This is second time stopped here, which says something in itself - last time was with my other half and this travelling alone. A modern unit with superb staff and immaculate rooms. Central to Watford and close to most routes. My only critisims relate to "finding the hotel" - its not easy to find if your new to Watford and... More

Gotta get the bad bits done first - bottle of Bulmers - £4.95 - eeeek! Expensive! Limited parking (though we did manage to squeeze a space) - a little noisy at night! Beds are a little soft for me and only one pillow (no good to me) That's all I can think of! Now with the good - reception staff... More

Every member of staff we encountered through the booking system to the last person we spoke to in reception were polite and did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable. We wanted a clean bedroom with comfortable bed and located near to transport for a reasonable cost, this is exactly what we got. The breakfast was basic but free,... More

The hotel is located right next to Watford Junction station and is also easily accessed by the main roads. The parking at the back of the hotel is very limited and spaces are tight. Probably not a good choice if you are travelling by car unless parking at the station is convenient. Reception staff were friendly and food at the... More

This hotel is clean and convenient for train station. Found it quite noisy,with people talking in corridors late at night also in heels in room above. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was poor, so much so that even though it was included in price we went elsewhere.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review about our hotel. I am sorry that you were disturbed by other noisy guests. We have 98 bedrooms in total and on fully booked nights it can be a very busy hotel and consequently some noise is invevitable, I am afraid. As far as the breakfast is concerned, it is... More

Stayed here for one night in May. Room was large and clean. Reception is nice. One downside for me was the breakfast, but considering what we paid I'm not going to make a big issue of it. Very convenient for Watford Junction railway station. Car park spaces are very limited so I would suggest parking at the railway station car... More

I like Holiday Inn Express for predictability. It's like McDonald's, you know what you get, regardless of location. This HIE is no exception. The hotel is clean, helpful staff, room seemed to be bigger than other HIE's I've stayed at but this may be due to the different bed configuration. The only real issue I had was with the internet...
