Having never stayed in a Holiday Inn, let alone a Holiday Inn Express I wasn't sure what we were letting ourselves in for! The check in was smooth, however when we got to our room we had been given a twin. What I had not realised is that if you book with Laterooms you do not have any power over... More

Stayed one night on business. The hotel is clean and well located and good value for money. Although my bedroom was spaceous and had a good heating/ cooling system the instructions to operete this are not complete. Having turned the heating up to 30 degrees. the room remained icy cold. I discovered the next morning that the electric radiator had... More

The night management on this particular date were outright disgusting. They were rude from the offset and could tell they had it in for someone that night. We were told that we would have to pay extra for my 14 year old little sister because she looks 19 - even though she had her school uniform and year 10 school... More

My wife and I stayed here for two nights in Jan 2012. We used the parking - just £10 per 24hrs, very reasonable for city centre. Booking in and out were very efficient. The NIA, ICC, canal trips, museum and New St are all within 10 mins gentle walk. Ask reception for a map, it certainly helps. Standard Holiday Inn... More

We booked in to this hotel - at a very acceptable rate - so that we could visit the Christmas market, return to base, then go to a concert at Symphony Hall and walk back afterwards, and then have another look at the market the following morning. The hotel proved very well placed for all of this, with its own... More

I'm not a fan of Holiday Inn, nor their Express modes, but this hotel really was great. I went based on the reviews here - the bad one seemed to be old, and since the new manager has been on the case, the reviews have been great.
