Hotel's Favourite
Stayed for 1 night for a fair in Nuremberg. New hotel, clean, nice bed. Complementary bfast and wifi. Conveniently located: 700m from the train station. A bus takes you directly to the airport; bus stop 250m from hotel. Would stay again. Good alternative for hotels in Nuremberg.

The hotel is new, close to the railway station and in walkable distance to downtown Erlangen. It provides the standard experience of any recent addition to the Holiday Inn Express chain (good & bad).
Cleanliness could be improved. Not sure, if it was a start-up problem, but my bathroom was not cleaned between opened door and wall. That spot is often missed, but in this case there was still dust from construction.
Overall value was great with breakfast included, a great rate due to advanced booking and everything nearby. I would stay again.

This hotel gets 80% of business travelers while 20% leisure travelers. As Erlangen is a small town surrounded by some big companies due to which people from across the globe come and stay when they want to avoid rush of Nuremberg.
Anyday it's not the price but the city which I prefer as HolidayInn is in both Erlangen & Nuremberg but being a business traveler preference is towards Erlangen as the rush is kind of low compared to Nuremberg.
Few things worth mentioning:
Front Desk:5/5 (With me they were at the best of service but yes they can be a bit moody sometimes but nothing can be done as customer service is a big issue in Germany).
Room: 5/5 (Big & Spacious).
Premises: 5/5 (Clean and you can chill around without even a single hustle or bustle of traffic).
Breakfast: 3/5 (If you're staying longer then mostly same buffet is served mostly cold-cuts) etc.
Restaurant: 1/5 (The only serve pizza and there was huge regret that I couldn't have any meal in the hotel itself after tiring day).
Bar: They do serve liquor, cocktails, mocktails.
Tip: They give some basic necessities kit (Shaving Material) etc. complimentary which is a ++, If you forego cleaning of your room then they serve complimentary drink to each adult staying in the room.
Restaurant needs huge improvement as you need to walk at least 10mins. either to city center or 5min. walk to the mall in case you're hungry.

Hotel rooms are spacious and bright. Modern decorated, even equipped with iron and board. Hygiene in the rooms could be better, very dusty.
Friendly staff but during breakfast understaffed. It was extremely busy during breakfast. Most of the time plates were not available. As well food items were not refilled. Despite items were badly refilled, a wide and great selection of hot and cold items were available. Tables were not cleaned and packed with rubbish, dirty plates and cutlery.
Location of the hotel is great, near city center and highway. Spacious underground parking.

Firstly we were given a twin room that was adequate but a single lady was given a large double room!!
Evening meals were bad. The first night the meal was appalling and took four attempts to get it right., with no starter or dessert. the Second night was not much better, after complaining the manager said to blame the tour company as they do not serve evening meals.
Breakfast was a serve-yourself and not a bad selection of meats and some hot items.
No tea-making facilities, but an Ironing board? again told that you can get hot drinks 24 hours from the restaurant yourself but pay at reception each time.
The only good point was it was near the town centre to go out for something.

We felt completely at home in the hotel, a very friendly phone call. We were passing through Austria and decided to stop off in Erlangen. A spontaneous check-in was possible, the employee was very friendly and accommodating. Due to our membership status, we even received a free room upgrade and an additional welcome drink on top. The room was very clean, modernly furnished and facing the garden. In the evening we were out and about in Erlangen, where the location close to the center was very beneficial. In the evening we enjoyed a delicious cocktail at the hotel bar, the house cocktail "Holi-Marry" is highly recommended. Breakfast was included, the selection was absolutely sufficient and very good. What I liked best was the selection of vegetarian and vegan options, I don't know of this in other hotels. Departure was uncomplicated, we had already paid on the day of arrival and were able to use the quick checkout. So we only had to put our room card in the key box in the underground car park. Our conclusion: we will definitely be back!

Everyone I met at the HIE Erlangen were genuinely nice, friendly and professional.
They went above and beyond any expectations I had and made me feel welcome and cared for.
The hotel and rooms were very clean and well maintained throughout my extended stay.
It is very close to the Erlangen Hauptbahnhof (central train station) and Arcaden (mall). Has AC in the room and a great breakfast.
This is a relatively new hotel in Erlangen, but it is now the only hotel I will stay at when I am in Erlangen.
Can't wait to go back!

Stayed overnight returning to UK. Check-in can only be described as shambolic with two desks one guy checking us in had no idea what was going and the other guy stood laughing at us. So no would not recommend this and I work for a US company will be calling travel to say IHG can be an issue.
Once checked in went down for a drink which again was shambolic bar staff had to use reception cash if you wanted to pay.
OK on the good side food the staff in this area were amazing very helpful and such a change. Quality of the food was very good too with plenty of choice.

Nicely renovated hotel. Great location, near highway, train station and city center. Rooms are nice, have everything you need for the stay. Breakfast- small space, not enough vups and plates, but great variety of food.
Ventilation in the bathroom was not working.
Some of the reception ladies very unprofesional and unpolite. A lot of people was checking out, wanted to order a taxi or just had a question- only one lady was working and giving her best, and that other one was just yelling and being rude.
Parking under the hotel, pay per day.
