Holiday Inn Express Beloit

I stayed at another hotel last time I was in Beloit and didn’t love it so I thought I would try another. There are not many great options but this seemed like a step up. So, I booked it at a special rate for Beloit college families.
I was very pleased. The staff was very helpful and accomodating. I asked for a quitet room. They put me on the second floor way down the hall. It was perfect. Very quiet. Also very convenient to the side door entrance right off the parking lot.
Didn’t eat the food as we were busy and it didn’t seem too amazing, basic breakast food. There are lots of places to eat within walking distance.
The room was clean and most importantly the sheets felt very clean and cozy.
It’s a basic room at an affordable price. It is a bit dated but clean.
Wi Fi was spotty as usual in most hotels like this. It worked most of the time though.
I will definitely stay here again when I come to Beloit to visit my son.

It’s very clean and comfortable and the breakfast was nice. The property is older, but it’s completely fine for a business trip. I wouldn’t recommend it for a «romantic getaway», but then why would you go to Beloit for a romantic getaway. Staff was very friendly and professional.

I stayed at this Holiday Inn for a weekend. Overall this was a nice hotel and I would stay there again if in the area.
Pros: Comfortable beds (with 4 pillows/​bed), clean, free wi-​fi, nice toiletries, free breakfast (which was pretty solid), pool and hot tub (which are open until 1am), fitness center (very small), friendly and accommodating staff, convenient location next to freeway and Starbucks, and fast food, free parking (big lot)
Cons: Fitness center could be a bit bigger (no free weights) and old machines. My tub/​shower was kinda old…
Obviously this is not a super high end hotel (and that’s okay). This place is pretty close to perfect for what it is supposed to be. I would probably give it more like 4.5÷5 stars.

I had to find a room in Beloit short notice last week and all of the other hotels I called were booked due to a soccer tournament in Rockford (weird). So my last resort was the Holiday Inn Express… great. BUT. I was very pleasantly surprised at how nice it was and the amenities offered! It appears to have recently been redecorated, so it looked pretty nice in the lobby and in the room.
Upon checking in, we were given two vouchers for two drinks each– beer, wine, liquor or pop– from 5−7pm that night along with a snack bar. Score! Unfortunately we had to be out during those times so we couldn’t take advantage of the free drinks– boo! Breakfast the next morning was pretty typical, but it seemed to be a step above most of the continental breakfasts I’ve been to.
The only thing knocking this hotel down a star was the slightly odd smell our room had… possibly from it being a smoking hotel at one point? Over all, very pleasantly surprised!

What this place lacks in updates it more than makes up for with incidentals. I have stayed here several times and the staff is always pleasant and courteous. The rooms are small and dated but, and this is big, they have a free happy hour evenings during the week. No bar, no problem– the front desk doubles as the bar, classic! Snacks are also served. It’s a H-​I Express so breakfast is served every morning for free and it’s quite good. You won’t confuse this place with the Ritz but you will be happy.

Older facilty that has been updated. If you have the option, stay at the Holiday Inn Express in nearby Loves Park IL or janesville WI which are new facilities.

I’ve stayed in gorgeous hotels, and while this isn’t a 5 star hotel, I have nothing to complain about. From the 1^st person I spoke to on the phone, to the last person checking out, they were all so incredibly nice and helpful! Rooms were clean, coffee, microwave, and fridge privided, and beds and pillows comfy! The breakfast was great with lots of hot and cold choices, and I was unaware of the happy hour from 5−−7 with snacks and 2 free drinks per person! That was a nice surprise. If I’m ever in Beloit again, this is where I’m staying.

I was prepared to be underwhelmed by this hotel and, to the contrary, I had a really pleasant stay.
We arrived at about 3am on a Saturday morning after an unpleasant incident drove us out of our Chicago hotel early. Rather than charge us two nights (we had reservations for the next night), they merely counted it as an early check in. Score.
The staff were competent, the rooms were clean, and we slept like rocks. The rooms are a tad dated and small, but at least the walls were thick enough to where we couldn’t hear our neighbor’s conversations. The breakfast wasn’t anything to write home about, but it was edible. I was perfectly satisfied.

Stayed here while visiting Beloit for a job interview. The employees I met were very nice, especially since I arrived after happy hour the front desk agent gave me two beers of my choice– granted the choices were Miller Lite and MGD.
The room was very clean and upkept.
I arrived at the breakfast buffet at 9am and they were out of everything hot expect for make your own pancakes.
It’s also a nice perk to get a USA Today at the door step.

I’m a fan of Holiday Inns, generally speaking. This one was a bit below expectations. It was difficult to find a parking space. Also, I’m pretty sure that the clerk who checked me and my girlfriend in started smirking creepily when he realized we’re queer.
The biggest issue, though, was the curtains in the room. We were on the ground floor and the blackout curtains did not shut AT ALL. They were not long enough to move, period. We had zero privacy, had to get changed in the bathroom. I’ve never stayed in a hotel room where that was an issue. Really weird.

Great hotel! Way better than the neighboring Comfort Inn. And the Holiday Inn Express offers free manager’s reception and 2 alcoholic or non alcoholic drinks. Great breakfeast too, make your own pancakes and also hot food items: scrambled eggs and biscuits and gravy. Lobby, food area and pool/​workout room is very modern. Rooms are very nice as well but the TVs could use some updating. And you cant beat fridge and microwave in all rooms! The people staying at the hotel and the people working there were all very nice and polite and helpful. Reasonably priced as well.

Clean comfortable rooms but in need of updates still the old TVs and paint touch ups and a bit high priced $ 100 for a room is just too much for a standard room like this was and that was with a discount?
