Wanted to spend time away with a different atmosphere and this took care of all the immediate cares. The bed side hot tub was awesome and was just what we needed. Will be returning soon. More

The hotel was nice and clean. Staff was exceptionally nice at he front desk. Location is convenient to accesss the beach, downtown, or highway. One of the better hotels in Wilmington for business. There was some kind of a problem with the elevators not working due to the heavy rain storm. Will stay here again if our favorite Hampton Inn... More

This is WAY better than the Holiday Inn on Market St. The rooms were a nice and clean, bathroom was a good size and it appeared as though they had just dropped $ into a partial remodel. The staff was extremely friendly and eager to make sure I was happy. More

I usually stay at another area hotel when in town, but at the last minute saw a not good review on here. I didn't want to risk it so i made a change to the Holiday Inn Express. It was actually very nice. Had a king room. It was nothing fancy, but clean and over all nice. The bathroom was... More

I had to go to Wilmington last minute on a business trip and because I am a Priority Club Rewards member decided to stay at a PC hotel and chose the Holiday Inn Express and Suites.

Booked this hotel for a group of senior adults from my church for our week end in Wilmington. We had 14 rooms. When we arrived the staff was right there and took care of us right away.

I was staying in Wilmington with my family for a 4 day weekend because my son was playing tournament baseball at a nearby field.

The check-in agent welcomed me as a Priority Club member with a choice of gifts (I chose popcorn). The room was modern and clean, just what you expect from a Holiday Inn Express. My experience with this chain is that of a reasonably consistent level of quality with no unpleasant surprises. A complaint I have with most hotels is over-the-top... More

I went to Wilmington with a wonderful group of friends on the weekend of June 3rd. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express near the University. It had been newly remodeled and I must say that it was a very nice hotel. I am accustomed to staying at the Hilton and the Marriott, but this hotel was nice in comparison.... More

We took a trip to the beach and stayed here with our 3 year old son. Its very close to a ton of places to eat and the beach.
