Ann-Marie Edelmann

Absolutely fantastic! We had booked another room near the Bay Center and to say the least it was a horrible mistake I called the Holiday Inn Express quite upset and the representative at the front desk, Ariel (she’s fantastic) got us booked in minutesWhen we arrived the property was beyond expectations

Clean, great staff and all the amenities The room is spacious, clean and the beds/ bedding are above par Breakfast is wonderful and my picky eaters loved it We will definitely be back and sing this properties praises Keep up the great work! You are appreciated

Jordan Fejeran

This was the best hotel stay I think we have ever had! The staff were so helpful, everyone from front desk, the wonderful lady in charge of the breakfast bar, housekeeping and everyone in between always greeted us with a friendly smile The breakfast bar rotated so you had new options rather than the same exact thing every day (which was really nice since we stayed almost a week)Pretty standard in terms of the colorful furniture you’d see in photos (if that matters to you) but the check in area has some cool backlights mixed into the wall designs

Everything was kept clean and orderly We stayed during spring break and even though I’m sure the hotel was packed it never sounded or felt that way

Nawatsie Tyars

Our stay at this location was very enjoyable and restful Our room was a king suite that was very comfortable and affordable The room was very clean & the staff was very professional, respectful and efficient in getting us checked in and ensuring that we felt comfortable with our choices

Breakfast buffet was delicious with plenty of bacons, sausage patties, biscuits and omelettes Assorted pastries & bagels were available with fruit & juices Fresh delicious coffee was made available throughout the day I highly recommend this hotel which is less than 4 miles from the Flounders Chowder House restaurant and a walk on the beach

Brian (BriGuy71)

The hotel location was great The check in was great I was there for 7 nights

My issues started with the AC For some reason the unit would not turn on unless I put it extremely low I was either very cold or very hot When I asked the front desk they simply came into the room and moved the thermostat down until it turned on Not really the solutionThe second issue is they informed me a couple days into my stay that the water was going to be turned off for a few hours to test the water sprinkler system My issue was it was off all day and I was working from the hotel room You don’t realize how much you need running water when you’re in the same space all day When I asked at 5:30 pm when it would be turned on the front desk said they weren’t sureMy third issue is a common one now I was told no room service for 7 days and let them know if I needed anything If you know someone is staying 7 nights and you’re not going to service the room why not put a few extra soaps I ran out on day 3 and had to go to the front desk for soap Hopefully once everything starts working again we can have daily room serviceThanks for the time and hope this review was helpful Only a few tweaks needing to be done to make this a 5 star stay I just wonder; do they really want to make this a 5 star stay? Hum…

C Jordan (Kitty)

The stay was good, but not quite what I was expecting I chose this hotel for a brief stay because it states it has a restaurant and a bar That’s not accurate

They have a Starbucks counter which includes options for eggs or french toast which they make on premises; but it’s only open in the mornings There isn’t actually a restaurant They have a few bottles of beer lined up on the Starbucks shelf, but unless you’re looking for a mid-morning beer, there isn’t a “bar” There isn’t even an afternoon coffee option, since the Starbucks closes after breakfastThe hotel was reasonably clean, staff were friendly Area seemed safeThey don’t tidy the room and make the beds during the stay, which may be a covid holdover

Michelle Dittrich

We had not planned on staying in Pensacola but got stuck in a dead stop on i10 for nearly 3 hours due to an accident on the freeway! Jake at the front desk was extremely helpful and kind! He also gave an excellent recommendation for dinner at Bubbas33 and a 10% coupon! Hotel was very clean and the room was wonderful! Got a great night’s sleep!

This was our first time staying at this hotel, I was a bit leery This place was clean smelled really good when you first walk in The room was super clean even the carpet felt like it was just cleaned

I was very impressed I would definitely stay again This hotel is excellent if you have to stay for several days The gym and the pool looked very nice I didn’t use them but I did check them out The continental breakfast was stocked and had bagels waffles coffee juice eggs are a few other things Also Cracker Barrel is with in walking distance

Gerard

I did thoroughly enjoy my stay at this hotel It is conveniently located to I-10 and I-110 I am extremely finicky about hotel deodorizers and odors

This one had no issues The hotel and hallways smell perfectly clean and fresh That is very important to me The staff working there are friendly, polite and courteous I was extremely comfortable in the room I rented I do recommend this hotel

Carrie Cox

I stayed here recently due to a family emergency I was beyond impressed I have never stayed at this brand before so was not sure what to expect

The staff was beyond friendly They welcomed us with a bag of waters and popcorn to take to the room They get out and interact and get to know their guestsThe rooms are spacious and CLEAN!! I have OCD so this is a hard “thumbs up” in my book and they got it! The beds are extremely comfortable The room had plenty of luggage, clothes, and traveling items The kitchenette has all the necessities accounted forThe hot breakfast was tasty Had a good variety, for even the fussy eatersThe hotel is also convenient to the interstatesI do not write many google reviews, so hope this helps some of you out there!

Haven’t gone through my whole stay yet, but I’ve already had a great experience First time hotel hunting at 1AM and finally just decided to stop and ask if there was any availability There was, luckily, and the lovely woman at the front desk was so helpful and kind

She did everything she could to find me the BEST last minute price and didn’t even mind my jitters about getting a hotel room for the first time on my own The room is spotless and spacious, and the bathroom is honestly impressive Checked for bugs everywhere and found none I feel safe on the property, and the doors even have a stopper+lock combo that’s really nice 10/10 overall

Micah Little

I have stayed here for 4 days so far and it’s my second time staying here This time it’s different people and I want to recognize thoughtful service provided by some of the staff The bar was a highlight and the woman behind it was awesome – Trici really kept us smiling

It was really enjoyable and made for good times The chef today/Saturday was impressive and Tammy was really helpful went out of her way to assist The low point of the stay was the very rude short lady in the bistro Wednesday night, she has no business working for you all Otherwise the rooms are very nice & clean & comfortable Thomas in the front desk was very personable and helped me with laundry I will be back Thank you for the hospitality

Mister Review

This was a fantastic stay! Very new hotel with a great lobby and restaurant service The front desk was prompt and inviting They went over all of the items I would need to know and sent me quickly off to my room

The room was clean, spacious, and setup for my arrival Great workspace, large TV and quiet when needed I will definitely look to stay here again Thanks Marriott!

If I could give them no stars I would I am a Hilton Honors member, but I will never use them againI was traveling cross-country from CA to FL driving a Penske truck with a car trailer in the back

When I got to Pensacola I just could not drive anymore I had been staying at Hampton Inns throughout my trip without an issue They had reasonable prices and they were close to the freewayWell, that was not the case with this location On their website the price was $117 We were paying similar rates across the country But, they charged me $338 for one night I ask the lady at the desk why the price was so high She said she didn’t know It was ridiculous and her manager thought it was ridiculous, but that is what I paid, thinking that I could call corporate and they could fix this because I just could not safely ride any furtherI got back to CA and had to call corporate 3 times The first two times they said they would contact me within 48 hours They did not When I called the third time they told me that corporate communicated with the hotel, but did not call me The Pensacola I-10 hotel because it was not at the beach told them that’s how much they charged and did not communicate with me at all The customer service person told me that during the season between February and September they charged higher That’s not true because none of the Hampton hotels across the country charged me such an amountThe Hampton hotels are not worth $338 plus taxThe corporate and that particular hotel’s customer service was appallingI will never stay at a Hampton Inn again

Ed Culbreath

This hotel is conveniently located on I-10 and easy to access I visit my daughter and grandchildren in Pensacola and am a long time Diamond member This property was built in 2014 so in relatively good shape

The bed in the room I slept in was not particularly comfortable making getting a good rest difficult Staff is relatively friendly though not overt in welcoming guestsThe reason I am giving a below par review is this: I always check in online and have for years It allows me to secure a room easily and choose my room When I get to the property the room is paid for, I get my key and head up to the room At this property I went to the front desk to recieve my key as usual but the desk clerk wanted me to run my credit card My question was why? She told me this property requires an additional fee for “incidentals and damage fees” to the tune of $400 dollars This was a first for me and I have stayed at Hilton propertiesa lot of properties I asked the clerk if this is the way this property treats Diamond members? She told me they treat everyone that way Well, I have spent a lot of money at a lot of Hilton properties and have always been treated with a modicum of respect for my loyalty But, if this is the way this property treats its loyal and long time members, so be itThere are plenty of Hilton properties in Pensacola where I can expect the appreciation of being a loyal customer This property is not one of them

Brittany Bongiovanni

Cancel your reservations if arriving late at night To the rude staff member who greeted me when arriving at 2230… take a moment and reflect on your attitude But honestly, I’m not even surprised at how you talked to me

FYI: Military members frequently travel through Pensacola and sometimes we also have worked long hours and just want to make it to our next destination I didn’t even step foot in the lobby and can already say I will not make reservations at this Hampton Inn when traveling through Pensacola I’ll take my Platinum points and compliments for a kind staff elsewhere

I enjoyed my stay The hotel was easily accessible & easy to find My first impression of the lobby was that it was spacious, clean, and modern

The front desk associate was supper nice & helped me navigate to the beach! Our room was beautiful Loved the spacious bathroom, & large bed Plus the little welcome touch on the tv was nice! The only downside would be not having liners for the trashcan but that’s no biggie!

Bryan Pascua

For a Marriott brand hotel, I was overall disappointed Hotel is tired, needs some updating Stayed in Room 309, stains on the wall next to the front door, stained sofa, tub caulking job was terrible, loose toilet seat, and a less than productive flush

Stayed 2 nights, room was not serviced and complimentary coffee kits not refilled Did bring the toilet issue to the attention of the front desk, seat was tightened, but flushing wasn’t improved Bed was comfortable I’ve stayed at better 2 star hotels Rethinking my brand commitment after my last 2 Marriott stays

dani

Very good hotel! The rooms looked just like the pictures! Me and my family were happy for finally we have a good hotel! We were on the 4th floor, and I liked the view from the window I like how the room is BIG and has space There is a desk, even a COUCH! Wow! And in the bathroom, it was very clean and pretty

In the shower, it even had liquid soap and other stuff for you to wash with I definitely recommend this place if you are going with family I wish I could come back again here!! 😁

After traveling more than 10 hours, my husband and I were greeted with a friendly smile and a welcome attitude by Robert at the front desk He looked up our reservation quickly and got our room keys straight awayWhen we got to the room, we couldn’t get the AC to work

Not a problem! Robert and my husband went right back to the room and took care of it He was very kind and made sure he offered us the points or the amenities because we were IHG members I’m sure we would have been treated exactly the same way had we just walked in and not been members of any group Professionalism at it’s best Robert is an asset to the Holiday Inn Express and Suites family

amanda Eaton

The manager on staff working Friday was extremely understanding with our service dogs We had slept in our car the night before because another hotel was extremely gross and it was hard finding a place pet friendly that wasnt gross So we slept in our car the night before and had most of our money tied up in refunds for two hotels we had to get refunds from

I was running on 3 hrs of sleep and was in tears when I saw no pets but relieved when I told him they were service animals We usually stay in pet friendly hotels because it’s just easier He was very kind and our room was very clean The lady cooking breakfast on Saturday was the sweetest, she made sure I went back to our room with these apple cake things No complaints at all

Lianna Flemming

Very clean and nicely updated I thoroughly checked the room for bugs or dirt with a flashlight and couldn’t find anything that was dirty or not cleaned spotless It felt so good not to worry about cleanliness there

We had to leave our prior hotel because we found lots of roaches We will 100% stay at this hotel if we come to Florida again

We did not come to this area to stay on vacation, only for doctor’s appointment but we were very impressed The hotel is very clean and very orderly You can smell cleanliness when you walk through the doors of both the lobby and your room

The front lobby staff was very kind and accommodating, they told us everything there was to know about our stay at their hotel All of the linens and appliances were spotless, no doubt that these rooms were cleaned well

boy was that a huge mistake! Thankfully, we were able to get a refund and we came here This hotel is wonderful! Super clean room, they SMELL and look clean Comfy beds and pillows And, most importantly, I don’t feel like gonna be murdered here! Thank you, Holiday Inn (and Keith at the front desk) for making our night 10,000 times better!

What a wonderful place! Very clean with great amenities and a super hard-working, friendly staff! Pool is awesome and you’re just a short walk to white sand beaches

and a private gulf view balcony for every room Just spectacular! The entire hotel is non-smoking, which is a huge plus Close enough to restaurants yet far enough away to feel very private We’ll definitely be back Thanks to everyone!

Cassandra P.

Had a great stay! Stayed here for only a couple of nights with a friend and we were really impressed Everyone we interacted with was very friendly and helpful The views from the room were amazing and we really enjoyed sitting on the balcony and listening to the waves

The beach is right in your backyard and it is easily accessible They even have a faucet/water sprayer to rinse the sand off your feet before going back into the hotel Breakfast was average to great, and had good options The room was clean and we had plenty of space for all our stuff The beds were very comfortable I would definitely stay here again!

Nathan Wallace

Our stay at this location was fantastic We arrived to a friendly front staff, especially Owen, and our room ready The free breakfast was really good and exceeded my expectations

Our room was clean and nice and all rooms have a great Gulf Front balcony I had pretty high expectations based off all the 4/5 star reviews and this place delivered Would recommend this location to any friends/family interested in vacationing in Pensacola

For the amount of staff on hand for services, they did an amazing job! Room was spotless and clean Bed was super comfortable and the ocean view from the bed was in perfect setting Food and food service was excellent

The evening bar staff 5 stars across the board! The girl that made our drinks was super knowledgeable and personable Her and the evening Chef made us feel like family That’s extremely rare now days Because of them we will be making Margaritaville Beach Hotels our new home away from home! Thanks guys!! 😊

Melissa Metcalf

The hotel is nice and the food and drinks are great We really enjoyed the location We didn’t watch much TV, but all they have is cable with no guide so finding something to watch was painful

We had to keep asking for clean towels Our room was cleaned one time during a stay of 8 days And finally, staff was driving a golf cart wide open in the parking deck For the price, we expected better and had better at other hotels close by

puddingg1 M Flegen

Beautiful suite with terrific ocean viewsOverall I was pleasantly surprised with how nice the hotel was It’s clearly the best in the Pensacola with great beach accessThe rooms was nicely appointed and had a huge bathroom with a separate tub and walk-in showerThe hotel staff was courteous and breakfast was goodIt is a shame that COVID has disrupted daily room cleaning and extras like room service but this is the case almost everywhere one stays

I would definitely stay at this hotel again If I had one critique for hotel management it’s that the hallways are starting to show their age and could use a fresh coat of paint

It was a great stay Indoor pool Real hot breakfast ( turkey sausage ☺️) offered

I loved the roomOnly thing was no blanket for my pull out bed But staff loaded me up with what they hadAll staff was ready and willing to help Will be our main place to stay

Beau Fleurs

OUTSTANDING STAFF AND PROPERTY! We have stayed here for ten days total, in two 5 day stints, and I feel very blessed to have gotten to know a tiny bit of the amazing staff! I will start with the property though: very very clean, updated, comfortable, and modern Beautiful pool at the perfect temperature, love the individualized temperature control in the rooms (for once you can actually set your room at the temperature you are most comfortable at!), and love the clean, large, well-appointed rooms The fridges are a tiny bit small, but they are an appropriate size for the room, and it is a hotel fridge, so oh well

The rooms all have COX cable, with a guide so you don’t have to channel surf The rooms are cozy, the beds are comfortable, and the blankets are warm But the best part of this property (that is already great!) is the STAFF! Ms Keisha was invaluable, she answered my questions prior to arrival, she checked our family in, she saw us every afternoon and evening, and even remembered our original room number when we came back a week later (just shows her attention to detail!) She takes customer relations seriously, never badmouthing other customers, always following up on any questions, and always having just the kindest, sweetest way of dealing with you that makes you feel like you are home! Also a HUGE shoutout to Ms Tiffany, Ms Amanda, and Ms Amber, we were so so grateful for each and every one of them They were ALL professional, ALL kind, and ALL experts in helping make our stay wonderful! It means a lot when you come back after a long day and they remember something small about you, and actually care about how you are doing I hope they are all recognized for the AMAZING service they each provide!Highly highly recommend this property: CLEAN, GREAT SERVICE, GREAT ROOMS, GREAT LOCATION If we ever need a hotel again in the local area, we will be staying here!!!

Maranda Hardin

We rented a king suite and it was very nice The staff was incredibly friendly upon check in The pool was fairly small, but it was nice

Overall, I would stay here again Docked a star because the bed was as hard as a rock You’d expect a room that cost that much and because it was a suite, that the bed would be a little more comfortable

Checked in the day before to inform them of our arrival @ 6 PM Arrived to the room and found the room to not be fully ready Bathroom was not cleaned

Housekeeping showed up the day after to clean Rooms were very roomy Staff was friendly and accommodations were good However, if you plan on eating breakfast you have to be on their schedule They close when they feel like closing (not 10 AM) Overall they need to work on their cleaning and breakfast Beach was just over the bridge Dogs enjoyed their stay as well

Let’s start with location first of all its located to many amazing restaurants and shopping but more importantly the BEACH The Service here is by far the best service we have ever had Grant has and continues to go above and beyond he is very thoughtful and helpful, Michelle also has helped us tremendously we couldn’t be happier staying here until we close on our home Everyone has been truly awesome

Very very very clean!

If you were to stay on North Davis highway this would be the hotel to stay at It’s clean They have free laundry

The pool is nice They have snacks all night long that you can go buy in a little snack shop You can charge it to the room There is no problem getting fresh towels They’re fresh sheets They allow pets It is just a nice place to stay People are friendly Staff is courteous and they take care of all your needs Don’t go anywhere else Make this your destination if you’re going to stay on that highway

I called ahead to see if they had a room available for an early morning check in because I am a day sleeper and the lady at the desk said sure I went in and started the process of checking in In the process the lady asked me if I was staying just one night

I answered yes and in fact I would be checking out at 6:30 the same day She then told me she only had availability for a next day check out and that she didn’t have a room for a same day checkout This made absolutely no sense that I had to leave and find another hotel What is the difference if I check out at 630 today or 1130 tomorrow?

I didn’t stay here, but I’ve made deliveries here The lady who greeted me at the entrance was friendly and helpful It appears to be a nice place to stay

I like how far back the hotel is from Davis hwy You wouldn’t know there are 2 hotels tucked in that back corner Parking was a bit tricky, even at night There doesn’t seem to be enough room to manuver easily The hotels are really close together so traffic is a bit hectic from both hotels guests coming and going

Hotel was very clean, probably one of the cleanest ones I’ve stayed at A staff member was always cleaning

good smell too Breakfast was just ok, could have had a better selection, especially adding bacon to the selection Got to have bacon!!!! Room was very clean and spacious Pool was awesome, only thing is, during our 4 day stay, never saw any maintenance person cleaning it?? We did report the numerous hornets nest in the pool area but was told hotel didn’t have any spray to kill them??? Supplier was out of stock So I took myself down the road to walmart and bought a can, came back and took care of those things!!! Hotel is close to everything you need, don’t have to travel far Overall, had a great stay and would stay there again!!

Rooms did not feel clean There were visible stains on the sheets when we checked in, dust and debris visible on floor in the room, hair in the sink/tubWe also never saw anyone at the front desk while we were there

Felt very uninvitingPublic restrooms were also dirty and not well cleaned near main lobbyBreakfast was not appetizing (bagel selected was stale) After seeing the cleanliness of the hotel, I did not trust to eat any hot breakfast optionsBeds were comfortable, but to pay $300 for one night while driving through, it definitely did not feel worth the price This hotel could be great but there is definitely lack of attention to detail likely due to staffing issues post covid

Chukwudi Ukandu

The room smelt good, temperature was just right, beds were made and looked clean and inviting, room and bathroom was clean and all appliances were available and accessible as advertised We weren’t aware it was raining not till we were about to pick something from the car The ladies at the front desk were courteous, patient and eager to assist us have a pleasant stay which we did

Complimentary breakfast was real hot breakfast

Marcus Heaton

Phone the front desk attendant was very welcoming and gave me best rates she could very pleasant person to deal with at the end of the day The rooms are awesome very clean roomie and ice cold on this very hot day Highways and sitting room out front very clean and friendly atmosphere I would highly recommend this hotel to any of my friends and family great place to stay

Our stay was nothing short of amazing We booked last minute due to a reservation with a different chain being a very scary experience, from the time we arrived front desk receptionist was so welcoming and kind The hotel was very clean as was our room and bathrooms

The beds were comfortable for my taste Noise was never an issue I decided to get Hilton points in place of breakfast but we did enjoy some cocktails at the bar that evening The bar staff was so nice and even made our son feel welcomed in the restaurant area with a Shirley temple Thank you Hilton staff for making our quick weekend trip a great one

Jax Jax

Great experience at the Hilton Garden Inn From the front desk to the clean rooms everything was perfect I stayed at another hotel in the area (that was the same price) not that long ago and the rooms were disgusting

Not the case here even though the cleaning crew wasshort staffed and they had to turn the whole hotel The front desk clerks were super help and cheerful I would definitely go back when I’m the the area again

We were early but stopped to see if we could go ahead and check in before an excursion we had planned so we could get our luggage out of the hot car Upon arrival we were greeted and asked if we were set on our king room we had booked? She offered us a complimentary upgrade with our diamond status to a king suite It made our stay that much better

The room was very spacious, clean and comfortable Bed was nice, as well as pillows and the shower Would definitely stay here again if we come back for a visit My only complaint is we were only there for one night Thanks for making our short stay so special!!

Melanie Jones

The staff are so friendly especially the nice breakfast manager She knew how to make you feel so welcome! The rooms are very nice, very clean! The price we paid I was a bit nervous to see the room, but it’s completely exceeded our expectations! I will definitely be booking with this place for now on! Such a short drive to the ocean as well Thank you so much 😊

Jennifer Wood
