Holiday Inn Express Stafford by IHG - Stafford

The hotel is close to M6, so good to get back onto your journey, the hotel is okay, the best part was the breakfast buffet.

The room we were in was a family room, had a double bed which was really comfortable to sleep on, but the sofa bed was not, I felt the bars coming through the thin mattress not a good sleep at all especially when you have had a long drive to it and another to get to our destination another 200 miles away, the staff was very helpful and friendly.

The day we arrived was very hot and muggy, and the room was stifling hot, only had a fan to try and keep cool.

Arriving at 3am in the morning, exhausted and mentally tired as car broke down. Check in was done very quickly. The beds were comfy, bathroom clean and shower was a welcome delight. Rooms were quiet and grateful for the shower gel. Thank you!

We stayed here as part of a trip across the UK to visit the RAF museum. The staff member upon checkin was happy and helpful. The rooms were basic but absolutely fine for what we needed and more importantly they were very clean!

There is a large restaurant across the carpark (not Maccas!) and their service and food was fantastic too.

Overall a great experience and great value for money. Would definitely stay again.

I stayed at the holiday inn express in Stafford most weeks Monday to Friday for about a year as I was working in the area.

The room was what you expect from a HIE and was comfortable and warm, the bed in the room I had and I had the same room most of the time, the bathroom was small but good enough and the shower was good. The breakfast always looked good but I did not have except for some fruit and a coffee.

The hotel was always busy, but the staff were always very helpful and welcoming and any quarries I may of had were very quick to answer or resolve. Being there as long as I was all the staff knew my name and would allay have time to speak, that makes a difference being away from home for long periods.

Having access to a microwave is a great additional perk of this hotel for those like myself who are fed up with eating in restaurants or living on takeaway’s.

In all the staff are excellent and a big thank you for making life easy.

I would recommend the hotel if you are in the area.

Location ideal for Stafford and surrounding areas. Clean tidy rooms at a great price with a very good breakfast thrown in too. Staff lovely, helpful and polite. Can't say much more really. Would definitely use again if in the area.

Very good one night hotel stay. I was travelling back from Cornwall to Lake District and it worked perfectly for me. The room was quite large with additional sofa. The hotel does not have aircon however a fan was provided, window was open and curtains closed to keep the heat out (28 C). The room was dog friendly with £30 charge per room (not per dog). Room was clean and bed was comfortable. Outside there is mcdonald's and a pub with nice food and drink. Not much grass for dogs but good enough, very close to motorway. Young lady at the reception was really nice. Breakfast is average but plenty to choose from. I would stay again if I am in the area.

Exceeded our expectations. Decent sized, well equipped bedroom and en-suite with comfortable good sized bed. Friendly helpful staff and much better breakfast included in the price than we’ve had at much more expensive hotels. Plenty of parking. Dog friendly. Pub doing food next door. Just off the M6 but didn’t hear the traffic. Will be visiting again!

Just stayed for a work trip for two nights. Staff are super friendly and helpful.
Rooms are good enough. But no aircon, there was a fan but the rooms are very hot.

Biggest issue is Nescafé coffee machine at breakfast. Utterly disgusting and meant I just didn’t drink it. In fact I wouldn’t book breakfast if I stay again, purely based on the frankly dreadful coffee.

I don’t expect a barista but travelling for business I do expect a decent enough coffee.
