Very convenient stopover with very comfortable beds. Slight problem with sink which was resolved within minutes of it being reported. Good breakfast with food being topped up all the time and tables cleared and cleaned promptly. All staff were very helpful and impressive.

Really happy with our stay, we only stayed one night as part of a long journey but I knew booking a Holiday Inn Express would be worth it. Very reasonably priced, great comfortable room, hot shower and nice breakfast in the morning.

Lovely, well-presented hotel with very friendly, helpful staff. Evening food was VERY expensive and breakfast was a buffet, but not a great selection. No plug sockets anywhere near the bed. Even just a USB each side would have been handy!

Good value hotel near the M5. Quiet spot, clean room, decent breakfast buffet (was very busy). Unusually for a budget hotel the air conditioning actually worked. Reception staff friendly. All in all a good stay.

Lady at front desk was helpful in changing our room to a pet free room, which was a good start, hotel generally well cleaned, however room had dust build up in areas where the hoover seems to just miss regularly. Dinner and Breakfast is a no go area if you require anything fresh due to any dietary requirements as the general answer is its all pre-made and the chef can't do anything else, so you have to make do with what is given.
