- Alan Clair (1/5): - Staff were all excellent and done everything we asked them, especially the girls on reception who got us an early check-in, as the funeral we were attending was early. Room was small for a Holiday Inn the shower wouldn't drain, flooded room, no hair dryer in toilet , tea and coffee making facilities in room were poor, there was no fresh air in the room also it was very warm and the hotel was short staffed. I've stayed in holiday Inn express and double tree by Hilton, Hilton is by far the better.

Date of stay: 8ā9 February 2026
Room: 418
As a loyal IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group) guest for over 20 yearsātypically 70ā100 nights per year historically (now around 30ā40 post-Covid)āI feel I know the brand well. This visit to Holiday Inn Express Grimsby was fully in line with the standards Iāve come to expect.
Arrival & Check-In
⢠The hotel was easy to find using sat nav and postcode, making for a smooth, stress-free journey.
⢠Parking is straightforward, with a large car park directly to the rear of the hotel.
⢠Check-in was quick and welcoming, and the reception team made an excellent first impression.
⢠As a Priority Club member, I was warmly acknowledged and offered the choice of bonus points or a complimentary drink ā a small touch, but very much appreciated.
Rooms & Cleanliness
⢠The room was spotlessly clean, well presented, and in good condition ā fully in line with IHG standards.
⢠Fixtures, fittings and linens were fresh and well maintained. (See attached photos.)
Dining Experience
⢠Evening meal: The on-site menu was a little smaller than Iām used to at some Holiday Inn Express hotels, so I popped to St. James Fish Restaurant (about 100m from the front door) ā genuinely excellent. The open-plan bar/dining area at the hotel had a relaxed atmosphere and the staff kindly said it was fine for me to eat my takeaway there.
⢠Breakfast: A good balance of continental options and a cooked breakfast, all included in the room rate, which is always a plus.
Parking
⢠Is a little pricey at £9.00 and should be included as part of the rack rate .
Check-Out
⢠Check-out was smooth and efficient, with professional, courteous staff ensuring everything was completed quickly.
Overall Impression
A comfortable, clean and well-run hotel that delivered the reliable IHG experience Iāve come to expect. A solid stay ā and Iād happily return.
