We stayed in the Holiday Inn Express for two nights in April and found it to be very suitable for the corporate traveller. The name of the hotel is very appropriate as it ticks all the boxes for guests on business.The rooms we stayed in were a reasonable size, they were very clean with all required amenities. The rooms faced the back of the hotel and were very quiet. The hotel is located on a busy London road. The entrances to the room via the hallway were painted different colours, which was a useful point to help remind the traveller of the location of their room. A complimentary buffet breakfast was provided. We stayed on 12th April and then on 19th April. By the 19th April it was obvious that numbers staying in the hotel had started to increase and the hotel seemed a lot busier. We were able to hail a cab easily from outside the Holiday Inn and it only took us five minutes to reach Moorgate, which was the location for our work. We will stay at this hotel in the future when working in Moorgate.

I am writing this as I lay in my room as the group next door are bloody noisy! The hotel itself is lovely with comfortable rooms and very clean however I'm really glad they supply ears plugs as the walls are paper thin. The people in room next door are really noisy and you can hear everything. Very frustrating when trying to relax watching TV and they're talking and then shouting and then talking then slamming doors. So resorted to turning TV off and plugging in ear plugs. Really not relaxing at all. Am actually contemplating ringing reception to complain. Don't expect that from a hotel. It is a shame cause I love the hotel and the staff are all so friendly and welcoming and I would have rated this much higher otherwise. I realise it's London and that it's a busy place however you don't expect to hear in depth conversations from the room next door. Stayed in Holiday Inn Express' before elsewhere and never had any problems.

This HIX is near tube stations and within walking of City attractions. Good for groups with ample seating for meals. Very comfortable beds and with early afternoon maid service makes it a great place for late afternoon naps to ready oneself for nighttime activities. Best to ask for side street views if you want quiet as Old Street can be noisy in the early mornings.
