Having had my office Christmas Party at the Holiday Inn, Aylesbury, and had a great time, I was looking forward to my fiancee's Christmas Party at the Holiday Inn, Sandy. It was a bit of a culture shock. The Aylesbury Holiday Inn is beautiful, with a swimming pool and gym and my office party was all inclusive, with unlimited drinks... More

Stayed for 4 nights with work. Appeared clean at first. First noticed stale smell going up the stairs, room smelled of sweaty feet ! Horrendously noisy as only 15 feet from A1 which makes the room vibrate with heavy trucks. Ridiculous wait for service at breakfast and / or dinner / bar as normally only one maybe two staff between... More

Stayed at Holiday Inn Garden Court A1 Sandy-Bedford for one night prior to an early morning flight from Stansted Airport. We were warmly greeted at reception and we were in our room within minutes. The room was dated but spacious and well equipped including TV with a handful of channels, tea and coffee facilities, an incredibly comfortable bed and a... More

We have been using Holiday Inn for some time, and the Bedrooms, albeit clean, were outdated to the extent the 'Corporate Blue' used in other facilities as far back as 2000, were not in evidence here. The rooms were tired, old, bed was soft and old, the furniture was old stained and should really be in a skip. The duty... More

Dear Guest, I would like to apologise that your stay at the Holiday Inn Garden Court Sandy fell below your expectations. As a Garden Court, our corporate identity is separate from that of the newly rebranded Holiday Inns, however, we do price ourselves to reflect this. Thank you for your positive comments regarding the Duty Manager and her helpfulness. We... More

If you research hotels in the area, particularly IHG franchises, you'll wonder why it is so much cheaper. But in this case you get value for money. OK, it's tired and I haven't eaten there since the first time I stayed (there are good pubs in the Bedfordshire villages nearby), but on the good side it is probably the only... More

For the price....it's ok, although I wouldn't recommend eating here....very expensive fried food with poor service from the waiting staff (we didn't eat on this trip, but learn't this the last time). The Gentleman who checked us in was very helpful & pleasant & greeted us with a cheery smile. Suggest you bring your own water & any other beverage... More

For the price, I was expecting an express style room but to my surprise it was a very good fully equipped 4star room. I needed drinking water late at night, called reception and room service but no one answered. Walked to the reception and all around the hotel and couldn't find one single staff. I ended up driving to a... More

I recently stayed as part of a larger party for a business trip. The welcome from reception was pleasant, and the person on duty very helpful when I requested a room change, as I'd been given one facing the road and the noise was unbearable. However, despite being a quiet Sunday night, apparently none of my colleagues could switch rooms... More
