Comfortable stay at Warwick Holiday Inn Express. Excellent value. The best thing about the hotel was the friendly and helpful staff on reception (evening of 3rd February). We stay in many hotels and the young woman and man on reception were second to none. They really got the stay off to a great start. Thank you. Mrs Walker.

Very comfy bed. Best nights sleep I've had in a long time. Staff lovely & very helpful. Breakfast very tasty & plenty to choose from. Bathroom grubby. Unknown marks on tiled wall. Dust & dirt behind door. Shower more of a dribble. For some reason holiday inn express always put their plug sockets as far away as possible from the mirror. So getting ready is impossible! The last time I stayed, I asked for an extension lead. This time I took my own!

We stayed here on 25th November as 2 adults and a child. We booked it as part of a Warwick castle package - £128 for a day in Warwick castle and a night here including breakfast- that’s outstanding value for money. The room was clean, warm, comfortable. I think the money paid, for the service offered is good value. Parking is £5. It’s right next to McDonald’s so we ate there instead of the hotel - the food choices didn’t look great and it was very busy. Breakfast, we got up early as we were told the hotel was full. Good value again, cereals/fruit/pastries, bacon egg and sausages. Rooms really sound proofed too- to say the hotel was apparently full, didn’t hear other guests. For the money we paid, would definitely book again for a night if we’ve been out for the day. Friendly staff too

Initially we chose another hotel costing double of holiday inn as was in the centre of Stratford upon Avon, later I found holiday inn that's only 10min drive away to the main attractions Shakespeare and Warwick Castle. The main advantage was the cost for a family of 4 for £300! Half the cost of the orginal Hotel in Stratford! We didn't need any fancy swimming pools that closed early but just a clean well located hotel that doesn't break the bank. Plenty of car park spaces £5/day and a play centre and Mcdonald next door and an instavolt charge station and 24hr reception bars/snacks within the hotel. We had the included breakfast most mornings before we headed off the our attractions for the kids and ourselves and ate at outside Warwick castle(racecourse) and zoo sushi(Stratford upon avon). Both places incredible family friendly. The staff at Holiday Inn were incredibly friendly welcoming with a smile and efficient, it's what you need after a 4hr drive. Our toddler felt most welcome and enjoyed his stay here chatting to everyone he met! Rooms had the usual amenities ie TV hairdryer, TV coffee stations and air con machine and downstairs was always available for late night easy snacks. Last night my wife was hungry after a long day, the staff at the bar went the extra mile and made her a sandwich that's not normally available, very grateful for that. Very popular and international and brilliant base for visiting places without breaking the bank just for a weekend trip!

Pros - Good location for access to Warwick and Stratford - Pleasant and professional staff - Easy check in process - Room was clean - Free wi-fi - Tea/coffee/milk replenishments available at reception - Comfy bed - Plenty of towels provided. Cons - Parking costs - Not a great choice at breakfast (scrambled eggs only, no choice of fried eggs or poached eggs, only one jam to chose from - not a selection, no nutella, no hash browns, no mushrooms ) - Bathroom was a little tired - lots of cracked tiles, a cover cap was missing off one of the taps and some kind of fitting cap kept falling off the shower. - Air con system noisy

Minehead, United Kingdom63 contributions21 helpful votes
1 night stay. We felt the room was poorly prepared, bits of wiring trim cover loose laying on floor, small dirty black spots on pillow cases, bathroom tiles coming loose over cistern, less than spotless shower, (pubic hair). Grubby skirting boards. However the room was comfortable and well soundproofed and the black-out curtains worked well. Breakfast, there was no coffee in machine just milk, I asked an assistant to sort but that took nearly 1 hour. The bacon was like thick shoe leather and the Baked Bean bowl has a silly very shallow ladle which meant the counter top was awash with spilt beans because they fell off when people transferred to plate and dropped all over the counter top, during my 1 hour breakfast no one cleaned the spills. Please H.Inn get a proper deep spoon ladle for the beans that can be left in the urn. No drinking water in room other than what you get from bathroom tap. Parking an extra £5 per 24hr stay paid via app or in reception on a machine. Guest park 1 is all loose gravel and when returning at 10pm there was only 1 bay left available. Next door McD's has a 2hr stay car park. Staff seemed polite and eager to help.

The hotel is dated and needs upgrading. My room was very dark, my lock inside the door was hanging off and the receptionist said it couldn’t be fixed for over 24 hours. The carpet was stained and the toilet handle was loose. The only pleasant person was the bartender in the evening. The seats in the reception were badly marked. There is also no phone connection in the rooms.

Fantastic place. Perfect location right off motorway and 5 mins to Warwick castle Staff make the place! Warm and welcoming, particularly the morning/breakfast staff on the 30/10! Housekeeping also deserve a 10/10. Rooms lovely and clean. Only draw back is the room was a little musty. Perhaps ventilate by leaving the window ajar between guests. Plenty of parking(paid but reasonable) nice quiet nights sleep and hearty breakfast to start the day

Room 60 was dark, even in broad daylight. The shower had no water pressure and trickled out. The dark room was because of 2 missing lights. A large one above the bed, which would have made all the difference if it worked. The other, a reading lamp. The lights were reported but nothing was done. The shower worked better if you held the control but this is unsatisfactory.The fault was reported on departure, Saturday 21st October. One of my friends in the adjacent room had the same shower problem. My other friend in the other adjacent room had the same light problem and as written by another customer, dripping air conditioning. Not good enough really. The Premier Inn would give a refund. Will the Holiday Inn Express do the same?
