A huge hotel complex a mile out of downtown Stamford. Service was first rate, truly exceptional, nothing was too much trouble for the front desk staff. Cleanliness and housekeeping were great, the only drawback was the buffet style self service breakfast, so far so what you cry; the crockery was polystyrene and the cutlery plastic. Now I'm all for cutting costs so long as they're passed on to the customer, but really - disposable plates, coffee cups and cutlery? The coffee was served from pump thermos dispensers which also annoys me. But the beds were excellent, the shower powerful and hot and the wifi is free.

This is not a luxury, high service facility. So while some of the reviewers criticize the place for having mediocre service, I urge them to look back at their bill - this place is very inexpensive, and one way a facility keeps cost down is by cutting personnel. But for a basic hotel, it is excellent. Big rooms with recent makeover. The public spaces and the rooms are kept very clean. The rooms have decent amenities like soaps, shampoo, etc. Little extras like a small frig and a microwave add to your comfort. I will definitely stay here again when I come to Stamford. Again, for the price it really can't be beat. If you need a bellboy and room service, go someplace else and pay for it.

Freshly remodeled hotel. the place is clean and there is almost no sign of the buildings former life. (You have to look hard to find the old details inside.) you have to park in a garage behind the building and it can be a bit of a walk if you are traveling alone and have an ailment or a bunch of stuff. When walking to the Holiday Inn Express from the garage, they have you walk thru another section of the building that is dated and has not been remodeled. The hotel does have a valet service if you wanted for $12.

Nice and clean hotel. What you can expect from holiday inn express. Big rooms. The service in the hotel was very good, can definately not say the same of the bar in the connected stamford plaza hotel.
Breakfast was ok but I can't stand the styrofoam cutlery and plates. There were also a few very uninspired employees hanging around in the breakfast area, waiting for guests to leave and quickly wipe the table off before continuing to hang around.
