We just returned from a long weekend in Daytona to celebrate a 90th birthday. Our entire family stayed at the Holiday Inn and we found them to be most accommodating. The hotel itself is not five stars, but the service was! This was the best I have experienced in a Holiday Inn or any hotel chain. The facility is relatively... More

Not really impressed, but great location! The best part was having an ocean front balcony. Our first room, the mattress had a horrible smell. We did not realize till bedtime. First thing in the morning I requested a room change. This set the mood for the rest of the stay. I felt the hotel was old and weathered. I would... More

This is a very nice, clean and comfortable hotel with all rooms oceanfront with balconies. Staff were very helpful and pleasant and parking is free. It is in a nice quiet area and very close to a bridge over the intracoastal. We would have appreciated a small table on the balcony to put drinks on. Breakfast was excellent. We will... More

The hotel was really clean and nice. The breakfast had everything you could want including their amazing cinnamon rolls, sausage, eggs, biscuits, bacon, cereal, yogurt, bagels, cream cheese, pancakes, toast, muffins and more. Apple and orange juice, lemonade, water and coffee. The pool was freezing, when I called to ask why the pool was so cold and mentioned that it... More

Having stayed closer to the center of action, my wife and I wanted to find something a little quieter this time. This hotel was located closer to the condos, so there was more of a local feel to this part of the beach. From the time we arrived, we felt like we were honored guests. Unfortunately, the water was down... More
