Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were cozy and well-maintained, and the staff were friendly and helpful. However, the dining experience left something to be desired with limited breakfast options. The location was convenient, although a bit far from restaurants. Overall, a comfortable and welcoming stay.
The hotel provided a great stay overall, with comfortable and well-catered rooms, friendly service, and a convenient location, though some aspects of dining could be improved. The value for money was fair with some minor issues that affected the experience.
The hotel was very warm, but a fan was provided. The rooms were clean and comfortable, had everything needed for an overnight stay. However, there were issues with the temperature and ice availability. The service was excellent with friendly and welcoming staff offering great value breakfast. The location was a bit further out, not great surroundings, and required a fee for parking. The dining was average but had a nice selection. Overall, a comfortable stay with good service.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of pleasant and not so ideal experiences. The rooms were very clean and well-maintained, but the beds were uncomfortable, making it hard for all of us to get a good night's sleep after a long drive. The cooked breakfast wasn't available until later in the day, which was a bit inconvenient. However, the friendly staff and excellent food made it a great value for money overall.
My stay at the hotel was enjoyable overall. The rooms were clean and tidy, although a bit warm despite efforts to cool down, and the breakfast offered a good variety of options. The location was convenient with easy access to transportation and nearby amenities. The staff were exceptional in their service, despite having to handle some difficult clients. However, the lack of vegetarian dining options was a downside.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and warm, offering ample space and everything I needed, yet there was a strange incident with the police. The service was exceptional, especially thanks to Mel, a staff member who went out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay. The location was a bit off and lacked a family-friendly vibe, although it was convenient for transportation. The dining experience was basic but saved by the surrounding amenities and easy access to various eateries. Overall, a decent stay with some quirks.
The hotel rooms had everything you would need and were as expected from a Holiday Inn - clean with comfortable beds. However, the room had a scruffy, badly worn patch of carpet next to the door, wallpaper peeling, and dirty stained carpet. The service was ideal for business folk or those attending concerts at the nearby Ethiad Stadium; the staff was friendly and helpful. The dining options were decent but could be improved, with comments on overcooked sausages and dried-out scrambled eggs. The hotel provided a good variety of choices but sometimes ran out of items in the morning. The facilities were satisfactory, and the price was considered reasonable for the value provided.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and tidy, and the towels were changed daily. The breakfast was ample, offering everything from fruits to bacon, sausages, and eggs. Free parking was a great perk, and the hotel's proximity to a beautiful park made it perfect for family walks. However, the lack of plug sockets was a bit inconvenient. Overall, I had a great time, though there was a minor incident at breakfast due to my grandson's antics!
The hotel offers a mixed experience: the rooms could use some refurbishment, but I enjoyed the neatness and the spotless environment. The service was exceptional, especially when it came to sorting out requests like the sofa bed and ironing facilities, although there seemed to be a lot of pressure during peak times. The location, while good, was a bit distant from the city center and the airport; however, it worked well for our trip, being near a park, a gym, and other amenities. The dining experience was decent, though there's room for improvement. Overall, it was a satisfactory stay.
