Stayed over at this hotel as it was a friends 30th, The party room was a good size and was furnished/decorated to a good standard
The hotel is old and in need of an upgrade but the rooms clean and had no complaints
The staff are a mixed bag, Breakfast staff de-motivated and I feel breakfast in other hotels makes or breaks the stay with the personality of the staff. Some of the reception staff again just don’t look happy, maybe management need to give them a moral boost? Bar staff at the function friendly and a lot more personality.
Overall a good stay for what we paid, with an update or even just the management making the staff happier to work this could be a great hotel!

Since arriving on a bank holiday weekend 2 night stay the staff were faultless and very helpful. My opinion of the hotel was surprisingly clean i was expecting something to fail, but i was very happy with the facilities and especially the breakfast! the staff was so kind 1 polite young lady offered to play with baby whilst we had breakfast so we can eat in peace. The car park was very busy on the weekend we arrived but soon cleared up the following day. So to summarise i would happily stay here again

On this occasion it would be rude of me not to write a compliment.
Courteous staff, clean room, super breakfast with a great choice,
A n utter steal at £55 B&B to lay one's head down for the night.
Well done to all concerned.

I would be very happy to stay here again. The staff were very helpful and the food was excellent.
There is also ample parking across from the hotel in the bus terminal, which if you talk to the hotel staff first costs £4 a day. However, there is very little parking outside the hotel, which means you have to pay for the car park first and then check in. The rooms are very clean and of an excellent standard for the price of the room. The breakfast was also excellent.

I can say its average. I booked a room for One night. Standard room or so I thought. Tired and a little weary I made my way to the fifth floor. Opened the door. Two single beds. So I went back down to reception. Could I have a double bed please. What did you book ? A double room I state well it's a standard and they are allocated on arrival ok? And anyway we are fully booked. Rooms are stuffy the view in the distance over the bus station is great. Good points. It's near the bus station and a short walk to the train station. The beer is cold and the chicken caesar salad was exceptional. I would give the scrambled egg at breakfast a miss too distinctly watery and grainy. Not what I would expect of a holiday inn at all

Had a double room with everything in it was very clean and comfortable. As a 1 night stop was perfectly adequate, wouldn't stay any longer as nothing really there The service in the restaurant for both evening meal and breakfast was very good food in evening nothing special, breakfast a lot more choice

Stayed here last weekend (5th floor, double room), room was nice with just a few tiny niggles (bedside light not working, wobbly toilet seat, hole in net curtains).
Breakfast was fantastic with a very relaxed atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff members - one of the best hotel breakfasts we've had in years!
Only strange thing is that after 10pm the lift doesn't go to the ground floor meaning after our evening out we had to climb a flight of stairs, walk wast a deserted reception desk to get the lift from 1st to 5th floor, as an asthma sufferer this isn't really ideal but how anyone in a wheelchair would manage I have no idea?!
Overall was please though and would deffo stay again.

The welcome and general nature of the staff at this hotel was superb! A group of us stayed last weekend and I must say the staff made it all the more special. The rooms were clean, stylish and large and the bar area was surprisngly decent too.
We shall stay again, and we certainly recommend.

Staff on the front desk were friendly, explained everything we needed to know. Room had plenty of space and nice and clean. Nice comfy double bed and aircon was a bonus.
The hotel was in a great central location for us for a night out in Preston, would definitely use this hotel again.

Arrived late after a long drive with the family. Easy to find and satnav took us straight there.
Rooms was spacious and the beds comfortable.
The Children loved the Blue Nightlight in the bathroom which is a nice idea and the shower was massive ! (according to my 8 yr old!)
bathroom lighting was a little dim and considering I had booked a room with twin double beds, we only had towels for 2 people (was too late to ask for more as we only realised the next morning.
Breakfast was ok, nothing to shout about, we arrived at 09:15 for breakfast and the hot selection was very poor (no fresh food being put out) so we had to have the overcooked offerings that were left.
Good supply of Coffee and cereals and Orange juice and the tables were cleaned away quickly after people had departed.
Checkin / out was swift and painfree also.
Defiantly one I will use again on trips up north, and within 30 miles of Blackpool if you donot want to stay in the town.
