When you are away on business you are looking for an easy check in, a decent meal, a nice bed, awesome shower and a good breakfast! Staples I think!
The holiday inn delivers on the breakfast and dinner.
The parking issues makes this hotel rather unusual - having to walk through a bus station at 10pm with my clothes was not what I was expecting.
Shower is mediocre and room is average. I personally wouldn't stay here again due to the parking and therefore couldn't justify the slightly extra expense compared to a premier inn or Travelodge.
On a positive staff are really friendly and the bar / restaurant area is inviting and modern.

My wife and I had tickets for Shawn Klush at The Guild Hall Preston on Friday. We wanted a hotel within a short walking distance so the Holiday Inn is perfect, about a 10 minute journey.
Check in was swift and friendly, although reception is on the 1st floor. Car park is small but we managed to find a spot. Room was a good size with comfortable king size bed. Very clean and tidy. Bathroom was larger than some hotels with plenty of room around the sink for toiletries, etc.
Friday was a rush to get to Preston after work, so decided to eat in the restaurant before the show. Both my wife and I had soup of the day, very hot with warm bread. I had the steak and chips, wife a panneni and chips. Both meals hot and well cooked, very enjoyable. With drinks and a tip a fare price.
Show at the Preston Guild Hall was excellent, although views spoiled for some fans with people standing near the stage dancing. Shawn Klush is the best Elvis tribute act I have ever seen. He bears a frightening resemblance to The King himself. The overall production was first class with excellent sound and lighting. Made extra special with backing singers sweet inspiration including an original member from 1969/77. A fantastic evening and a must for any Elvis fan.
Had breakfast in the hotel which was enjoyable although some items on the fry up could have been warmer. Something to do with the temperature on the bay marie according to my wife who works in catering.
Overall I would highly recommend the Holiday Inn for any events which are on a The Preston Guild Hall. I would definitely return here again.

My wife and I stayed here for one night last week to attend a show at the Guildhall. This is no more than a five minute walk away. The room was fine as were the public areas although the car park at the hotel is fairly small. Very friendly reception staff and the breakfast deal at £10 per room (£5 per person for two) is fantastic value. The food was terrific too. We were very happy visitors and the place offers good value for money.

Clean, tidy hotel. All facilities you need and lovely food . Staff very attentive, well worth a visit.
We went for a weekend on a trip and chose this hotel as was dubious about the other hotels that were also offered on similar trips , (Grand National).

Irene, was a brilliant very friendly host and our afternoon tea was perfect. Will definitely be coming back. Afternoon tea was so filling we had to take some home, cakes were delicious. Irene kept us filled up with tea and the little vase of fresh flowers was great.

Went today with my wife for a lovely afternoon tea, it was a birthday present from our granddaughter. The table service was 1st class from a lovely lady called Irene and we both thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. There was that much to eat neither of us managed to finish it, so Irene gave us both a plastic container box to take away with us all that was left....Thanks Irene

Afternoon Tea, Excellent attentive and obliging waitress (Irene?). Food was attractive, well presented and appetising. Situated in the dining room adjacent to reception, light airy and comfortable. Spotlessly clean and easy to get to. Disabled parking right outside door and a short walk to our dining area. Thank you for a lovely experience.

I can’t thank Rochelle & the team, Tracy, Abi, James, Katie, Irene just a few, enough for what they did for us. They made sure our day was perfect, Rochelle is amazing and such a perfectionist, just what any bride would want. I was so stressed leading up to the wedding with one thing and another but on the day I felt so calm and relaxed. Rochelle and Jimmy told me not to worry about a thing, that was their jobs! but to be honest they were that organised and professional.. but I must add friendly.. that there was nothing at all to worry about. They were absolutely amazing. I would 1000% recommend them and the hotel. Every member of staff at the hotel are wonderful and after visiting a number of times for different things have become like a second family, nothing is too much trouble for any of them.
Next the chef.. Keaton, all I can say is WOW, our guests will be talking about our ‘Mad Hatters Afternoon Tea’ for a long time.. it was amazing, both to look at and to taste, he certainly excelled!
On to our photographer Jo Bishop Photography she is fantastic, the best.. I am camera shy, but Jo made me feel so comfortable and confident. She is such a lovely person, we couldn’t have wished or wanted anyone else. It was like having your best friend there and having a good laugh. Saying that, she is very professional, but knows how to bring out the best in you. I didn’t want her to go when she’d finished, not to carry on working, I just enjoyed her company that much.
So to anyone booking the Mecure Hotel Georgian House & Jo Bishop Photography, you have booked a wonderful place and the best people to make your wedding perfect ❤️ and I wish you all the happiness in the world xx
