Works for me!

Didn't want to drive back to Seattle late, so we spent the night in Bellingham. Holiday Inn was easy to find. My kids enjoyed the pool (although small) and the hot tub. We all enjoyed the breakfast (NOT the usual cold continental spread). Over all we would stay there again. The only issue I had was that on the 2nd floor, one wing was smoking and the smell did float to the non-smoking wing.

Visiting the girlfriend

I had originally had a non smoking room and when I got there they gave me a smoking room. I wasnt too happy but the room didnt smell too bad. The room were comfy and I would mos. def. stay there again. The staff was friendly. The breakfast was great. Pool was clean. Its a couple of blocks from the mall, costco, walmart, casino, etc.. Over all I rate it a 8.5

Clean place close to most locations

The staff was nice and hot breakfast was included. Eggs, pancake machine, coffee, muffins was a nice surprise. The decor was updated but the walls were not insulated and you could hear the pipes running at night. Acceptable but nothing special.

Good location but..

Staff was impersonal but not rude. Room temp was good. Linens were good. Large bathroom counter was enough for two women to use at once for hair and makeup with two separate outlets (not super bright lights though, I haven't been to one yet that is).Average beds firm, comfortable enough. Pillows were great. Ran out of cookies and hot (tea/cocoa) water in the evening. Breakfast was nice, several hot and cold items to choose from, although flavor was another story. Wish bathroom had a heat lamp light- but wasn't cold, took too long for mirror to defog without using a towel. Worst thing about this hotel is the parking, only a few well lit spaces, several were in complete darkness. Might make single women or Mom's nervous., Convenient location, but somewhat secluded parking lot at night. Pool is small. Got what we expected, except for the dark parking. Overall I'd give it a 3.75 out of 5.

Shopping tip: Short walk from hotel

Close to Mall, Ross, Marshalls soon to come, Borders, Pier One, dining. Could walk but we drove. Everything within a mile. If you want a bright parking spot you may want to park early. Shopping at discount stores on the weekend in Bellingham is a nightmare.

Holiday Inn Express Bellingham

Pleasant place to stay - staff is very friendly and courteous and very busy! Breakfast is very good! Disadvantage - going through Cheaptickets could not use my priority rewards card.
