Clean and tidy throughout .. great service from all colleagues Car parking is tight as shared with another property Breakfast was great ... Quality products and served hot
Top class outfit. First time staying @ holiday inn. Everything was really good from check-in to the breakfast which was included in our room price. The room was spotless and plenty of quality towels. Breakfast was very good & staff were friendly and helpful definitely will use in future
Lovely stay. Great big comfy bed. The hotel was busy but no noise heard in our room. Hot shower with good pressure Nice breakfast, though lacking mushrooms and black pudding. Great selection of cereal, yoghurt and fruit. Nice idea with the help yourself jam, honey and hazelnut spread.
Went over Christmas for a couple of days. Nice and clean. Staff were a good bunch, particularl thanks to Billy for organising the rooms and Conor on check-in giving a warm welcome. Definitely use again.
The Holiday Inn Express always maintains high standards. The only thing it needs is a restaurant for evening meals, but conveniently located for business in Burton.
Friendly staff well organised, great breakfast, good location, clean and tidy rooms. Spot on thx
First class stay at Holiday Inn Express, great professional service from all staff members. Room and breakfast were excellent as was the shower and room facilities (tea, coffee, towels and toiletries), maid service daily and carried out at a sensible time too. Although the only slightly negative comment would be if you have booked a room with a door to an adjoining room it isn't 100% soundproof, saying that I didn't feel the need to ask to be moved to another room because of it. All in all a very pleasant and trouble free three night stay.
Absolutely brilliant stay here while attending a near by festival. Amazing staff who were friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. Room was perfect with a good strong shower, comfy bed and a good choice of pillows. Breakfast was also spot on with decent coffee and lovely well kept clean area to eat. I also want to give extra praise to Matthew who went above and beyond. We will 100% be back next time we’re in the area.
