We stay quite frequently in Merced to visit my mother in a nursing home. Usually, we stay at the Marriott. This trip, the Marriott was full so we found Holiday Inn Express.

We stayed at HI EXPRESS Merced before our trip to Yosemite National Park. The location is good, there is a good Italian restaurant in a walking distance, the room was big and convenient. Highly recommended

We stayed here for 3 nights in March 2013. I'd like to first state that I read some reviews claiming this hotel doesn't have an elevator. This is 100% inaccurate information. This hotel has an elevator. This is, however, the first Holiday Inn Express that I've stayed in that didn't have a fridge and/microwave in the standard room. We've stayed... More

I was in a room away from the freeway, but next to Parsons Ave., which was very noisey. There is an apartment complex across the street, so there is alot of street traffic with all the coming and going. Other than that, the room was larger than I expected, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good and consisted of a... More

We travel a lot with our pet and have found the Holiday Inn Expresses that DO take dogs are our favorite place to stay. This facility seemed brand new and was very modern.

We wish we could take credit for your fantastic review, but is there a chance you have us mistaken for another Holiday Inn Express & Suites? We love our pets, and our pet-owning guests, but when we opened four years ago guest preferences dictated that in addition to being a non-smoking hotel, we unfortunately do not allow pets.
