is antiquated and needs replaced in the worst way.

Clean rooms, very friendly staff, and the ambiance of the lobby is very welcoming. We stayed for a convention and were there 4 nights. After the first night, even though we had a Do Not Disturb sign on the door, the housekeeping left us a bag of extra towels outside our door and that ended up being SO helpful! I love staying here and look forward to going again next year.

Me and several friends booked a couple suites at Ivy Court for the Marshall vs Notre Dame football game. Everyone that works there were extremely helpful and courteous. Jessica, Annica and Timmyka each went out their way to make our stay fun and memorable. Since all of us were traveling from out of town, we purchased the tailgate package also which was well worth it. We didn't have to pack up our own tent, chairs, etc. and the staff at Ivy Court set it all up and tore it all down. We just had to show up and tailgate. The breakfast is made fresh right in the kitchen next to the buffet. While we were there it had scrambled and fried eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns, burritos, hot & cold cereal with break and muffins. It was a great set-up. Finally, you can't get much closer to the stadium and the walk over was 5-10 minutes. The location can't be beat either. Overall, it was a terrific stay at Ivy Court and in South Bend for the weekend.

Terrible experience all around! Had a male guest walk into my room while I was getting out of the shower. We were both assigned and given keys to the same room upon check in. The room was next to the stairwell and I could hear the door opening and slamming shut all night long. Any time I needed to get into my room I had to get a new set of keys bc they wouldn’t work. I was told it was a new box of key cards and everyone was having trouble. I was also charged for parking …. I did not have a car so check your bill. I have made several attempts to reach the manager to discuss my experience, in person (was told by the staff “he was probably 5 beers deep”), left 3 voicemails and sent an email. No response! My husband is a long standing corporate traveler with Marriott and is appalled by this experience. $700/night for commencement weekend warrants better service. I should’ve read the reviews here before booking. It explains why they were sold out for such a big ND event.

Excellent stay, the hotel still looks new, our room was clean, comfortable and the a/c was not loud (sometimes the on and off all evening is so loud at some places). Lesley was so kind and really made us feel welcome. Yes there is a parking fee, as I see a lot of comments about it on the reviews. That’s just the way it goes in some places. I also saw comments about the rooms being smaller compared to other Embassy Suites, that is the case. We weren’t traveling with kids so it was fine for the two of us in a King Suite, last time we stayed at an ES with two kids and it was the typical larger room we have experienced. This would have been manageable but tight. Also the kids are younger, would have been tight with like two teenagers. But I can’t speak to the 2Q room so perhaps it’s larger. Yes, they do have breakfast buffet style but staff serves it to you. I prefer that way, they were professional and wearing gloves. I don’t want a bunch of strangers using their hands with the tongs over and over and breathing directly on the food I’m about to eat. I saw they were giving hearty portions and asked for a smaller amount when it was my turn and a bit more of another item and they were very accommodating. One thing that I wish was different, you can approach the bathroom from the bedroom and living room which is great, but the light for the bathroom is next to the living room door but not another one by the bedroom entrance. I wish it had two as it was hard to navigate in the dark without using my phone for light. Just a small thing but would be nice.

It’s was clean and stay was great

I found this Hotel on my IHG app while looking for Hotels in the area. I was in the South Bend area for business and looking for a Hotel close to New Carlyle. The price for a one night was what closed the deal. This is a budget-friendly hotel with large spacious clean rooms. There is no 'breakfast' at the hotel but they have vending machines and many restaurants close by. I found a nice sized kitchen area, a large desk/work area, a large comfy queen bed, and a large bathroom inside my room. Overall my stay was good, but the rooms could use a touch of modernization. The rooms lack USB ports but they have electrical outlets around the room, so I was able to charge most of my devices. The Wifi connection was strong and I was able to connect through a firewall to my company server to check emails and update my CRM. I did find streaming was okay as well as I went online for Netflix and Amazon Prime and have no buffering issues. I would have given this property 4 stars but cleanliness was an issue. I found dirty smudges on the entrance door, cup ring stains on the nightstand by the bed and hair in the drain in my shower (yech!!). Aside from that, the bathroom was large and relatively clean with plenty of towels and full shampoo, conditioner and shower gel in the shower. The Fitness room had enough equipment for a basic workout. It had cardio machines and free weights as well as some other accessories. I got in a good 45-minute workout with weights and the cardio machine and also did some stretching (ROMWOD) on the only supplied exercise mat. Would I stay here again...yes, as the price is right but cleanliness needs to be improved and I would like to see a touch of modernization with USB and maybe USB-C ports in the work area and the nightstands.
