All of the employees nice and professional. The breakfast crew were extremely friendly and took care of all of our needs. This hotel is on the far end of Broad St, but never felt unsafe and was convenient to walk for events, dining, and shopping.

I recently spent six nights at the Holiday Inn Express Augusta Downtown and would like to share both my positive experiences and one concern during my stay. First and foremost, I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to Asha Kelly, who was the first person I encountered upon arrival. She went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and supported during a time when I needed some extra assistance. Her kindness, professionalism, and genuine care made a lasting impression on me, and I will never forget her exceptional service. I also want to commend the transportation staff member (whose name I unfortunately didn’t catch) who was always friendly, helpful, and very knowledgeable. His attitude made getting around easier and more enjoyable. My only issue during the stay involved a housekeeping interaction between June 5th and 6th. I had requested a replacement for a malfunctioning shower soap dispenser. The replacement was eventually delivered, but rather than being installed with the other two existing dispensers, it was simply placed on the shower shelf. I tried to communicate (by handing the bottle to the staff member) that I would like it mounted properly like the others, but unfortunately, that request didn’t seem to be understood or acted upon. The staff member chose not to speak to me at all and only motioned what her intentions were. In fact, she placed the bottle right back where she had put it originally and walked out of the room without further communication. Chuckie Ar

Fine hotel, clean and good shower. Super thin walls though…had constant noise going on throughout the hotel through the night and didn’t get any sleep. Also awoke to what sounded like someone KICKING A BARREL DRUM OR WATER HEATER DOWN THE HALLWAY. It was so loud that’s the only way I could describe it, which in theory wouldn’t make sense. I’ve never been so startled in my life at a hotel…AND THEN TO HAVE IT HAPPEN TWICE?! Also, the air conditioning unit in the room was incredibly loud if you turned the room down past 73…IN JUNE. I awoke in a nice pool of sweat to the thunderous booms and was about ready to just call it a night and drive two hours back to Atlanta. The staff overall was very nice however and I enjoyed my stay in the city. The hotel…well, another story.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The facility is nice and clean, the staffs are helpful. However, Augusta downtown feels quite deserted in a normal day, even though it’s where all these recommended tourist attractions are, like Riverwalk and the Morris Museum of Art, etc. The biggest complaints I have is the breakfast — the milk they put out (in the refrigerator) had past expiration by one day. The one I opened had visible signs of turning bad. I threw it away, and just had some bacon, sausage and scrambled eggs, and I still ended up having stomach problems and had a couple of runs for the restroom an hour later.

Mediocre Hotel

Weirdness when I checked in. Even though I booked through Hotels.com I still had to give them my credit card. Seemed like they didn't have me in the system. Also, breakfast was supposed to start at 7:00am and it still wasn't ready when I came down at 7:30am..

Augusta is a great town, this is a great hotel

We went to Augusta because of the James Brown connection. Unsure what to expect. The town is definitely on the up. A little rough around the edges, but safe and walkable in downtown, even at night. Hotel is within walking distance of the museum, riverwalk, bars and restaurants. The property is clean, comfortable and well appointed. Would stay again.
