Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Slidell by IHG

Clean area outside and inside

Staff here was great, helpful. Rooms need updating, hotel is showing it’s age

Needs updated. Room had smell so did blankets. Tub looked dirty

It smelled so badly of weed that I got a contact high. The place was not well lit off the road and in a bad looking run down area. The front doors were open, people congregated by the doors smoking and letting that smell also come in the doors. It was not a very savory place to be, the restaurant was closed by the time I got there. Front desk guy was very nice everything else was very displeasing.

Assumed all Holiday Inn hotels had standards, that it couldn't have been bad even though it's in an ugly spot along the freeway. Well, our room had a very strong musty smell, so strong that I carried the smell in my hair/clothes after leaving the room. Fortunately I had a travel candle and some natural lavender mist with me so that helped. Then, on our first morning there, at 8:15am someone came barging into our room EVEN THOUGH we had the do not disturb sign hanging on the door. My husband and I were still in our sleep attire but could've easily been stepping out of the shower or undressed so this was unsettling. Plus they immediately slipped out the nearby side exit door (we were on ground floor) so at first we thought they were outsiders attempting to burglarize our room. Wasn't until my husband reported to front desk, security footage was viewed and he was told they were employees. The women said they thought we had checked out, even thought we were booked for the following night as well. We felt really uncomfortable here after that incident. Took our valuables with us during the day while out because we didn't feel secure. Front desk employee Charmaine was very nice, spoke with the manager (who we never met) but they didn't offer us any sort of compensation whatsoever because we'd booked 3rd party, with Expedia. The place looks old and stale.

Breakfast was great. The food was fresh, taste and the food area was very clean. The cooks name is daliyah and she did amazing ! Highly recommended.

Great service and pretty good breakfast. Clean and comfortable rooms . If you there on a Sunday, you may be able to catch Sunday Service.
