1) check in, staff made me feel welcome and was happy to take any questions I asked. 2) bar staff, were exceptionally helpful and professional and made me aware of all the days offers and recommendations. The food was really nice aswell considering most holiday inns I’ve stayed in set the bar quite low this completely raised the bar. 3) the room what you pay for is what you get but everything was spotless. Overall the hotel is a credit to the holiday inn name and would stay here again for work and pleasure. PS the breakfast was lush
For the price I cannot complain. The room was spacious and clean. The food was decent, although the chips were a little under. The staff were extremely polite and helpful, especially those working in the bar/restaurant area. Having to pay for parking was disappointing though.
Had over night stay and attended a work training meeting the next day. Room was comfortable with decent TV and bed was lovely and soft. Bar downstairs was spacious and the food and drink was good. Staff were all very helpful and very accommodating at the meeting and couldn't do enough. Food revised for lunch was really good. Thank you!
Was surprised about parking charge (which they waived) easy to deal with team. Had a great stay. Great room for a night in a business trip. WiFi worked. Desk. Plenty of plugs. Clean bathroom. See you again soon. All holiday inns need to think about their parking policy for bona-fide guests and paying meeting attendees. Also, even I found the breakfast poor - and I am no gourmet!
Great value hotel...... room service was of a good standard and good value. Room was clean and maintained to a ok standard. Trainee manager was excellent very diligent and professional. She was very considerate to guests needs and sought advice to ensure things were done right the first time which was refreshing. Check our was disappointing 11am check out time and reception busy but duty desk manager had been for a cigarette break leaving a queue to develop and for someone with issues with standing this did impact more then most, and cigarette smell is my lasting memory of my stay now.
Stayed for 3 nights and a good hotel for the money. My room was more than acceptable and clean, a bit dated but clean. The rest of the hotel was warm and welcoming and again very clean. I have stayed in a few holiday Inn hotels and this is one of the better ones. Only issue I had was the doors being locked at 11 and having to ring a bell to gain entry, could do with a card system to get back in. Did feel like it invaded my privacy as they knew my comings and goings and I only wanted to go out for a smoke. Overall a good stay and slept very well, I didn't even hear the traffic noise from the busy road.
Along the A62 road, this contemporary hotel is a 6-minute walk from Central Park tram station, and 2 miles from both Etihad Stadium and the National Football Museum.
