“centrally located well kept hotel for solo and family travelers”

Have stayed in this hotel quite a few times - alone or with company - and never had a bad stay. Clean spacious room - nice to come back to, accomodating staff, newer structure ( not even 5 years old yet), and ever trying to improve and attract customers with additions of happy hour, music on some evenings, bar food. This is NOT the place for night life nor is it very close (or too close) to restaurants, malls, beach. However, it has easy driving and access to key areas in Orange county due to proximity to El Toro and other Roads, and 405 / 5 -. 15-20 min to Laguna, and a bit more to Newport Beach and points in between. The only thing I miss - the Holiday Inn Express type breakfasts - that would help.

“I am impressed.”

Good neighborhood, calm location. It would be nice if the hotel included breakfast as it's standard rate. By the way, I like the bed with soft or firm pillows to choose. Thumb up.

“Far more than a 3 star hotel!”

After staying at this Holiday Inn, I'm surprised it's only rated at 3 stars! The room was very comfortable; I felt no difference between this particular Holiday Inn and a Marriott (regular kind, not the Courtyard)! The bathroom was remodeled, and the provided toiletries were very nice. The bedding and bed itself felt luxurious, as did the pillows. The hotel staff was incredibly warm, welcoming and professional. When there was a mix-up with the taxi I ordered, the front desk immediately called their hotel shuttle to take me where I needed to go. They also recognized me when I came downstairs to check out. I would rate this hotel at 4 stars, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a 4 star hotel at a 3 star price!

Area recommendations
I'd recommend this for business in the Irvine area. It was very close the the business park I needed to be by and saved me commuting time in the morning.

“Would stay again.”

I would stay at this hotel again. The room had a microwave, mini-fridge, and there was room service.

“Weary travelers welcome”

The overall appearance of the hotel and the surrounding grounds is quite clean and well maintained throughout. The parking is easy and convienent as well. The pool is well maintained and heated so it is always at a comfortable temperature no matter what time of the day except it is better before 6 pm due to the fact that the sun is hidden by the hotel. For evening dippers though it is not a problem as i said before the pool is heated. The free wirless internet works great as well. I found the overall satisfaction to be as good as it gets.

Area recommendations
Just about everything you could ask for is close at hand. A wide selction of specialty stores and shopping centers are located on Lake forest drive and more so on El Toro road. We found that just about everything you would want to fill up a weeks stay in the Irvine area could be done in this area.
Getting around
You can avoid the confusion of the freeways pretty easy by not trying to travel on them. Roads crisscross main artery's such as Lake Forest and El toro making it easy to get around and avoid the I-5 and 405 where traffic jams and high speed drivers dominate the road. I would take note of the roads that cross over or under the freeways so as to avoid being pressed into getting on one by being in the wrong lane. The worst thing about the interstates is that if you miss an off ramp you may have to go out of your way to get back.

“Impressed”

The staff was very helpful. The room was well kept and maintained, as was the hotel in general. Breakfast was good. The only downside was the bed, which was a little uncomfortable. Otherwise, we were very happy with our stay. Definitely worth the price in that area.
