Why Stay in Lisle?
Read what others have to say.

Steven Pearson
Conference Coordinator
The National Arbor Day Foundation
“Our organization has held several meetings at a couple of different facilities in Lisle. We have found it to be a convenient location for attendees coming from Chicago and the surrounding area as well as for those flying in for the event. Fear of traffic and parking problems can cause potential registrants to hesitate in their decision to attend, but meeting in an area like Lisle helps alleviate that. You have the advantages of meeting near a large population base, but don’t have to deal with many of the issues associated with meeting in a big city. We have also been able to book our events there at competitive rates.

Wendy C. Reese, Program Specialist
Youth Network Council
“We like the Lisle area because it is a convenient location for our Youth Service Professionals from the suburbs and Northern Illinois to attend training. Trying to get from the suburbs to a training located in downtown Chicago can be somewhat of a difficulty at times. Whether you come from the North, South, East or West, there is a major highway that will bring you to the Lisle area.”

Pat Tessman, Executive Assistant
Baxter Healthcare Corporation
“The biggest reason I chose Lisle was its location to the airport. Transportation from the airport to the hotel was very easy and economical. This was a consideration for us because none of our representatives who were flying into Chicago were going to be renting a vehicle. We stayed at the Hyatt Lisle and were very pleased with the facility. The staff at this hotel “strives for five” and they really do. They were most accommodating in every way. We were very pleased with the way this facility handled our meeting. I would highly recommend the Hyatt Lisle.”

Shawn Broda, Sr. Class Marketing Manager
Wilton Enterprises
“With its close proximity to all major toll roads and both airports, Lisle is the ideal location for us to bring in our field staff. It’s easy to get to and offers limitless options for recreation and dining.”

Kendra Seaton
Illinois Coalition Against Sexual Assault
“All of the counselors wanted the Training Session in Lisle. So, I guess you could say, back by popular demand.”

Lori Leenay
CCH Incorporated
“Our sales team chose Lisle for our sales managers meeting this year because of its location to many different points of interest. First, having the choice of Midway or O’Hare airports made scheduling flights and taking advantage of discount fares very attractive. Plus, since we were so close to major highways, getting downtown was convenient for our outing. Finally, with all the restaurant choices, we could have a “taste of Chicago” not far from our meeting location!”

Sara Decatoire, Executive Vice President
IAIFA
“The Illinois Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors is a statewide association, with the majority of our members located in the greater Chicago area. We chose Lisle for our meeting location because of its proximity to Chicago and its easy accessibility from major highways the Lisle are hotels also offered more “bang for the buck” than other suburban properties.”

Joe Condrill, President
Overseas Brats
“Why Lisle for our national convention? Why not!
For the past half dozen or so years I’ve had ongoing conversations with those involved with the Lisle Convention & Visitors Bureau, so each phone call, every e-mail, whenever I received a newsletter from the Lisle Convention & Visitors Bureau, there was more documentation on why not have a function there.

The most attractive features to our organization about Lisle included the central U.S. location, the closeness of the two major airports (O’Hare and Midway) which assured competitive and reasonable airfares, and the number of first class hotels in the area with banquet and meeting facilities willing to work with us.

Lisle is also close enough to the attractions of Chicago, without paying the downtown Chicago hotel prices.

Lisle worked for us!”

Scott Bova, COO
Triangle Education Foundation
“Being a small non-profit, we are very budget conscious. Chicago is a central location to hold our semi annual board meeting, but can be very pricey. Lisle allows us to have the best of both worlds. We can meet in the Chicago area and be cost effective. Lisle is also a great location with excellent restaurants, local shopping and other attractions to entertain my board members while we are not meeting.

The last factor in why I chose Lisle was the quality of service I received both from Melinda Garritano at the Lisle CVB and the sales managers at the hotels. I felt everyone truly wanted my small meeting and treated me as though I was bringing a major convention to the area. This level of support, service and communication made my meeting planning experience a very pleasant one. I will definitely choose Lisle again.”
