We had a much better experience in this hotel than we did in our only previous visit. We were fortunate to park in the small car park at the front of the hotel, but there is also a nearby car park at the bus station.
The room was clean and worked well for us. The bar was good. All the staff were pleasant. We had a good stay.

We stayed here last weekend for a night. The hotel is perfectly situated for exploring Preston city centre. The room was well maintained and crystal clean. The staff we encountered during our stay were all really nice particularly Ash on the bar. The bar is a lovely area to relax in whether you are on business and need to work, you want to lounge back in front of the TV or play a bit of pool. All in all great stay

Fantastic stay here recently. From arrival until we left, every staff member we came in contact with were fantastic. Super friendly and helpful. All up for a chat including the housekeeping staff. It was really refreshing.
Free parking, able to check in early and close to everything in the centre. The beds were comfortable and room was clean and presentable. Only downside is the bathrooms definitely need renovating in this hotel. The rooms and communal areas are lovely though.
We would happily stay in this Holiday Inn again. The staff here deserve all the recognition.

Had a 1 night stop over, on a coach holiday travelling up to Scotland. For that reason it has 5 * for location. The room was superb, spotlessly clean, the beds were so comfy, and lovely toiletries, quality towels etc. The whole place is clean and has a great ambience. Dinner was great and so was the breakfast. The staff were all so friendly and helpful. What an absolute delight. We will be looking to use this company again as we have never stayed in one before ***** highly recommended πŸ‘

Fantastic Hotel. Staff are friendly and welcoming. I'll be coming back here if I stay in preston again in the future. Great location next to bus station. The food was delicious and yummy. And the drinks are fabulous. There are plenty of plugs to charge up any device.

Perfect hotel to explore the area lovely staff lovely food the place is a credit to the name! I’m here for one night with work but would happily stay longer it’s clearly had a good lick of paint and an update which is done brilliantly the only remnants left of the old hotel is the inside of the lift which probably costs a fortune to replace so don’t bother!
Go and explore Preston is soooooo much nicer than I thought!!

Very central- directly opposite the bus station. All the staff we dealt with were friendly and helpful. Food in the restaurant was very good and a good range of options on the menu. Breakfast was buffet style but refreshed regularly. Again a good choice.

All the staff i encountered were super friendly starting with the Receptionist who checked me in and when i checked out remembered where i'd been. Had an evening meal on the 2 nights of my 3 nights stay, all good, as was breakfast!
Have to question why the air-con is not switched on until April though. There is a note saying if you need a fan request one, so i did, and i needed that to cool down, my room temperature was 23c, and at night a little to warm for me without a fan. The fan guard was a little dusty if i'm being picky so perhaps the hotel could give these some attention. During my stay there was roadworks outside, not something the HI can control ofc, with the fan on it blocked out most of the noise so i still had a reasonable nights sleep. I was pleased with the general cleanliness of my room, my room high up so had nice view of the Bus Station and Car Park. I came by train which is around 15 mins walk from Preston Station to the hotel and i made sure i'd walk past the Wallace and Gromit statue in the Market place! i'd be happy to stay here again, but perhaps needs a little refurb in parts?

Parking is in short supply at the actual hotel car park but both times I managed to get a space, there is a car park just nearby if you can't get in.

Hotel is clean, rooms are good and recently refurbed, but the staff are really good - Leah on reception, Jess in the bar and Charlotte on restaurant duty all couldn't have been more pleasant and accommodating, which made the stay a real pleasure.

Stayed here due to our train terminating here due to a storm. The staff were brilliant. We were getting a bus the next day so we’re happy to see that the bus station was right next door. We ate at the hotel and the food was great. Had a late check out which was perfect.

Great example of the Holiday Inn brand!
Ash and Kamila were truly wonderful in the restaurant and all the staff were top notch and professional.
Room was well looked after and I was made to feel properly welcome. Hope to use this location whenever I’m here.

Stayed in the Holiday Inn Preston, for 4 nights. I have to say this hotel is fab.

Rooms were lovely and spotlessly clean.
What stood out for me was the
Friendliness of all the staff.
The reception staff were so welcoming and friendly.

The Bar staff were amazing too.
Charlotte and the polish lady and the Bar manager couldn't do
enough for me.Even though I liked bitter in a san miguel glass.πŸ˜†
They were all just top class..
The housekeeping staff also were amazing and always said good morning and all the staff at breakfast again top class.
I have stayed in a lot of hotels
over the years, but without a doubt, the staff at the Holiday Inn Preston, leave all of them behind in courtesy and friendliness.
Well done to all, this is how to run a hotel.πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

This place is an experience in itself. Stayed here for 5 days everyone right from reception to cleaning staff deliver an implacable service. The breakfast was superb and on request they helped me with my dietary restrictions as well. Their restaurant has fabulous food options and quite moderately priced. Worth every penny spent !!! Splendid experience !!!
