The hotel staff were very good. The hotel itself is a bit dated. Uncomfortable bed, weak shower and poor lighting options.

Good location for my visit to Taunton

I enjoyed my stay at the Holiday Inn Express Taunton East. It was just what I needed for my visit. Reception staff were welcoming and helpful. My room and bathroom were good and comfortable. Breakfast was good too. I would stay at this hotel again when visiting Taunton and the wider area.

Roomy and Comfortable

When booking other hotel stays for 5 of us, we have had to book two separate rooms. Not at Holiday Inn Express Taunton. We had one room for all five of us which was exceptionally sized and we all had plenty of space within the room. It is a budget hotel and the price should reflect expectations, however, we were immensely impressed with our stay, boosted even more so with breakfast being included. We will consider staying again if we are ever in the area again!

For a one night stop over it was very convenient and reasonable price which included breakfast. A little crowded when trying to access self service breakfast but staff regularly refilled food stations.
