What guests think

Reviews of Holiday Inn Express & Suites Mountain View Silicon Valley by IHG describe a generally clean, modern hotel with comfortable rooms and helpful staff, but also recurring renovation impacts and occasional maintenance and service lapses.

Many find it well placed for Shoreline Amphitheatre and downtown access, and on-site parking is appreciated. At times breakfast and other amenities were unavailable, and several reviews mention ants, unpleasant odors, or in-room problems such as faulty shades, a nonworking TV, leaks, or slow hot water. Overall, it suits travelers seeking a practical base near Shoreline, provided you verify which amenities are operating.

Clean and efficient, well designed room features. Better signage when you enter street level parking lot directing you to underground parking for lobby entrance.

This hotel where we stay every time we go to a concert at Shoreline. Excellent hotel and super clean. The staff is always very professional and super friendly. The hotel is located in a good area. Only thing I didn’t like is that they didn’t have security cameras in the parking lot other than that everything is always fantastic.

Hotel was under renovation breakfast area closed and no vending machines. None at the desk at 5 pm. Desk person came out of a nearby room from a nap after I called the hotel multiple times and rang the bell for a half hour. The sleepy lady checking us in offered no apologies and no direction towards our room location. Terrible hotel experience.

Hotel is under a remodel but that only affected us a small amount as the breakfast area was not in use. The room was very nice with many ammenties. Very clean. The halls and lobby are not air conditioned so a bit warm (outside temp was high 90's). Overall, we had a great experience.

The hotel is under renovations and will be a very nice and comfortable place in the future. All extras like breakfast, laundry and business center are closed currently. Another guest set off the fire alarm at 1 am which was disturbing (could not be helped by staff...just dumb guest not following the no vaping/smoking policy). Our room also lacked readily available hot water and we wasted a lot of water waiting for water to be hot enough to shower.

Have nothing bad to say about this hotel. Hotel was clean and room was spacious. Parking can be tight in garage but there’s parking outside of garage if rather park there. Only recommendation is have a better sign on where the Lobby is(either in garage or outside of garage) and which floor it’s on if park in garage.

I booked a 4 person room (1 kings & 1 sofa bed) and was only given enough pillows for 2 people, called front desk for extra pillows and blankets and was told they will send some up. No one came but we had to leave, I called the front desk after we came back around 11pm and was told they dont have anymore pillows available. Went downstairs to grab my suber thin blanket and ask them how is that I book a 4 person room and given only enough supplies to accommodate 2 people? I was told sorry we are fully booked. It was too late to pack up and book elsewhere at this point.
