“Excellent hotel. Not close to much, but businessmen don't need much.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2011

Was in Sacramento on business Aug 15-18th, stayed in this HIE for three nights. Such a great find. They have a shuttle that will pick you up from the Sacramento Airport, with 24hr notice for $15, which is less than SuperShuttle. The drive was pleasant and the driver knew the area well as we talked about Sacramento on the way back to the hotel.

The property is less than two years old and looks great. The lobby was clean and spacious, and the elevator close to the lobby. Hallways were clean and smelled fresh. I requested a room farther back from the freeway, and it was very quiet. I had a king bed room, and it was very clean and spacious. Super comfy bed with a good choice of pillows. Blackout curtains were awesome. Wall-mounted controls for the A/C unit worked great, kept the room at 70º, which was welcomed considering the heat wave Sacramento was having. Bathroom was spotless and all granite, great water pressure.

TV channels were good, with a good selection of on demmand movies. Wireless internet was very quick (and free!), and gave me zero troubles. Furnishings were clean and comfortable.

The buffet breakfast was nice, good variety (changing daily) of pastries, bagels, muffins, eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit, yogurt, milk, juice, coffee, and of course, HIE cinnamon rolls. The only item I didn't enjoy was the "cheese omlette" - which was basically EasyCheese inside a folded egg... Pretty gross. Other than that, the dining area was clean, spacious, with multiple flat-screen tvs on CNN and MSNBC.

As for locaiton and food, most places close to the hotel deliver with a minimum purchase -- I tried things from Domino's Pizza (cheapest minimum order was $7) and enjoyed the chicken wings one night and a baked sub the next.

Checkout was prompt and curteous. I needed duplicates showing a 'zero balance' for work expenses, and they were quick and happy to help.

All in all a great hotel with curteous and helpful staff. If you're in for business in the Northern Sac area, stay here.

“Airport Shuttle is NOT free...everything else was great.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 August 2011 via mobile

Upon arrival to the airport & calling the hotel, we were told that while the shuttle is free, there is an administrative fee of $15pp/ea. way shuttle charge. We had chosen this hotel mostly because of the "free" shuttle option so instead, we paid an extra $20 to pick up our rental car early. It didn't really sting us too badly since we had a room rate under $100, and the hotel is well worth $100+/nt.
The hotel is new, with spotless rooms and public areas (hallways, elevator, breakfast/lounge area, and lobby). The front desk staff and breakfast staff were polite, professional, and helpful. The free full breakfast is a good bargain, with varied options for both hot & cold selections. The quantity and quality of the food/juice/coffee was very good.
Great value for the money.

“Out of the way, but...”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 May 2011

person found this review helpful

This was the third Holiday Express Hotel we stayed in, in as many weeks, and they just seemed to be getting better.
Reception staff was very friendly, and especially helpful. One in particular, though clearly about to leave after her time on the counter, still took the time to answer some queries we had about accessibility into the city. Absolutely friendly and helpful staff appears to be a trademark for this hotel chain.
Room was very spacious and well appointed.
Wonderful complimentary breakfast makes for great starts to the day.
On the down side, the hotel is located at some distance from the city centre, and nearby shopping centres. However, a good light rail service is available nearby, and with a little creativity (in finding parking), offers a very inexpensive means of access into the city.

“Lots of value at this nice Holiday Inn”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 April 2011

Like all Holiday Inns, this one is basic and clean and friendly, but best of all they have a free happy hour on Tuesday and Wednesday nights - beer, wine and real food like pasta and salad or pork roast and rice. I was on my own, traveling for business, and being able to eat and get a glass of wine at the hotel for free was really nice at the end of a long day. Their breakfast bar was awesome, too, with great biscuits and gravy and bacon, etc.
