We visit California once a year on vacation. We have stayed at different hotels, but our stay at Holiday Inn Express was by far the best care that we have ever experienced. The management at the Holiday Inn Express paid special and detailed attention to courtesy, friendlyness and cleaniness. The staff was very friendly and were very helpful when asked... More

Wow, just read a negative review of this hotel and couldn't believe it. This was hands down the best hotel I've ever stayed in. It had all the best qualities one looks for when one decides on a place to stay. We came from Maryland to visit my son who was relocated to San Clemente. This hotel was perfect in... More

Lobby smells like a petstore. 90% of staff were unhelpful and rude. Very noisy next to freeway. Breakfast was awful. Noisy aircon/hard to set constant temperature. Very expensive for such a crap place. They requested $400 to use meeting room for 3 hours - how disgraceful!!!!

During the course of a recent family road trip around California, Arizona, Utah and Nevada I had occasion to stay at the Holiday Inn Express in San Clemente. We arrived early at San Clemente after two nights at a dodgy Quality Inn in Hollywood and what a difference. We were greeted by a young lady called Guzy who allowed us... More

First time in San Clemente with family, enjoyed this hotel for a week, clean, great beds, good breakfast ,something for everyone, friendly staff, short drive to the beach, close to freeway.

The staff was very friendly and accommodating, even calling us to let us know when our room was ready. The room was very... More

The hotel is in first class condition and is maintained to a high standard with a... More

The hotel is just off the highway but incredibly quiet, just a 10 minute drive to the beach and restaurants. The complementary breakfast was great for an express hotel. With fresh eggs, bacon, fruit, muffins and more! The staff was friendly and helpfull and the rooms spacious and well equipted. I will return!!
