“Good hotel”

Reviewed June 12, 2013 NEW

Good hotel for a one night stay before or after Yosemite. Room was clean and comfortable. Not much restaurants around the hotel and not sure the surroundings of the hotel are safe at night (strange city). We arrived late and left early so this was not very important for us. Good pricing

“A great property with only minor quibbles”

Reviewed June 10, 2013

Everything was functional: climate control, LCD tv, Wifi...but no fridge... More

“Nice hotel that is reasonably priced”

Reviewed May 29, 2013

This hotel is very conveniently located just off the 99 in Merced. It was close to the business I needed to attend. I was happy with the room. It was clean and being a Platinum Member I was upgraded to a suite. The bed was comfortable and the room had adequate lighting and work space. The only draw back was... More

Dear Michael G, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience at Holiday Inn Express & Suites Merced! We apologize for the lackluster shower experience; our Kohler Smart Start shower heads feature three settings but they are not at all obvious. There is a metal tab hidden on the back of the shower head which twists... More

“Holiday Express - Merced”

Clean well kept Hotel. It is conveniently located right off the 99-fwy about 35 minuts away from Yosemite & Sequoia national parks. There is a nice free breakfst served with eggs, bacon, breads cereal fruits, and a pancake machine. They have an outdoor pool & jacuzzi that is well kept.

We stay quite frequently in Merced to visit my mother in a nursing home. Usually, we stay at the Marriott. This trip, the Marriott was full so we found Holiday Inn Express. I will say that one of the reviewers made a point that there is no refrigerator in the room. True. However, this place is quite a bit less... More

“Highly recommended for Yosemite”

Reviewed April 23, 2013

We stayed at HI EXPRESS Merced before our trip to Yosemite National Park. The location is good, there is a good Italian restaurant in a walking distance, the room was big and convenient. Highly recommended

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to provide a convenient setting off point for your trip to the park. We hope you had a great breakfast with us before heading out, and got to spend some quality time seeing the sights of Yosemite! More

“Comfortable and Quiet”

Reviewed March 29, 2013

We stayed here for 3 nights in March 2013. I'd like to first state that I read some reviews claiming this hotel doesn't have an elevator. This is 100% inaccurate information. This hotel has an elevator. This is, however, the first Holiday Inn Express that I've stayed in that didn't have a fridge and/microwave in the standard room. We've stayed... More

Thank you for taking the time to provide such a complete review of our hotel! We are very thankful that you mentioned the service provided by our staff.

“Get away from the street....”

Reviewed March 24, 2013

I was in a room away from the freeway, but next to Parsons Ave., which was very noisey. There is an apartment complex across the street, so there is alot of street traffic with all the coming and going. Other than that, the room was larger than I expected, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good and consisted of a... More

Thank you for sharing your recent experience with our hotel! While our windows are double-paned to help abate noise, we understand your concern and are happy to provide a room further from the road when requested. We are pleased that you enjoyed our signature cinnamon rolls! More

“Clean and modern”

Reviewed March 19, 2013

We travel a lot with our pet and have found the Holiday Inn Expresses that DO take dogs are our favorite place to stay. This facility seemed brand new and was very modern. We used our free night and just had to pay for the pet fee of $25. Everything was clean and as expected. The front desk girl was... More

We wish we could take credit for your fantastic review, but is there a chance you have us mistaken for another Holiday Inn Express & Suites? We love our pets, and our pet-owning guests, but when we opened four years ago guest preferences dictated that in addition to being a non-smoking hotel, we unfortunately do not allow pets. We apologize... More
