Holiday Inn Express Reviews 700

I wish I could leave a 0 star reviews I’m that disgusting by the management of this company. The way the staff are treated is completely unfair. A gentleman was refused holiday to bury his child and you post TikTok’s to show your such a good company but it’s all just for show. Will never be using holiday inn again!

Booked a stay at your hotel, was denied to leave for my aunts funeral.

DOESNT EVEN DESERVE 1*!!!
THEY DENIED STAFF MEMBER TO GO BURY HIS 4 YEAR OLD CHILD. DO NOT STAY HERE WHERE BLOOD IS ON THEI HANDS!!

Treat your workers with some respect.

Horrible company , they are horrible to there employees, a man who’s 4 year old daughter had died who works there requested a holiday request to bury his daughter in peace and they wouldn’t even accept it and he’s working night shifts and everything

If you could give less than 1 star I would. This company has no humanity, no empathy and no respect for their employees. They wouldn’t let one of their employees one day off to bury his CHILD. How disgusting can someone be to deny this. Just because this man was a manager does not mean he isn’t entitled to go and say goodbye to his baby girl.
Trust me, nobody wants to go and stay at such a vile and despicable establishment!!! There are far better options out there that have the emotional capacity to care about the death of a child

Holiday inn express Birmingham. Not allowing a worker to go bury his 4 year old child when requested. If they treat their staff like this it speaks volumes, a 4 year old child that no parent should have to bury to begin with.. pure greed

They don’t care about you, the staff or anyone. They didn’t accept a gentleman in the staff to bury his own 4 year old. Shame on them and shame on you if you support this again!

This manager was not allowed leave to bury his child.
Shame on you Holiday in Express Birmingham

Dont stay here! They treat the staff so badly! A worker his daughter sadly died and they didn't let him take the day of for her funeral! It's a dad grieving! They even suspended him the same day bcs they didn't want to deal with the grief he had! Never go to this they! If they treat there staff like that idk what more happens there! A grieving dad should be able to go to his own daughters funeral and a week or more for grieving! Like are yall not human!?

Not letting someone take the day off to bury his daughter is disgraceful. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

I wouldn’t stay here the managers 4 year old child died and they refused him time off to attend the funeral. He had to go and do a morning shift before attending his child’s funeral the same day.

Holiday Inn should be ashamed!!!

Holiday Inn Express Fleet UK.
The Hotel is apparently 3 years old. As a disabled senior I found the facilities excellent enabling me to use my wheelchair through most of the hotel, with the added convenience of a wheelchair accessible room, we were very comfortable . The staff are from a bygone era where sevvice is a priority and we found they were all professional, attentive but not intrusive. We will definitely be staying there again. Thank you Bardak and team.

The room was clean and quiet!
The staff were courteous and the complimentary breakfast was great!

Holiday Inn Express - Alabaster, AL
Day 1: The Front Desk Clerk KYLE was absolutely HORRIBLE! When I first checked in, she
regaled me with personal information telling me how beautiful everyone thought she was
and that people were intimidated by her beauty.
When I finally got checked in, I went to my room and found numerous swarming Asian
beetles. Went back downstairs and asked for another room. She told me there were no
more rooms and that if I changed hotels, I would still be charged. She said if one landed on
me, it was good luck and it would bring me lots of money. KYLE then offered to get me the
hotel’s Shop Vac so I could vacuum them up! She was nice enough to tell me I could keep
the Shop Vac in my room in case I needed to clean up more beetles. Another desk clerk
who was there offered to suck them up for me.
After unpacking and taking my shoes off, I walked around on the carpet and it was so dirty
that my feet were black. The shower unit was also dirty and had chipped places where
someone had puttied the places but not sanded or cleaned them.
Day 2: I was with my granddaughter’s travel softball team and in between our games, we all
sat in the lobby and ate lunch while watching football. KYLE came over to the table where
my family and I were sitting and tossed down some trash bags and a bottle of cleaner. She
told us that we needed to clean up our trash, take it out to the DUMPSTER and clean the
tables with the spray bottle she had brought over! (Umm….excuse me KYLE, I don’t work
here! Not going to suck up bugs and not going to sanitize tables.) Of course, we were
definitely going to remove our trash and put it in the trash can IN THE LOBBY without being
chastised by KYLE!
Several moments later, KYLE started yelling at our 12 year old girls for being too loud. All
they were doing is messing with TikTok on their phones. They were getting ready to
FaceTime with their batting coach so they were NOT MISBEHAVING! One of the parents
asked KYLE not to address their children but to address the parents and they would handle
the girls. KYLE became very confrontational and stomped over to where we were sitting
and continued to rant.
One of the parents tried to talk to KYLE and diffuse the situation. The parent never raised
her voice and spoke to KYLE respectfully and professionally. KYLE continued to get
ANGRIER and LOUDER! One of the other parents asked for the manager but KYLE refused
the request.
I had previously had my phone out in order to video my granddaughter and her teammates
FaceTiming with their coach. I decided to tape what was unfolding in front of me in case it
became an issue later. When KYLE saw that I was taping the interaction (I was not trying to
hide it), she came over to me and started yelling and tried to slap the phone out of my hand!
She then went and grabbed her phone and started taping US. I really don’t think this is legal
for an employee to video their guests and her laying her hands on me could be considered
assault.
I quit taping and left to call IHG corporate. They told me they could do nothing if I was still
at the hotel and they would transfer me to the Property Manager. Of course, their call went
unanswered.
When I went back to the lobby area, KYLE and her coworker were sitting at the front desk
giggling with each other. A few minutes later, two police officers came in. They asked KYLE
which parents she had a problem with and she pointed out two of the Moms – both of
whom were African American. That’s when we felt like this had taken a RACIST turn. The
police officers then told the two Moms that they needed to pack their bags and vacate the
hotel.
This was totally uncalled for and when I showed the police officers the video footage, they
agreed that we had done NOTHING WRONG and that it was definitely all KYLE. They also
stated they had no choice but to do as KYLE asked since it was private property. They also
stated that they were called to this location frequently.
While reading reviews on this hotel, we found that KYLE had pulled this kind of thing more
than once. She has been called out by name on numerous occasions and not in a good
way.
My family and I did not feel comfortable OR safe staying in this hostile environment so we
decided to check out a day early. When I went to pack, my room was once again Beetle
Infested. They were even IN MY BED!
This facility has NASTY rooms and NASTY employees! Turn around and RUN!!!!

Holiday inn express old Trafford a absolute disgrace to get back my deposit 5 days have gone and still no deposit back in my account absolute joke but they can take £5 out for parking never again

Manager canceled my reservation when I called in to see if I could get an early check in. She became hostile and was aggressive with me on the phone then canceled my reservation. We are flood victims from the 1,000!yr flood that just happened and she did not care that she left us homeless. We had book and paid for a whole week at $169 per night Corporate was unwilling to do anything location is independently owned and operated so if they want to blacklist you because they don’t like the way you look or if they’re having a bad day they have every right to do so and there’s nothing that can be done about it leaving you absolutely with nowhere to sleep. I would avoid this location at all cost. It’s not worth the risk of ending up having to sleep in your car.

I booked two nights at Holiday Inn Express Porto Exponor. I had stayed there 6 or 7 times before. When I got confirmation, I found that I had booked through Guest Reservations: a separate company, who charged me about $50 more than the hotel for the same rooms and dates. I wanted to make a complaint to Holiday Inns or its parent (IHG) about this. I wanted to suggest that Holiday Inns should not allow their rooms to be sold by Guest Reservations or other agents who charge ridiculous extra service charges. Despite repeatedly asking the staff at the hotel how I could send in a complaint, they failed/refused to help me.

I like the location and the rooms.

I also discovered that booking through an agent meant that I was not entitled to loyalty points. However the staff did adjust this policy in my favour after I made a big fuss.
