Hotel is located off a main A road, but this suited us as we just needed a stop over. Don't let the road proximity put you off, the room was very very quiet.

Easy to find, well signposted, and large car park in front of the hotel, which is free and plenty spaces.

Check in was swift and staff were friendly, professional and polite and explained everything clearly, eg breakfast/ check out etc.

Room was large, although, bed seemed to be a standard smallish double. We stay in many Hinn Express and this was the smallest.. Next time we may opt for a twin.

Room however, was clean, and standard hotel amenities. Bathroom was clean and shower good and powerful.

We didn’t make use of the hotel bar in the evening for food or drinks, but opted to dine in the “miller and carter” next door, which was very very good. Bear in mind that there is no where else around unless you drive into town.

Breakfast the next morning was pleasant. Not too busy, even at 9am on a Sunday morning. All food seemed to be cooked fresh and was replenished quickly. I especially enjoy the fresh hot croissant, delish!

Check out, like check in was quick and efficient.

Overall, a very pleasant stay.

Holiday Inn Express Kettering was welcoming and spotlessly clean.

Room was immaculate and a good size, bed was comfortable.
It felt well aired and very hygienic.
Blackout curtains were excellent.

Had the usual assortment of hot drinks and kettle but also a hairdryer, iron and ironing board which was a useful addition

Bathroom was well sized with a good shower and lovely gel washes at sink.

Staff throughout were friendly, courteous and professional.
Lady at breakfast was so happy and friendly.
Breakfast was simple but well-cooked and nice quality.

Great seller for this hotel is Miller and Carter across the shared car park that means you can take your evening meal there.

We booked the Holiday Inn Express for guests for our wedding in September and they were fab. We got a really reasonable room rate to accommodate 50+ rooms and it was straight forward for our guests to book their rooms. On the day, the staff were efficient in getting lots of guests all arriving at the same time checked into their rooms. The rooms were clean, comfy with everything you need for a short stay. Breakfast was held yourself buffet with a good mix of hot and cold food that catered to lots of different tastes

Check in was easy, first day breakfast sat ran out of lots of items. Asked for room to be made up, this was followed up and assurance made by reception, we were out all day got home late evening to find beds completely unmade and new towels thrown onto the bed, spoke to night reception, they apologized offered to fix. Midnight at this point and we were with our children, showed them what housekeeping had done, they agreed poor show and offered me a complimentary bottle of water ! Went to breakfast earlier next morning and they had ran out even sooner ! Not sure why there is a housekeeping charge !

Good afternoon Thank you for taking the time to leave us your review. I apologise about the issues with housekeeping, this has been raised with our management team. I apologise for the drop in standards as this is not our normal standard. In regards to the issues with breakfast, we would like to know the dates that you have stayed so that we can look into specifically what has happened. If you would like to contact me directly, then please email events@exhikettering.co.uk. There has been a few mornings lately where larger groups have entered breakfast at the same time and we have been busier than expected. I apologise for any inconvenience caused. Please be assured that there is no housekeeping charge. Our guests will have their nightly charge and have never been charged a housekeeping fee. The charges would be clearly stated on your VAT receipt. We would be happy to discuss this further. Kind regards Allen Tew Sales Coordinator

After one night in a farmhouse B&B (not my choice) with very little sleep followed by a busy day, I was tired driving and already booked into HIE Kettering.

The sight of the hotel was welcoming to my tired eyes, The friendly, happy reception made me smile for the first time that day and the room was very welcoming.for I laid on the bed watching television and woke up early the following morning having slept over 12 hours!!!

HIE Breakfast is HIE breakfast but when you haven't eaten properly in the past 24 hours it was a feast!!

As an IHG member I have stayed at several Holiday Inn hotels all over the world, this in my opinion is one of the best.
I stayed for two nights on business, my room was as you would expect from a holiday inn. Clean, comfortable with a decent hot shower.
I ate dinner in the hotel on my first night and the food was cooked to an excellent standard.
There is also a Miller and Carter immediately over the road which is also an excellent food option.
On a personal note I would say the staff at this hotel was excellent and for me pushes my rating to a 5 star. All the way from check - in, to serving dinner and drinks at the bar, they were always very friendly and polite and I was made to feel like a valued guest at all times.
I will be staying here again in a few weeks and I look forward to my next visit!

Attended a 2 day course for work 20.9.22 - 22.9.22 and wanted to let everyone know what a lovely place this is to stay Not only was the room impeccably clean, comfortable and had everything to hand including an iron and an ironing board, the staff were also so attentive, polite and approachable.
I would also like to extend a special "thank you" to Jordan, (who rang my room to let me know my food was ready - outstanding!), and to Chelsea, both lovely and always smiling. These pair went above and beyond to make me feel so welcome and made my stay such a pleasant experience. I hope the Manager reads this and realises what valuable assets to the hotel you both are and gives you both a pay rise! 😉

Tracy from Tamworth, Staffs - booked in name of "Puncher".

An inexpensive, basic hotel to stay in over night and relax in. Really clean, lovely little rooms, with nice, super plush beds and pillows, lots of space, nice furnishings and a modern layout. Really good price for the night.

There's a Miller and Carter's restaurant just over the road too. The hotel is close to the A43 so it's convenient to get to both Kettering, the local attractions there, and there's a great many connections to various A roads from there.

Not much more I can say, it's worth the money, and it's got quite a few things within walking distance, an Esso garage next door and a Starbucks, the Holiday Inn also has a charging point station for electric cars.
