Holiday Inn Wolverhampton - Racecourse by IHG

The always welcoming and friendly staff and the convenience when going racing.

It's a little overpriced.

Everything

Everything was extraordinary

Having never attended Wolverhampton Racecourse before, I choose this hotel purely for it's location and wasn't disappointed, there is a massive free car park.The bar/restaurant has direct access to the course and overlooks the Parade Ring.If you are staying at the hotel you receive discounted race tickets and 20%of drinks in their bar. I arrived early so my room wasn't ready, not a problem, the excellent helpful lad on reception got check-in sorted and brought my room key over once the room ready,whilst I waited in the bar. Standard Holiday Inn room was clean and tidy with all the usual amenities, some of the furniture was a little tired, comfortable bed and plenty of hot water in the shower,meant a pleasureable stay was had.My room once again overlooked the Parade Ring and once the racecourse gates open,I made my way in via the hotel bar area. I had to pop back to my room during the evening, no issue. Following my good night's sleep, I headed down for breakfast, a warm welcome from Rose and her colleague, as with all the other staff I encountered, who looked after me during my breakfast,this despite there being a large number of people arriving for a conference in the course plus a couple groups of Liverpool fans who had stayed for the match the previous night at Molineux(a mile away). A good selection of hot and cold choices ensured I was fueled for the day. While this hotel is not the most picturesque but the staff are exemplary and that's sets it apart from other places I've stayed, already planning another visit.

Disappointment kept awake by TV in room above and then snoring.

Price of room no breakfast

It was right on Wolverhampton Racecourse.

The bathroom was a little tatty.
