Ive stayed at a few holiday inn express hotels over the years and knew what to expect from them. However this is the worst 1 ive stayed at. When we pulled into the car park we could see car window glass in a couple of areas of the car park. so not the best of areas even though there are... more

You will not be disappointed if you are looking for a well appointed, comfortable, clean place with helpful and friendly staff. The pictures are true to what it looks like. The breakfasts are very good with plenty of choices. It is very convenient for the area, right off the M5. more

Booked this online at their special rate of £39 for the room - what a bargain for 2 people and it includes breakfast! Reception is modern looking and there was even an ice dispenser and microwave for a cheap ready meal if thats what you want. Room was pleasant though nothing special but more than adequate and it did have... more

Surprised by the quality of this hotel. Arrived late with family of 4 plus dog, speedy check-in and all beds were made up. Room was OK, decor a bit scuffed here and there. Hotel itself was newly renovated, with a fab lobby/restaurant area. Breakfast is where the Express stands out compared to other brands. Here again it was brilliant, with... more

Our only adverse comment on arrival at 1.30pm was being advised check in was 3pm ,however when we requested to find out if the room was ready we only waited for 5 mins.

Another good example of this budget hotel chain really making the effort. Room has all you need for a night or two and is located close the M5 J2 - its not the quietest of locations but not bad considering where it is. Parking in the hotel car park is free but remember to display your parking tag (given on... more

This hotel is situated outside the city centre, but a bus, which comes at regular intervals has you there in around 30 mins. the hotel itself is extremely clean, and staff are very friendly and helpful! I would definitely stay here again more

Used to stay in HIE Oldbury at least once a month but then things changed and me and my collegues have sought other places to stay: A/C units installed in Autumn 2007 make terrible noice and blow air right into your face when you are sleeping in your bed. Turning the A/C off is not tempting in the winter time... more

You don't always get what you pay for you know! I turned up at 10pm expecting to get the last room available (top floor - furthest from the reception) and got a ground floor room. The hotel is called M5 Jct 2 so you sort of expect it to be noisy, but it wasn't. The air con got the room... more
