Terrible Hotel and Personnel

This facility would not allow a reservation cancellation more than 10 days prior to the reservation date. There is also a ridiculous $30 charge for a pet although that information can not be found on their booking website. The personnel are rude and don't really care whether or not you even stay there.

Holiday Inn Chico

I was in Chico for a funeral with my newborn son overnight. Pros: The Holiday Inn was clean & they accommodated my request for a crib with no Issues. It was also quiet. They put us at the back of the hotel, which seemed odd at first, but it was nice to be off the main road. Cons: When I got to the room, it was pretty small- a very tight fit! And I'm a small woman. Also, the furniture was outdated. The leather on the desk chair was peeling off! I'm not super picky about those things, but for the price I expected better. Overall it was a good experience but I would recommend staying at a cheaper hotel...I just didn't think it was worth the extra expense.

Average Room

The hotel was convenient to find but the room was small and was next to the ice machine/coke machine which made it hard to sleep. Very little counter room in bathroom was a problem for 2 people. The hotel was clean and well maintained. The staff was cordial.

Graduation

The cost went from $129 to $309 from Thursday to Friday, because of graduation. Almost $500 after taxes for two nights! Ridiculous!!! House keeping came knocking on the door at 9:00 am the day of check out. Not too happy with the whole experience.

Not noisy, not filthy

I'm from Chico, was home visiting my family. Felt like the Holiday Inn was an "ok for $100 bucks a night" kind of place, but definitely wouldn't go out of my way to stay there again. They have a forced air heater, so the air gets really dry at night. The king sized bed was comfortable. I would say it's been at least 15 years since the room was renovated, so it had that shabby, impossible to clean kind of feel to it. But if I were going up to stay with family again and this was the only place in this price range, I'd do it again.

Good place for an overnight stay

We were tired from a 3.hour drive and were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. The staff was very helpful and courteous - gave a nice recommendation for dinner. Really appreciated having an elevator. The room was very clean- loved the rainshower showerhead in the shower. The free breakfast was fine - I am not sure what others expect- but, speaking from experience, we have had much worse. Choice of egg, bacon or sausage,potatoes and toast - along with a beverage. The only downside was that the walls are "paper thin" - and our next door neighbors awoke before 6am and had lengthy conversations that kept me from getting a restful sleep - would have appreciated an extra hour. Will definitely stay here again if I am in the area.

Average stay...not overwhelmed

The facilities were good, room comfort was good..Had been in two other hotels during this trip, and was disappointed to see that flat screen tv's had not been utilized in this hotel. We only ate breakfast once during our four day stay, because the one time we had it, it was awful! The buffet is no longer offered; however, you are given your choice of eggs, bread, and meat.. The one breakfast we had was simply not well prepared at all. The convenience of the hotel to Highway 99 is excellent. I recommend this hotel, but stay away from the breakfast!

Cafe Coda has a breakfast to die for!! They offer champagne brunch on Sat & Sun; however, their menu does not change during the week. The lemon poppyseed pancakes are scrumptious, as is their Coda Benedict.. Be sure to give it a try!

Holiday Inn, Chico

Fabulous Pool. The Pool was the highlight of our stay in the Hotel and made the Hotel great for us with the heat in Chico. The Air Conditioning was more than adequate. The view out the window was marred by spider webs on the outside of the windows. The location was perfect for our visit to Lassen NP. We mistakenly thought the room came with Breakfast. After surveying the Breakfast, we are glad it didn't and had Breakfast down the street. Overall, we enjoyed our visit to Chico and found our stay at the Hotel comfortable. Both the Pool and the comfort of the Bed made our stay refreshing. (I asked for a quiet room and got it.)
