This place is well presented and the staff well trained. The rooms are immaculate and so comfortable. The showers are awesome, so clean and powerful! The bed was extremely comfortable and the pillows...awesome!
The only thing, make the breakfasts BIGGER!

Good holiday inn. Staff where helpful with my delayed arrival. Hotel room was small and bed the mattress wasn't the newest or most comfortable but I slept well and it was clean. Hotel overall is a bit tired but helpful staff, good variety for breakfast. I'd stay again

Stayed here a few years ago and I must admit that it was great value for money. The bed was comfy and big and the tv was a good size. Not too big not too small. Great for chilling out and watching a bit of tv at the end of a long day.

Stayed here while attending my daughter's graduation and it was perfect for my needs.
I found the check-in process quick and efficient which I appreciate after travelling. The staff were all pleasant and helpful, rooms clean and tidy and a good breakfast available to set you up for the day, what more do you need?
The only minor negatives are limited parking on site, there are public parking spaces available for £6 per 24hrs so it's not a major problem.
The other issue was the noise from the road if the window is open, it's not too bad though if the window is closed.
Would use this hotel again next time I visit Preston.

As with most big hotels, there was a little noise from other guests, but the service was good and the rooms nice and clean. There was an ample sized bedroom with a big window and the bathroom also had a good size (including bath!).
The breakfast is a standard boring mass produced buffet, but the beds are comfy and everything else is pretty good.

I stayed one night at the Holiday Inn in Preston while on business and found few faults with this hotel. The room itself was excellent, with large comfortable bed, flat-screen TV' wi-fi, tea and coffee making facilities, iron, hairdryer, and trouser press. While my room was overlooking the main road (the other view being the bus station) there was little noise during the night.
Breakfast in the morning was the usual continental offering with fruit juice, tea and coffee, cereal, pastries, cold meats, fruit, porridge, and the hot buffet of full English. The hotel was in a great location, just a few minutes' walk from the centre of Preston and right next to the bus station, although there was no pavement access to the hotel and you took your life in your hands getting to the front door of the hotel. The small car park did also seem to be struggling with the volume of cars, but this was not a problem for me during my stay.
When I'm next in Preston I'd be perfectly happy staying at the Holiday Inn again and would certainly recommend it to anyone.

I was very impressed with my stay - bed was comfortable with a choice of soft or firm pillows, all the usual facilities were provided such as flat screen tv, tea and coffee, nice towels, iron etc. There was also a bath and a good shower which was a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately there weren't plug sockets by the bed which was annoying but not a major issue.
Although my room had a view of the main road I wasn't disturbed by noise during the night. My family had a room overlooking the bus station and were woken up by the current roadworks at around 6am but i was told it wasn't too loud so they got back to sleep fairly easily. Breakfast was also nice - just the usual continental with a full English buffet. The location was also good - 5 minutes walk into the city centre.
My only complaint would be the size of the car park. There are only about 20 spaces but as the hotel was busy people abandoned their cars in the middle of the car park as well. We had to park in the bus station opposite - not too expensive, just inconvenient that we had to drag our cases a bit further. Do not try and park in the NCP car park that they suggest - it's not opposite the hotel and a bit of a walk if you've got heavy cases. Better off just parking in the bus station.
Overall a great stay, just a shame about the parking.

Came to the hotel due to house renovations and I live locally. The hotel reception staff are friendly and smiley. Room is spotless can’t fault it. Special thanks to Irene on the bar who is absolutely lovely and helpful. Nothing is too much for her to help.
