Holiday Inn Express

Just a typical budget hotel, but in a very good spot for the airport. Plain and simple, but nice staff to look after you, you could do worse than this if all you need is a budget type that would please you. We encourage you to read and if you feel it’s worth the review, would you kindly click the “I like” button and support our efforts for you. We arrived at this smart looking budget hotel, with its five disabled bays (photo 1). The main entrance has automatic sliding doors and it’s on the level (photo 2). It’s a typical looking budget hotel, (photo 3) with a minimum fussed reception desk, and a bar (photo 4) with comfortable seating. There is a clean, tidy basic well cared for restaurant (photo 5) serving buffet style breakfast (photo 6). A corridor leads you to lift and bedrooms (photo 7), and along here we saw a weighing machine to check your suitcase before boarding your plane, (photo 8) and it’s the first time we have seen anything like this, so what a good idea. Next was a small lift (photo 9) taking you up to your well lit pleasant corridor to find your disabled room (photo 10) and there is only the one available (photo 11). Our final thoughts A typical budget hotel, well cared for by a young friendly and helpful manageress, who kindly showed us around, with her small team of friendly staff, but it’s in a good spot for the airport, and if you only need a budget type hotel, then this would suit you.

On entry all staff welcoming. Accessible room good size and well designed for the wheelchair. Bathroom good ample towels and basic toiletries. Plug sockets are handy for chair charging. Room has double bed, but on enquiring about twins was told to phone and ask for Complimentary Carers Room next time.

This is a lovely hotel for space in a power wheelchair, lots of room to turn around in the toilet/shower room. The bedroom is a good size. The only down side for me is I need hoisting to get in and out of a bed so I had to sleep in my wheelchair. We do bring our own commode shower chair which has wheels so I can bare weight as long as I'm holding on then my wife moves the chair into place and I can sit down. With her help I can access the wash hand basin, shower and toilet all on the commode/shower chair.
