Maybe the "Holidome" was cool 20 or 30 years ago, but today it just looks old. Pros: -- Everything is spotlessly clean. -- Beds are very comfortable. -- Staff are terrific, especially at the front desk; also the bartender. -- Food in the CW restaurant is very good. I had the filet medallions and my wife enjoyed the walleye. No... More

Spent a few days in Alpena and stayed at the Holiday Inn, which is centrally located to a number of restaurants, trails, a nice gym, and other recreational locations. Hotel staff was very courteous and always helpful (if was our first time in the area). Kelly and the rest of the front desk staff helped us with restaurant recommendations, which... More

Probably the most friendly staff I have encountered in my travels including the high priced, fancy resorts in the Caribbean. The workers at the Holiday Inn Alpena seemed to go out of their way to say hello and offer any help finding a local restaurant or a cup of coffee before hours. Hotel rooms and common areas are clean and... More

This hotel was clean, I will give it that. It was in need of a facelift, and the water in the shower would change from hot to cold so something to watch out for. The thing that got me with this hotel was the fact that we needed several pens for a meeting I was in town for. The hotel... More

We got a room that was pool side and our sliding doors walked you right onto the pool area, with pool tables, mini putt putt and hot tub. There were tables too to lounge near our room so we could visit and keep up with the kids. There was nothing "special" about the room, but it was accommodating. No breakfast... More

Hi Cindi, Thank you for staying with us. I am so glad your family enjoyed our indoor recreation center. I am a bit baffled by your comment that you were charged for a towel. I have pulled up your folio and there is no charge for a towel. The only charges are for room and tax. If your receipt shows... More

I stayed for business. The hotel is comfortable and clean, however is in need of renovations. The staff is very friendly and room was always cleaned well. I never ate in the hotel, but would recommend eating at the Courtyard - gotta try the garlic bread. Overall this was a decent hotel for a small town.

I am glad you had a pleasant stay at our hotel. I am confused about the steps only comment as we do have an elevator to the second floor. I hope you will stay with us again and perhaps give CW's (our restaurant) a try. We have a great grilled lunch buffet! More

I am disabled and wanted to stay here with my wife and two young girls. I pay cash for all my transactions because I am severely disabled and collect disability. We like to get away occasionally, letting the kids have some pool fun. They charged me top dollar for a room with wallpaper peeling, stains on the ceiling, and big... More

We enjoyed this hotel. It is a typical Holidome with the pool, hottub and play area. The location is good and the rooms were clean. This isn't a 5 star hotel but great for a family out for some fun! The staff was very friendly and helpful. I always ask ahead of time for extra pillows and rarely get them,... More

This hotel was just average, sort of outdated, toilet did not flush well, you had to hold the handle down for a minute or so. The air conditioner/heater sounded like it was going to throw a rod.. Reasonable eating establishments on site, open courtyard (under roof) for the swimming pool. Again if you pay $25.00 more you get a $4.00... More

Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your recent stay. I am somewhat confused about the breakfast comment. The cost for our Best for Breakfast promotion is $15 more than our regular rate, but you get a $20 voucher for breakfast. Perhaps you qualified for a reduced room rate. If that is the case, then you... More
