“OK but overpriced”

3 of 5 stars
Stockholm, Sweden
25 Apr 2008

2nd stay, last stay was a few years ago. Very friendly reservation service, as well as check-in. This time I came in very late and went directly to sleep. Hence I can't comment the other amenities. Hope next time I'll have time to try out the gym & pool area, which looked nice.

A bit surprised there was no lift at all (yet I was offered a hand). The drab hospital corridor with fitted carpet did not impress either. But the room interior was OK. See pics.

The AC in my room did not work. Something cleaning staff should have indicated to maintenance before selling the room. It was like an unbearable sauna (should have reported it but went straight to bed and figured it would take some time to adjust to cool).

Apart from above, I like their variety of pillows for everyone's need. Also like the form they have to notify maintenance in case something needs a fix (didn't work in my AC case though -- but the aim is good).

The breakfast was good! Had a nice spread of healthy dishes.

Don't go,

The food is pour but cheep, only basic TV, bad Internet Connection, and if you want to use the training facilities you must have training shoes.

There many other hotels in Guildford that are cheaper and located closer to the center.

“Great gym and pool”

Holiday Inn Guildford

Save Review
3 of 5 stars
Northwich, United Kingdom
5 Mar 2008
1/1 found this review helpful

I have stayed here a couple of times.

It is an expensive but average hotel but the gym and pool facilities are excellent. Very large pool, steam room and sauna and a well equiped gym.

No free internet not even in reception which for the price you pay for accomodation I thought was a bit of a rip off.

Decor is a bit shabby especially in the bar. I ate once in the bar and it was again expensive but average food.

Breakfast is good with a really wide range of items and lots of healthy options.

Staff very nice and even though I had a check in problem which I got quite ratty about they remained polite and helpful. As it turned out it was not their fault but my travel agent! Top marks here then.

One drawback for single female travellers is the location which is a bit remote up a dark and winding road. I was usaully able to park close to the hotel which made me feel safer but some of the parking areas looked dark and creepy.

“A well deserved break”

Holiday Inn Guildford

2 Dec 2007
1/1 found this review helpful

We have just enjoyed a wonderful 2 night break at the holiday inn Guildford. The evening meal on our first night was delicious,the staff were very friendly and helpful,the breakfasts were also excellent. be very careful when finding the hotel,follow the signs to the research park.do not go onto the A3 as you will be heading to London(THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO US). Getting into Guildford was very easy by bus just £1.60 return. We had a lovely meal in Guildford on Saturday evening at The White House
