Called here for a 3 night break in the area. This isn't the most modern of Holiday Inn Express, but I'd served its purpose well for us. We had a rather dark room at the rear of the hotel, not much natural light due to the trees opposite. The rooms are well enough appointed, but in need of a little TLC, the door security catch had certainly seen some abuse! The hotel is dog friendly as well Comfortable bed, ample tea, and coffee making facilities, good toiletries. The free buffet breakfast was well cooked, although limited choice. Very friendly and welcoming staff and a real credit to the IHG brand. The car park is at the rear of the hotel and can be a bit awkward as it is one-way and rather tight to exit.... some people decide to exit via the entry.... not helpful as the hotel shares an access road with McDonald's!
1 night stay whilst travelling for business, good value, comfortable room with all the ameneties needed, great sized shower, quick and simple check in, breakfast was slightly more limited on choice than some other hotels but was very tasty and at the pricepoint the hotel is charged at I have no complaints. this is the former holiday inn building and like many of the takeovers of these buildings its because the prior brand didnt want to go to the expense of a refurb in my opinion - everything was clean, but without the refurb their were a few areas looking a little run down (some flaky paint on the bathroom doorframe, some walls needing a lick of paint, etc) but overall nothing major at a budget hotel pricepoint. would stay again as it hits all my requirements - clean, warm, comfy, parking and wifi
