DoubleTree by Hilton Libertyville-Mundelein

gh good things about this space and the people! The reception was decorated beautifully, and exactly how my friend (the bride) wanted it. The couple worked with Rita and just adore her, she did a fantastic job!

he best I have ever had at a wedding,the food was presented beautifully and tasted even better,everyone at my table agreed.Rita Lavelle, Allan, and Morena were very professional and accommodating,afar cry from what I see at some venues.We spent the night at the hotel and had breakfast the next morning.Everything went great.Probably the best time ever at a wedding.I hope all the weddings I attend are at Doubletree.

turned our venue into a fairy tale. She listened to all of our requests and handled them with class and respect. I cannot recommend this venue and Rita enough if you plan on getting married anytime soon!

ITA LAVELLE! I met her, and she was even better in person & day-of. She made my friends dreams a reality! It was a truly beautiful day, not a dry eye in the house. Thank you to this venue & RITA for making my friend's happiest day the best she could ask for!

amazing staff. I am so grateful for the time and effort she put into making sure our special day was perfect. I definitely recommend this venue and Rita for any event.

up in a room the same week of our wedding. Rita helped give us a room to escape from the craziness of the wedding itself. Rita was kind and patient with us. She even helped bustle my dress. The food was of a 5 star rating. I would say better than wildfire. Everyone raved stating the wedding food was the best. They gave us a great room rate which included breakfast. I enjoyed having my wedding here thanks to Rita.

rooms to the food, it was all amazing. The location served as the perfect all-in-one venue as we had our room block, rehearsal dinner, ceremony and reception here along with our photography. I can’t thank Rita and her team enough for making our Big Day so special.

om designs were updated recently and are a little odd but they are comfortable rooms that provide everything you need. The bridal suite was also very nice and they even gave us one night free. They were also accommodating to my parents' request for extra nights at the special wedding rate and to our request to provide breakfast to our guests at the Karma Pub the morning after the wedding. They also provided a shuttle to and from our wedding venue that was very nice according to our guests. Finally, the pricing of everything was great and they were very responsive to all the questions that we had. I would definitely recommend them for a wedding.

osing my mind. Everything right down to the smallest detail was amazing, it has been a little over a week and I am still hearing about how beautiful wedding and venue was and how amazing the food was. We couldn't have made a better decision.....Thank you for everything!! I would send my ideas, schedules, layout, color patterns and Rita would let me know how that would work out with the time frame and connect me with good sources for ideas. Honestly, when planning a wedding, sometimes you just need people who will listen to all the mumble jumble, and DoubleTree / Karma staff was AMAZING. The timeline was amazing!! PEOPLE ARE STILL RAVING ABOUT THE PASTA STATION. Everyone was just... spectacular. Thank you for everything Rita. A night beyond compare! Spectacular customer service!

was the perfect venue for us. In the early planning stages, we worked with Rita, the hotel’s events coordinator, to iron out every detail leading up to the wedding. She did a great job throughout the year of working with us to make sure everything went as we planned, including creating with my wife a surprise Star Wars cake reveal that became a highlight of our wedding. On the day of our wedding, my wife and I took a break between the photos and dinner to take a minute to ourselves in the suite provided by the hotel, and Rita sent up some appetizers to the room for us to snack on. We really appreciated those personal touches that verified that we picked the right place to hold our reception. On the day of the wedding, everyone at the hotel went above and beyond for us and our guests. Harley and the rest of the hotel staff worked tirelessly to make sure our guests were taken care of; they handled everything from room block coordination to shuttles to and from our ceremony for our guests. Our guests spoke highly of their hotel rooms, the reception hall, and the layout of the hotel which provided a spacious yet aesthetically-pleasing entranceway for the cocktail hour before dinner. We heard nothing but fantastic comments about the food they provided, especially the chicken and steak, which our guests have been complementing us about for the last few weeks. Overall, I highly recommend Double Tree Mundelein-Libertyville for anyone looking to hold their wedding reception here. My company has also been involved in meetings at the hotel, and they’ve similarly done a great job accommodating the needs of our company. I can’t say enough great things about Double Tree and their staff!

Reception | Block hotel room rates | Updated Interior | Fireplace Entry | Indoor Pool | Lawn for Photos | Pet friendly Cons: Cleanup isn't included in wedding package We visited 8 different venues, met with their coordinators and within 5 minutes of meeting Rita, I knew she was the person and the DoubleTree was the place! We booked in the fall of 2014 and Rita worked with us throughout the following year on everything we'd need including but not limited to: Hotel Room Block Ceremony Room Setup Reception Room Setup Coordinating table linens and chairs Menu Tasting Bar Selection Getting us organized days leading up to the wedding Promptly answered e-mails and phone calls about room sizes, table setting options, ceremony room setup styles and more. The day of, Rita and her staff put together the decorations in our ceremony and reception room that we'd brought from home. She addressed the issue of our DJ getting sick and coordinated a replacement that did an amazing job, with out myself or my groom ever knowing there was an issue until the reception. She worked with our friend Pat on setting up so that he could play acoustic music for both the ceremony and reception. Led the wedding party downstairs before the ceremony to make sure that no one saw the bride before it was time. She coordinated having non-alcoholic champagne at a head table that couldn't have alcohol at it. When our ceremony ended on the early side she started the cocktail hour early so that our guests could start celebrating. Our wedding went off with out a hitch and I know it was because Rita and her team went above and beyond any expectation to make sure that our day ran smoothly and was as memorable as possible. I can not recommend Rita, her team and the DoubleTree Libertyville-Mundelein enough.

dn't have to take care of anything the day of. Rita even made sure my room was cleaned early so I could get ready at the hotel (check in is usually 3). Everyone loved that our reception was at a hotel so they could just stumble upstairs. I was disappointed with our food; it was much better at our tasting than it was at our reception. Also, they advertise you'll be there one and only which we found appealing but on our particular wedding day there was a renaissance larping convention in the hotel... my guests found it amusing, but it was quite an eyesore. I guess they mean only wedding not their only event. Overall, if we had to do it over we would pick this venue again. We had such a wonderful wedding.

reception and couldn't have asked for more from the team at DoubleTree Mundelein! Thank you so much!!

my part to make sure everyone that should have been in the hotel room block was. My in laws were never placed in the room block and did not receive the special rate. The transportation was a nightmare. I attempted to speak with a sales associate weeks before to request additional shuttles. I was assured that I had enough transportation. I spoke with a sales associate 3 times the day before my wedding and it was extremely frustrating. In the end, myself, my husband, immediate family and 6 other family friends had to wait about 20 minutes after the reception was over at the venue for a shuttle to make a second trip to retrieve us. Very frustrating after a long but wonderful day! The hotel bar closed at midnight and we were very disappointed to have to walk half a mile for the after party since we chose this hotel partly for the bar. The rooms were nice a spacious with lots of cool built-ins. The bathrooms are newly renovated and nice. If you can figure out and be confident with the transportation plan ahead of time, this hotel would be fine.

pectations--everything we asked for was in place--not one thing overlooked. We had a unique travel theme and unusual centerpieces that needed to be "set up" on each table...19 different set ups..each one perfect! Our out of town guests loved the comfort and cleanliness of the rooms and the convenience to local activities. Everyone commented to us how much they enjoyed the venue, service and food and beverages. Thank you Rita and Doubletree you made our special day better than we had hope for!!

om was booked out of our block Harlie was happy to adjust the price for our guests. Even when the block cut off for reservations ended the hotel was kind enough to extend the discounted price for guests. Also they provided free shuttle services when set number of rooms were booked, we didn't pay a thing!

on questions and requests that come with wedding planning! We worked with Rita Lavelle and she was so attentive to our needs. She had such a stress-free attitude that it made the planning process and day of fun and easy. We couldn't be happier with the space, staff, and the inclusive packages the hotel provided!

from a distance and Deborah was very understanding and flexible. She was able to fit our meetings and tastings into the times we were in town. The food was fantastic, much better than most banquet food I've had in the past. The night of we didn't have to worry about anything, except enjoying ourselves as Deborah and her team had everything covered. There were a few mix ups with meals people received, however, those that spoke up had it corrected immediately. I only wish I could eat the meal again. The reception venue was beautiful and arranged in a way that allowed the dancers to dance and those who just wanted to watch the ability to feel like they were still a part of the action. Overall, this was a great choice for reception venue. A place to party and spend the night all in one. Deborah and her team helped make sure that we enjoyed ourselves and that everything went smoothly.

. The food was delicious! The service was wonderful! They serve the best coffee, a small but delightful detail. The place is clean and has a nice feel to it. When you first walk in there is a fireplace and usually fresh flowers and it always smells and feels welcoming and sophisticated. We had a large wedding so we did our cocktail hour in the lobby and then the reception in their main ballroom. I loved that I was the only Bride around the hotel that day as they only have one ballroom- I didn't have to share my day with any other brides. Our reception ended at midnight but we were able to keep the bar open for our guests who wanted to keep the party going- a safe way to keep people from driving around town looking for a bar. And, when everyone's done for the night, they only have to make it to the elevator- having your reception at a hotel always has that benefit. Overall- I HIGHLY recommend it!

hat wanted to stay "out" after the reception and also great for the following morning breakfast buffet. We did have a little trouble negotiating with certain things to get them how we wanted for our wedding but overall the staff was great, the price was reasonable, and the food was delicious!! Everything was done by the staff, just as was discussed...right down to every detail. We had a fantastic time.
