There wasn't anything particularly splendid or horrible about this hotel, so I'll just mention the things I liked, and the things that weren't as nice. Regarding the positives, the hotel is in an excellent location near the highways. The breakfast was terrific - healthy variety of items plus fresh pancakes and four hot items (usually eggs and meats). The breakfast... More

The hotel has a superb location near the Amtrak and coach buses! It's literally a two minute walk from the Amtrak and coach buses to the hotel. The hotel I would say has an average staff. There not very friendly but they are not terrible either. They supply you with free toothbrushes if you forgot to pack one. There is... More

I have chosen to stay here several times over the past 3 years and have not seen any upgrades or attempts to refresh the dated and tired interior. I hope the hotel receives some investment in the very near future or the standard will slip below the 'fresh, simple, clean' ethos behind the Holiday Inn Express brand. I recommend asking... More

On Oct. 28, 2011 my husband and I were attending a Justice of the Peace Conference being held at the Capitol Building, and I was thrilled to find a hotel within walking distance from my destination at such a reasonable rates both for the room-...

I have stayed at a number of Holiday Inn Express hotels over the past 2-3 years, and what always struck me was the value you received for the price. Large modern rooms with the amenities of a more expensive hotel. This Hartford property was disappointing in that regard. The bathroom was very small, with mold on the shower curtains, paint... More

I was lucky enough to get a last minute cancellation room at the Holiday Inn for the night before the Hartford Marathon. This hotel overlooks the park and is a mere few feet away from the start line...the closest hotel by far to the park. I have stomach problems, and having a close hotel is important to me after a...

This place looks a bit dated and shabby, and is very basic. But it is clean and the beds are comfortable, and it's in a good location for the train and bus station (right next door). So I would say go for it if you are just passing through Hartford and need a bed for the night that isn't too... More

The Holiday Inn Express is located in downtime Hartford, across the street from the train station. It is an older building, with only one working elevator (the other one was out of service for the week I was there) There is no free parking, but there is an adjoining private lot for $12 per day. Be prepared to have a... More
