Disappointing considering…

Soundproofing in room and hotel generally needs vastly improving. I stood in the corridor outside my room and could not only hear people walking above me, but could follow the sound all the way down the upstairs corridor. Stayed in a couple of Wetherspoon hotels recently and couldn’t hear anything from the noise of the pub downstairs. Also the Wetherspoon champs the holiday inn by offering more in room such as more variety of complementary drinks and snacks. Found a mass of cobwebs under the pelmet and by the curtains in my room. One of the lights in the bathroom wasn’t working and neither were most of the USB plugs.

Huge room, nice bar and restaurant areas. All the usual good things you come to expect from Holiday Inn Express which I’ve stayed at for hundred of times. Service at bar shortly after check in was awful and easily the worst example that I’ve experienced in any hotel worldwide in the past 40 years. Won’t go into details here but very poor way to behave indeed and not how HIE usually do things.

A Perfect Location

We came to Shrewsbury to travel by train to Cardiff to go to see a rugby match. The Holiday Express was a perfect location. The staff were friendly, the bar and small restaurant were adequate - we had a light evening meal which was good. We stayed 2 nights, the room and bed were very comfortable and the breakfasts were absolutely superb - the best we have had in any hotel. It was also very quiet and safe to leave our car.
