Had an overnight stay here recently, the hotel is ideally situated near the town centre and close to the local nightlife, the room was typical Holiday Inn and perfectly adequate, the staff were friendly and helpful ,breakfast was good the only small issue i had was the delay in staff bringing coffee and tea to our table and by the time we had it delivered we had finished eating. There was a bus trip in at that time and to be fair breakfast was really busy, however i'd have no hesitation in returning.

This is a typical 3* HI hotel-not typical are the staff. Raised it from 2/5 to 4/5. Josie in the restaurant, Chris in the bar, Julie and Mark on reception all 5*. Friendly, kind and responsive to everyone they came into contact with.

I have stated in this hotel on two occasions now for business.
The staff are very friendly and helpful.
The rooms are modern, clean and have all the amenities you could need.
The beds are comfortable with a choice of soft or firm pillows.
Breakfast couldn't be faulted with a great choice of full English, cereals, porridge, toast, fruit, ect.
The only downside to staying here is the parking. It's very limited but there is a cheap multi-storey across the road.

Stayed here for 2 nights, upon arrival we were greeted by friendly reception staff, the room was very clean and plenty of shower gel, hand wash and tea, coffee making facilities, nothing seemed too much trouble, would definitely return. The mini gym is also good and has great views whilst you work out.

Stayed just one night. Nice comfortable bed in a room with a view of the now listed Bus Station in Preston with the hills in the distance. Excellent location - very handy for town. Very limited car parking but they make you aware of this when you book. We got there about 3pm and got a space, so not an issue for us.

I had an unbelievable experience with the central reservations office inc a manager, so bad that I phoned the hotel directly only to find that my booking was not only the wrong price for the three nights and that it did not have B&B which was agreed with central reservations and that it was also on their website. Thank god for Donna a very professional & polite lady who went out of her way to help me and sort out my booking,unfortunately Donna was going on holiday that night so a big thank you for sorting everything out, on arrival a lovely young man called Mark met us and sorted us out a coffee whilst our room was being prepared, he was excellent in the three days we were there and gave us maps & directions to all the venues that we required he could not do enough for us. In all the hotel was clean & all the staff were fantastic including a very cheerful Josie in the breakfast room. Will definately return Mr & Mrs Owen room 518, 25th 26th &27th June 2015

Stayed here on two separate at beginning and end of coach trip to Scotland. Nice clean and comfortable room, friendly staff and good food. Why not five stars from me? Haphazard service at dinner - but the hotel was heaving , so perhaps understandable.

We use holiday inn loads of times and in lots of places but this was one of the best. The staff were very, very friendly and helpful and more efficient than most of the chain hotels we use. The room was lovely and exceptionally clean. The wooden screens on the Windows are a revelation. Breakfast was one of the nicest I've had and I love the fact that tea and coffee is still brought to the table instead of the dreadful machines that we seem to have to suffer these days!

First impression of room...... Great! Three quarter size twin beds, choice of pillows, thick mattress on a sprung base. Just what tired visitors need. Meals excellent and staff very helpful. We both slept very well, rested and ready for the days travels. Disappointed we did not come back to this one after our break.

Proficient staff. Very comfy bed. Clean room. Good food. What more could you ask for?
The service I received, especially from the young lady from Glasgow (in the restaurant last night and this morning) was commendable. I left happy, which made my onward jouney to Scotland on the coach even more enjoyable. Thank you. :-)

The room was big and airy, with a really comfortable bed. The staff on reception (both times was a man with a Liverpool accent) was really friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again, we both slept like logs and we were able to park outside.

Stayed here a couple of weeks ago with a friend for a Uni reunion.
We rang ahead letting them know we wanted to check in early as we were arriving at 12pm, they advised they would try their best as the hotel wasn't too busy. We arrived and we were checked in without any bother or hassle, the scouse gentleman on reception was lovely and helpful and made an effort to chat and joke.
The room was clean and the bed and pillows were very comfy.
Check out was easy and the girls on reception again made an effort to have conversation that didn't seem forced and put on.
Overall we had a very nice stay made even better by the friendly staff. Value for money.

We stayed here as a large group for one night as were in Preston to watch our football team in a match at Deepdale.
The hotel is located very close to the city centre, just a five minute walk to the main bars and pubs.
The room was on the fifth floor with a good city view. The room was clean and furnished to a decent standard.
The staff we met across the hotel were really friendly. The Scouse guy on reception was a good laugh! We drank in the hotel bar before our night out. It was chilled out and they were more than happy for us to move furniture around so we could watch the live football on the TV in our large group!
The hotel was also quite well located for the football on the Sunday - I'd say just over a 20 minute walk from the hotel to Deepdale.
Good value for money at £58 for a twin room. Would stay again if we ever needed to head back to Preston!

My brother has recently stayed at the Holiday Inn Ring ay Preston. He was attending a wedding near Preston and asked me to call them for parking advice. I spoke to a young man on reception called Mark. he was extremely helpful and went out of his way to give us advice on the best taxi firm to use, what to expect to be charged and the various options if their car park was full. He really went the extra mile and we would like to thank him. Janet Winter & Paul Boden. Bolton

Arrived at hotel, reception staff friendly enough, room on 2nd floor, so used the stairs, found that the stair well was in need of a fresh paint job and quite in-welcoming. Room itself, clean and fresh, instead of curtains there was timber shutters on rollers which was a bit strange. Used the resturant in the evening, all was nice and fresh, buffet style breakfast agin was fresh, although I asked waitress for 2nd pot of tea, am still waiting for that pot. Having stayed in many Holiday Inns and found to be one I won't rush back to in a hurry.

In comparison to the Premier Inn in London, this was a bargain at 45 pounds per night. Room was comfortable. Again no drawers. What is it with hotels in Britain? Free WiFi but poor quality. Generally quiet except for being awakened at 5:00 by a group of Yahoos in the hallway in a drunken stupor. Steps away from the centre of the City. Staff were again very friendly except for being berated immediately on arrival for being half an hour early for booking in.

We were driving from Edinburgh to Liverpool on Thursday the 7th of May 2015 and decided to find somewhere to stay the night . To our delight we saw the Holiday Inn hotel parking was at a premium so I parked over the door way and went to reception and was greeted by a very very helpfully lady who not only organised a room for us but cam down to the car park and moved a car to give us a car park near the door (I have a mobility problem) The next morning I tried to book a train from Liverpool to London and another lady at reception did this for me and a gentleman from reservations was kind enough to do some printing for me which meant he had to go up a couple of floors twice all of this was done with a smile . Room good breakfast great service outstanding.

Usual standard chain hotel. Clean and tidy. Rooms are averages size. Wifi is reliable. Restaurant menu is not special but provides good variety and is the same as the bar menu. Mainly occupied by people there on business. On site car park is small so overflow is in the bus station car park across the road.

Stayed there on 6/5/15. A well located hotel. Rooms comfortable and well appointed. Breakfasts are excellent. I feel compelled to commend both the reception and breakfast staff, who I found to be friendly, attentive and helpful. A brief but pleasant stay.

Perfect for a few days in Preston, staff very very friendly, had some great conversation at times, great location, very central to everything.
Ate in the restaurant once, good choice, also tried the bar menu and it was quite tasty in more of an informal setting, either way I was well fed.
Would definitely return if visiting again!!
