Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This hotels location is very convenient being just an easy 10 minute walk from the terminal. Upon arriving staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming. The room was compact, but spotlessly clean and perfect for a single nights stay. The food offer is a little limited as expected at a Holiday Inn Express, however the quality was good and beverages were fine.

No fault with the hotel. Just wondering why my card was charged with an extra 7euŕo and 8 cent. I paid 107.96 euro on arrival. Not a lot of money but curious about it. Other than that the hotel is comfortable and breakfast is very good. The beds are excellent. It's a great amenity to have for early morning flights.

We stayed here for 1 night after our return flight. We booked a double room with a pull out sofa as a family of 4 the room was quite small and the sofa bed was not comfortable but it did the job for just the 1 night. Good location just a short walk from the airport as we were not picking up our car from air parks until the following day. Breakfast was included the following morning with a good choice for us all. All in all it was a pleasant stay and we would stay here again.

We stayed here the night before a flight, had a room over looking the planes at the airport which was great, although for a family of 4 the room felt very cramped, 1 double bed and 1 double sofa bed, perhaps a family room would be a better choice for us next time. Smooth and efficient check in and a great breakfast the next day. The buffet area clean and well maintained with plenty of choice. Bus stop a short walk with regular services into town. Would return.

Fast check-in. 10 minutes on foot from the airport. Nice helpful staff, good breakfast from 6:30, iron + ironing board and hairdryer in the room. Lots of sockets and lights. Electric kettle and coffee/tea + sugar and milk, walk-in shower. Some noise was heard from the corridor and the upper floor. A little fridge would come in handy. Otherwise nothing I can think of.

Horrendously rude receptionist. I asked for her name and how to complain. She said "there is nothing to complain about", and if I were to make fuss, she would cancel our reservation. I insisted on details of complaints procedure, so she cancelled our reservation and threw us out on the street at 1am in the morning, 3deg in January, with 3 suitcases. We are now writing to the head office. There are 3 other hotels nearby, give your money to them, especially if your flight depends on this stay.

Booked as part of a park and stay package with Holiday Extras (parked at Air Parks), stayed on our return from holiday so arrived about 11pm. Walked from the terminal as others said it’s ’only 10 minutes’ and we had no idea where to catch/get off a bus that was also mentioned in reviews. Dragging a 20kg case and hand luggage wasn’t much fun though, just grateful it wasn’t raining!! Warmly welcomed by Mark (I think) and pleasantly surprised by the room. Compact but nice and had everything you need. Upon waking was surprised how quiet it was given our proximity to the runway. Excellent double glazing and blackout curtains! Good shower. Nice breakfast although 9:30am finish was a bit of a rush for us. The two ladies on duty were chatting about shifts and looking at phones while the young lad was clearing tables and working! The milk had run out but they just said tip it forward there’s some left in there! Why not put what’s left in a jug so people could use it easier!! This was our first ever stay at a Holiday Inn and I thought it good overall although I’d probably not book this one again if we had luggage to get to/from terminal.

Hotel is in a great location and staff are super friendly and breakfast is good. The rooms on the other hand are a different matter. We went into 204 and instantly smelt cigarette smoke which is not nice so we went to reception and they moved us to 526. Now when you get to the airport after a flight you don’t want to mess around as you are tired. We got into 526 and the smell had been covered up but there was food in the corner of the room. We went to sleep and then at 0756 the cleaner was hovering and banging and cleaning in the room across the way. So much for a relaxing sleep.
