Residence Inn Merrillville places you at the intersection of I-65 and US-30 and just 20 miles from the sandy beaches of Indiana Dunes National Park. Our hotel's location in Chicago's metro area puts you just five miles from Deep River Waterpark, the largest waterpark in northwest Indiana, and a little over a mile from the dozens of shops and restaurants at Southlake Mall. Our pet-friendly hotel offers extended-stay suites that feature fully equipped kitchens with stainless-steel appliances, free Wi-Fi, workstations with plenty of natural light, and separate living and sleeping areas. Start each day with a free breakfast buffet that includes hot dishes and grab-and-go options. Take care of business in our lobby media pod with its own flat-screen TV, or go for a swim with the family in our indoor pool and hot tub. And don't forget about our outdoor sports court and BBQ area with a fire pit—perfect for unwinding after a day at the beach.
