What guests think

At Holiday Inn Express & Suites Rapid City by IHG, guests frequently praise the friendly staff and convenient location near the interstate and shopping, while noting some maintenance issues and occasional cleanliness lapses during otherwise comfortable stays.

Rooms are often clean and quiet, and families appreciate the pool and hot tub, but several reviews note hard or aging mattresses, dated finishes, and intermittent HVAC or plumbing problems including slow or clogged drains. Breakfast is widely seen as a strong point with hot and cold choices, though a few guests found items picked over. Expect a family-friendly stay that is comfortable overall but variable in upkeep.

Part of the reason we chose this hotel was for the pool area because it looked great for little kids. It is great for kids but not little little kiddos. We have a 2 year old and thought it looked like a splash pad area which would be perfect. It was a little intense for little ones and she didn’t like it at all. It was like standing in a strong shower and no chance to not get sprayed. If you were in the pool area you were getting sprayed. And every couple of minutes the large bucket of water would empty and dump out a ton of water. If a 2 year old was under it they would probably be knocked over. So yeah. If you want the pool area for little ones it works if your kids are on the older side but not so much for 2-3 year olds. Awesome for mid to older kids but not toddlers. It ended up working out if we just didn’t turn the water on and then she could play in the 1 foot water but if anyone else was around then the water was going. Everything else was great. Nice hotel.

Booked a double queen room for 2 nights. Upon checking in and entering the room, one bed clealy hadnt had the sheets changed and the bed was made nicely but the sheets were full of hair and dirt. The room also smelled like mildew and cigarette smoke. The front desk employee was able to give us new sheets to put on both beds. Not ideal, but hey its clean sheets. Breakfast was ok. Pretty picked over. There weren't many people in the seating area while we were there, but most of the tables were dirty so it must have been busy at some point. I could tell there would have been more food options as bins were sitting empty in a few areas. Hot tub was warm, towels were stocked. Honestly a lot of my poor review comes from the dirty sheets and room smell. I don't smoke and I really don't enjoy the smell. I also would prefer to change my sheets while im on vacation. Most motels I have previously stayed at have enployed some sort of housekeeping staff. Decent place, nothing to write home about for us.

Exceptionally clean room as well as common areas in the hotel. It was easy to walk with my cane as it has a zero-step entrance which I very much appreciated. The front desk associate was pleasant and helpful in assuring us our room would be located near the entrance so as to not require a lot of walking due to recent knee pain.We thoroughly enjoyed the wonderful offerings at the complimentary breakfast! It was impressive that they had some gluten free selections, as well as for lactose intolerant individuals. There was a wide variety of food options- literally something for everyone plus plenty of comfortable seating options. The pool area looked very accommodating and family friendly, although we didn’t use that facility. Very nice place to stay and highly recommend it for anyone.

the entry way into the hotel smelled terrible. the carpet in the hallways was dirty. our shoes stuck to the area of hard floor in our room. I could feel a hard ridge down the middle of my bed; did not dare sleep close to one side or I would have rolled off. I always stay at Holiday Inn Express hotels but after this stay I will think twice about that.

The check in area was in good shape and the staff was super friendly. The pool area was average to good. However, when it came to the quality of the room, this property failed horribly. The tile floor in the entry and bathroom was cracked and falling apart. The orange carpet gave it an old, dirty feeling. There was a place on the bathroom wall where something had previously hung with fading and wall studs still present. The lack of electronic plug ins for a “high” quality hotel was lacking. The bathroom fan continually stayed “on” and the sensor light flickered. You could tell around the bathroom fan that in the past something had gone on with brown spots, water perhaps. It just felt like the room given was the last, run down room in the hotel. For the price paid, and Holiday Inn’s reputation, I really expected more and was disappointed.

This is an accommodating Holiday Inn Express hotel. It is very near the Rushmore mall and associated shopping. Downtown Rapid City is a ways away. One would not be able to walk from this hotel to any other business. There are a couple of gas stations, nearby, and the hotel is just off interstate 90. The hotel has a nice swimming pool. The room was clean and well put together. Breakfast was good. This is a fairly good choice for shopping and for traveling on interstate 90.
