Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by BarFly Not so bad....
I have read the reviews to this location before I booked, and even though they weren't the best..they were old, so, I decided to make the visit anyway. I did make the wrong turn getting to the hotel but I did see it and a quick u-turn fixed that; Front desk were attentive- checking in/ out; I had dinner at the bar. Bartender was pleasant but I believe he was servicing the entire restaurant ..I mean, taking orders for food at the tables in addition to his station at the bar, so, it took awhile before he was able to give me a refill on my drink and get to me to close out my tab, but overall, he handled it well...restaurant was cozy, bar was small I wasn't a fan of the decor but it wasn't a make or break thing for me....I ate their pasta vodka..delicious. The Room- nice. Nothing stuck out except for the four SMALL pillows on a king size bed..??? that was the worst of it and nothing to get upset about...and when I travel, I am particular about what to expect at any hotel..this one, in my opinion did well.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by JoeyNick Good hotel slightly overpriced due to last moment reservations
The stay at this hotel was comfortable and relaxing. House keeping is regular, very effective & can be timed. It was recommended to me by my friends who had stayed there earlier. It is located 3-4 miles away from NJ Transit's Rahway station but the to and fro free shuttle whenever requested makes the distance irrelevant. Restaurant within the hotel has nice ambiance but has limited veggie choices. Due to prior recommendation it was an easy last moment choice but looks like the fare paid was slightly more than usual.

Spent New Year's Eve and had a good time. We enjoyed the Kenny Vance concert. The Holiday Inn was clean, comfortable and well run. No problems and I would stay again.

Rated 2.0 out of 5.0 by Cappy1 Conveniently located for my needs
When I checked in - I was given a smoking room - I told the girl that I reserved a non smoking room and I am a Platinum Memeber and requested a suite. She immediately said they only have 1 Suite and it was taken. (Strange but OK). After some time she finally found a non smoking room. I asked for a welcome bag (usually a bottle water/snack). Dont have any! I asked where is breakfast - well they have this cake dish - that she said they get donuts and coffee - but i should get up around 3-4am to make sure I get one, because all the workers that stay there eat all of them... REALLY!!! The room was very basic and needs upgrading!. When I took a shower the diverter leaked so bad the water hardly came out of the shower head - also the tub did not drain- so at the end of my shower - it was like a took a bath. I told the girl at the front desk in the morning and she took care of that immediately.

Rated 4.0 out of 5.0 by Mary27 Front desk service
Stay at this hotel at least once a year because of having family in the area and this is the first time that I was not acknowledged as a Priority Member. As a Platinum member I asked if there were any upgrades available and I got the impression that the room I was getting more suited my needs. Constant interruptions with the desk phone ringing and those customers needs being addressed before mine. I received no welcome bag and when I was checking out I asked if they did away with them and I was told no and would I like a cup of coffee of which I refused because one, I could get my own coffee and second, I was on my way out. I just chalked this experience up to out of the norm for this hotel and it would not affect my staying there again unless this would continue to happen.
