I was booked here for work and I did not have the luxury of choosing my hotel. It was situated on the outskirts of town, so location is good. Plenty of parking and use of the gym next door also good. I was put in a room downstairs, but asked to be changed due to being a lone female traveller.... More

We have stayed here several times over the past year without a problem and have been very happy. This time, though, was nothing like that. We had booked for 3 nights but for some reason were not entered onto the system properly on checking in. This resulted in a charge to my credit card the following morning. This was rectified... More

Generally ok hotel, however the staff on reception in the evenings seemed to have a strange attitude. We weren't made to feel welcome and the girl on reception seemed annoyed when we asked about anything. The shower in the room was very difficult to get to a consistent temperature and fluctuated from freezing to scalding. Breakfast staff were much nicer... More

I stayed here for two nights on business. First night cost £79 and second night £99, shocking for the quality! Looking at the prices on here they range from £49 to £51 so shows I was ripped off! Reception never mentioned the complimentary gym! Breakfast was £9!! There was no veggie option, I was told I can have everything except... More

Firstly, I stayed here and would stay again but only for business. Reasons i'd go back are location and that there is a complimentary access to a gym 30 metres away. To manage your expectations (so you don't have a bad experience). It's not a normal holiday inn. It's feels very old and whilst you can see its been refurbed... More

The advantage of this being different from the average Hoilday Inn for me was: a soft bed, a better choice of TV channels, a cooked to order breakfast and that it was very quiet. However, the drawback was that the rooms were not quite up to the standard of most Holiday Inns and there was no lounge bar area to... More

Dirty, run down, damp smell in room, over priced, stained curtains and carpets, in urgent need of refurbishment or closed down. Will never stay again and it is reputationally damaging for the Holiday Inn.

Nice hotel - was surprised it was so well equipped/located for the rate I paid. Massive rooms, nice welcome and service - and free wifi. Easy to find, right near the centre of Aylesbury, but with some surrounding countryside.
