Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by monny94 Comfortable and convenient
We stay here everytime we're in the Walnut Creek area to visit our son who's attending college in Oakland. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this hotel. No complaints here.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by RLewis Very clean, comfortable, great parking garage.
A very nice, modern hotel. Good location, close to the freeway. The only negative was that it's too close to the freeway (Hwy 680) that our room was quite noisy. But overall, our stay was great.

Rated 1.0 out of 5.0 by qwerty1234567890 Room service took the Express Lane Passed our Room!
We only went for one night, got in late, and left extremely early the next morning, but upon our arrival we found a partially eaten PB&J sandwich on the floor, and when I woke up the next morning I found a cigarette wrapper in another spot. Needless to say the cleaning was not up to par.
On the up side, the bed was very comfy.

It was about time someone have a Mac computer and a printer for use by guests. Although I did not time to use it this visit, it is good to know that one will be available next time I stay there. In this case , it was a new I-mac.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by NH2013 Great staff that helped me out!
My rental car had a dead battery one morning (January 23rd). I asked the front desk could help and the Manager on duty did so immediately by jumping starting my car with the Holiday Inn Express shuttle van. Very nice and helpful staff during my week long stay. Thank you!

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by Alllen Great service and clean, comfortable rooms
We have stayed here four or five times and are always impressed with the friendly service staff and the quality of the rooms. They are very clean and the beds quite comfortable. Also a very convenient location with plenty of safe parking. For a stay away from home, you can't ask for much more. To top it all off, the breakfast is varied and quite ample.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by SCotteen Outstanding!
Greeted by friendly and accommodating staff. Room and hotel, in general, were spotless. Computers in the business center worked well, and even included an Mac! This is a quiet hotel with a no-party rule. It is centrally-located with easy access to the East Bay Area and Oakland Bay Bridge.
There are also restaurants, stores, and Starbucks very close. In fact, Chick-fil-A is right next to the hotel in case you want a quick bite to eat.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by Vespagirl1 Good breakfast and great customer service
When I arrived, I was greeted by a very friendly front desk person. She acknowledged me as a priority customer and offered me some bottled water. I stayed 2 nights and was greeted whenever I left and when I returned. I was pleasantly surprised that the breakfast was so much better than I expected. They had a pancake machine (pictured). Eventhough I was in town for a funeral, all in all, it was a very pleasant stay.

Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by Travels NO HOT WATER & NO BREAKFAST
Try starting off your business day with a cold shower! This is the second time at this property with no hot water! And that same morning the person who's job it is to set-up the breakfast failed to come in. I waited a while and left with a cup of juice.
The next week they refused to honor my Corp. Rate when they has 80+ empty rooms Go figure. So I am staying just down the street with another chain. Nice room, hot water and a full kitchen for less $$. They lost my business.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by esscl5 Nice place to stay.
The room was comfortable and clean. I had read other reviews before reserving this stay that complained about updating/maintenance. Just a little maintenance needed for a patch of wallpaper peeling in the corner entry of our room. Great service from front desk to housekeeping to breakfast. The bathroom was small compared to other HI's we have stayed at which made it a little uncomfortable for 4 in a room but it was well equipped and nice. I would stay here again when in the area. Covered parking available and easy access to shopping, eating down the road just blocks from the hotel.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by lindalovesbooks Convenient hotel - helpful staff
We stay at this Holiday Inn Express when visiting family in Walnut Creek. It is close to the freeway, clean, has underground parking and serves a tasty breakfast.
The front desk staff (Donna?) was especially helpful the day we forgot to remove the Do Not Disturb sign and came in late to find the room just as we left it.
While it was completely our fault, she made sure we had dry towels and apologized for the inconvenience. I always appreciate people who step up to make things right and in her case she was gracious and kind.
The only reason I'm not rating the experience as Excellent is that we had problems with a lack of hot water. Other guests have reported the same issue but this is the first time we experienced it.

I stayed ten days at this Holiday Inn Express. I don't usually ask alot from the staff but I asked alot from this staff and they accommodated me every time. From the Management team to Security they made me feel like I stayed at a five star hotel. Thank you for letting me stay at your hotel.

Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by Munn Not what I expected
The room was on a bend in the facility. It was small and did not allow any outside air in the room. Thus the room was stuffy. We were across fromt he laundry room which did not add to our comfort. As a Priority Club member I thought I would have been treated better since I made reservations well in advance and stayed for five days. Not happy.

We stayed here one night as we were attending an event in the area. The front desk staff was wonderful and helpful as well as very welcoming. The room was very clean and comfortable. Lots of breakfast items to choose from. I really enjoyed staying here. Overall it's a great hotel and it's in a great location. I would definitely stay here again.

This would have been a great experience, except our room faced the freeway (about 100 yards away). The wall and window sound insulation was terrible. We could hear cars, trucks, buses and motorcycles all night long. If you stay here, be sure to get an inside room away from the freeway.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by mlw2327 a great deal
What you get at this Holiday Inn Express, for what you spend, is absolutely amazing. Large, comfortable room, excellent king bed, heat/ac thats simple and works, and a not fancy but good bkfst at no extra cost. Plus, a staff that many 4 and 5 star hotels would do well to emulate. I will mention, in particular, 'Jaire' who was behind the counter when we arrived, and was helpful, kind and just a pleasure to deal with.
I could never imagine staying anywhere else when in the area.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by culverclan great location with kids
The room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast worked for us. The best part, however is that the hotel is located right on a walking/bike path which leads to Larkey Park, where there are two separate children's play areas with climbing equipment and there is also the Larkey Park Wildlife Museum. It was an easy walk in the morning. Much better than being stuck in a hotel room. You do have to go down what looks like a ditch to get on the path, but once on the path the way is clear. Be careful you don't end up at Mt. Diablo, since the trial system goes all the way there...

The Holiday Inn Express, North Main, Walnut Creek, CA is like our home away from home. We've been staying there often for several years and enjoy receiving an occasional free night using our Priority Club Member Rewards Points.
The facilities are clean and attractive, the breakfast buffet, bountiful. The rooms are attractively decorated, spacious, comfortable and clean. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and welcoming. The prices are competitive. The location is very near the Pleasant Hill BART Station, making it very easy to go to San Francisco or Berkeley or anywhere that BART goes.
We highly recommend this hotel.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by LK1912 Breakfast program
Our breakfast experience was less than great! Many of the food items were COLD and there was no microwave oven which could be used to heat the items. When I brought to the attention of one of the people working in the area that they were out of coffee, he seemed to ignore me and did not do anything to fix the problem for several minutes and during this time, the line for coffee became very long. I would suggest some training as to the priority of things to get their attention be give to all the staff members who are responsible for the breakfast service. To me they seemed to be focused on items that were not of a high priority rather than taking care of issues that were more critical for the success of the breakfast serving. For example, there was lots of butter etc out and yet one person seemed to be focused on getting more of these items out rather than making sure the food was hot and the coffee was available. I would also recommend that the staff look closely at how they stack food in trays that need to be kept hot. Do not stack them several layers thick as the ones on the lower levels get COLD!
Sincerely,
L&K

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Clamper1 Good location
I have stayed at the Holiday Inn Express on many business trips. This was the MOST expensive stay. The staff is always very good and accomodating, but when I tried to get change for a $20 from a night clerk he simply said, "I don't have any".
The room was comfortable except for the mattress. It needs to be recycled because it sagged terribly. Sleeping diagonally helped some but rolling over was a chore.
I was recognized as a Priority Club Member and told that water would be in the room. I never receive one bottle during my entire stay.

Excllent staff and services, special Mr. Jairo at the front desk, is our third time at HI Express in Wlanut Creek.
The only thing to improve is the noisy air conditioning at the rooms.

Rated 5.0 out of 5.0 by Duckfan Great value and friendly staff
We always stay here when visiting East Bay Area. Room is clean, bed comfortable, staff is friendly, breakfast buffet is a complete meal. They even called our room after checking in to make sure everything was satisfactory. And they carry our favorite cable channel. Added plus: easy walking distance to Walgreen's, brand-new Chick-fil-A, other stores. The few parking spaces in front are good, but fill up quickly, the remainder are accessed by underground driveway and are a bit tight for big vehicles.

Rated 3.0 out of 5.0 by tomasprimero Unfulfilled courtyard room reservation and bad parking
We are Priority Club members and had reserved a courtyard room. knowing we were checking in late we called ahead to confirm the reservation. We ended up with some funky corner room that faced the parking lot and noisy street. The parking is terrible, full of compact spots, and seemingly too small for the number of rooms.
