We were pleasaantly surprisewd that this hotel has a welcome on Mon thru Thurs. serving free beer and wine along with snacks. This certainly made the stay much more enjoyable and we felt helped defray the cost of the room which we thought was a little high for this area. Overall we would consider staying again.

My wife and I stayed at the Holiday Inn Express in Kearney as a mid-way pit stop in our Chicago-to-Aspen ski vacation road trip. Wow, never in my life would I have realized that Nebraska is such a long and flat state! Anyway, we found ourselves in dire need of a good night's sleep, and Kearney proved to have a... More

Along with our recent renovation, our diligent staff works hard to maintain a clean, comfortable, and pleasing environment for our guests. With respect to our bathroom amenities, our line... More

We stayed here last night and I highly recommend it! This hotel was super clean. The beds were comfortable and the heating unit in the room allowed for the fan to be on all night for some white noise to help us sleep (or you can have it on auto). We stayed in a queen suite so had two huge... More

Thank you for taking the time to review our property. Our staff is delighted to hear great compliments about our renovation, especially our new A/C Systems. The queen suites are some of our most requested rooms. The dual TV's definitely come in handy when traveling with children. We know the importance of starting the day right and we were happy... More

An updated Holiday Inn Express, newer carpet and soft goods. A very pleasant stopover to and from Colorado for the holidays. The rooms are spacious, but have thin walls. The breakfast area is open and airy, but the attendant needs help on the weekends to keep with demand. Friendly staff. A good break on a long drive.

My family stayed at the hotel on a road trip stop-over. We booked a 2 queen bed suite, and as is typical for HI Express the suite was really just one room. This room however lacked the typical half-wall between the sitting area and the sleeping area that have seen in other HI Express suites I have stayed in. We... More
