Express By Holiday Inn Birmingham City Centre, Birmingham

Advantages: Cheapish, comfortable, clean and new
Disadvantages: on a ringroad - but not a problem really

...This was my first ever experience of a Holiday Inn Express Hotel, but having stayed at this hotel recently I am sure I will be using this chain again. I found the Holiday Inn Express Cheltenham to be excellent value for money,very clean, well situated and with all the elements for a peaceful and agreable overnight stay. Location: The hotel is situated right in the centre of Cheltenham, a town which is on the edge of the Cotswolds and an agreable destination in its own right. The hotel was easily found being opposite "The Brewery", a new food and retail development that is well sign posted. The building is very new looking and plastered white - the Holiday Inn Express new logo makes it easy to spot. Parking is in the neighbouring NCP carpark, which was secure enough, or the hotel is a short stroll from the High Street. The... Read review

Advantages: Good location but not in City centre.
Disadvantages: None if booked for what it is for.

...was taken in an area near reception, that doubles as the bar Area at night. For the price i was pleasantly surprised. TEA/COFFEE/HOT CHOC. 2 kinds of Fruit Juice. Full Range of cerials and Muslie. Toast Machine that toasted quite quickly. White and Wholemeal Bread. Bread Rolls. Coisaants and small pastries. Youghurts plane and flavoured. Butter/Jams and prepacked chucks of cheese. As said this area at night serves as a Bar, prices in line with most hotel Bars. The location is about 4 miles from Peterborogh City Centre, about a £6 taxi ride, and no problem getting taxis. Checkout very good and quick. So for a qucik stop over at very good rates I would certainly recommend this Hotel and if attending a Show at the Peterborough Show Ground you are right there. Also next door is a HARVESTER RESTAURANT.... Read review

Advantages: Good deals
Disadvantages: Can be expensive without discount

...My company used Premier Lodges for all business travel but have recently changed to Holiday Inn Express. This is good for those not paying the bill, but can be expensive if it is coming out of your own pocket. I recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Express next to the NEC in Birmingham - watch out if an event is on at the NEC - the price rockets to £100 per night!! still I was not paying. The lounge area is comfortable with a small but expensive bar (the Village Inn next door is much better value). The rooms are large and clean with the usual tea / coffee etc. All have computer points and even supply pens & paper for your use. The shower is excellent. Breakfast, which is included in the price is contenental but you can eat as much as you like and it was fresh and to a high standard. A good touch, if you say at these premises a lot is...
