What guests think

At Holiday Inn Corpus Christi Downtown Marina by IHG, guests praise the central waterfront location and welcoming staff, while recurring complaints cite dated, maintenance-prone rooms, inconsistent cleanliness, slow check-in, and paid garage parking.

Typical room drawbacks include small bathrooms, variable A/C, street or elevator noise, and balconies kept locked despite bay views. Facilities like the bar and patio are appreciated, but the pool is frequently described as small, cloudy, or under maintenance, and elevators can be slow or out of service. Breakfast and bar food range from decent to disappointing, with limited menus at times and no free breakfast. Expect great views, but an older property with uneven upkeep.

Need to pay 18$ per day for parking even if you book with them. Decide to pick this location due to the location it is located downtown area , and for the pool , upon arrive we would told pool with closed due to construction. Kids were really sad. I wish communication would have been more better on letting customers know pool would be closed before booking. Asked for a manager was told no manger available and that they would pass the message . Never got a call or nothing . Rooms have balcony but are shut and not allowed to open. Rooms have microwave and fridge. Beds are comfortable. Good stay other then kids not having pool.

Staff was very friendly. However we waited almost an hour for the elevators everyday to get to our room. Check out was horrible, everyone was checking out at the same time and no one was able to access the elevators. We finally decided to take the stairs with our 5 yo, 5 mo and luggage (we were on the 5th floor). We were not the only ones taking the stairs and that created a safety hazard as the stairs were not equipped for 50+ people taking the stairs at a time. The hvac system was not running to its potential not to mention the weather was great! We kept the hvac temp at 66 to keep it a comfortable setting. Our room had a smelly carpet, the ceiling looked like it had been patched several times. Tv only had local channels not even an option for Apps. The pool was foggy and very dirty. Not to mention how unsteady and unsafe the floor felt. The furniture was extremely outdated, faded and some even broken. I do not recommend this place.

This location is a health and safety hazard. My family and I checked out early, attempted to get a refund, were told we would get one, and over 10 days later, no refund has come through. We left with rashes. There was mold in the shower/bath, visible in on shower ceiling tiles, stains on furniture, holes in walls, and the balconies are not accessible as advertised. Electrical fixtures were hanging as well.

The lobby and bar area was awesome and staff was amazing. That being said...The room furniture was peeling. The window to overlook the marina was absolutely filthy. The comforters on both beds were dirty. (One even had crumbs on it!) The ac didn't work very well. It was extremely warm in the room, which made it difficult to sleep. Although that part is a bit understandable since we were on a higher floor. They also only gave me a $0.01 refund on my deposit, when nothing was even touched in the room aside from the beds and shower.

The room was outdated. Our AC unit was leaking so the carpet was all wet. The carpet didn’t appear to have been vacuumed. It looked and felt dirty. The ceiling had patch marks where maybe it leaked and they patched it then repainted. We had to keep the AC at 65 in order for the room to be cool. The bathroom was small.

There was water damage on the walls under the sink. TV remote worked to change channels but not to turn TV off or on. Overall it was ok but not worth the nightly price paid. Will not stay here again.

We asked for towels and told their weren't any at the time because their drying okay understandable. Then they said they would will take some to your room, they never came. Customer service was really great we were able to check in early which is always a plus, thank you for that! Thank you to the housekeeping for check up on our room.

Also the AC for the room was set at 72 even if you lowered the temperature. I only know this because i have thermal reader and anytime it went above 72 the ac would kick on stronger

I had my daughter pick it up and what do you know… the money that was in there, was missing ! They literally stole money that I WORKED FOR !! Hotel had cracks and leaks everywhere. Pool water looked dirty and foggy. I honestly will never return.

I arrived early a few hours 130 pm and asked if I could check in early, was told no, that is ok, no harm no foul, I was given a list to put my name down and was told I would be given a call when rooms would be ready to check in. Check in time is at 4 pm, I showed up 245 just in case and it was a mad house approximately 50 people in line or more so. 4 pm line is bigger and check ins just start, 545 pm my wife and I finally get our room and no phone call still to let me know my room was ready, so the counter person just threw a list at me to appease me in stead of help me. She was extremely rude and even snatched the list out of my hand after I let her know the amount for my stay was already taken out of my account so I will be needing a room at check in time since she would not allow me to check in early. I met a couple at the swimming pool said they got their room at 830 and they put their name on "the list" before I did. Piss poor management, piss poor scheduling and piss poor experience. Samantha G at check in was a bright star amongst all of this. SHE NEEDS A promotion or raise. Extremly unhappy customer

This place has lack of customer service.

The front desk staff was very inefficient with check-in. Two lines formed and one line was very quick while the other stalled for over 40 minutes. The front desk staff made zero effort to mitigate this. The next day, the elevator broke for several hours, and the front desk staff said there’s no stairs. Overall, the hotel is OK, obviously outdated, but not bad if it wasn’t for the limited, inexperienced, and generally unprofessional staff.

As far as location it is a very convenient location. Easy walking to the Concrete Street Amphitheater, the American Bank Center . The rooms have amazing views of the bay and the hotel offers decent amenities, bar w/ food to order, a good breakfast and a nice convenience store in the main lobby. The rooms do need a touch of up dating, we found the rooms lacked an abundance of electrical plugs, no in room safe to lock up valuables and to have to pay 17.00 a day to self park at a hotel is a bit much. All in all tho I would stay here again

My room was not very clean and I did ask for the room to be cleaned the next day, however, I am not sure that was done because I never received coffee cups to have coffee in my room in the morning. So I have to assume that it was not done. The bar food was very good, however, the service was lacking. Many times the employees would be out smoking when the bar would be full, and service was very slow and inconsiderate. I thought the breakfast bar was also a downer, however, some of the food tasted fine, the fact that the coffee was served in carafes at lukewarm temperature, I had to buy coffee from the coffee shop just to get a hot cup of coffee. In general, the breakfast bar was subpar at best, as well as the service. Lastly, wow this particular location is not very updated, I think the staff acted very nonchalant and service reflected that. I would however brag on one employee, he gets 5 stars, and that’s the maintenance man. He services the entire property and addressed my needs immediately by checking the air and bringing me a fan. He was the bright light to a poor experience.

When I got in the room the AC was off and temperature was 75. I turned the AC unit on and the air flow was next to nothing coming from the vents, I noticed the filter was so discolored and fill of dust. I climbed on the couch and removed the filter to find a date of February 2024 written in pen, this is December. The balcony door did not shut all the way, there was warm air coming in which made it not possible to cool the room completely down. The wall paper in the bathroom was pealing off and was dirty. There were stains on the couch so I asked for a clean blanket to cover the couch so I could sit on it. They charged me $20 to park in the parking garage but failed to tell me I could park across the street for free in the empty lot. The breakfast was amazing but way over priced at $15 per person, there was absolutely nothing fancy about the breakfast. Honestly for what they charge for parking in an unsecured parking garage, breakfast should have been free. I will not stay at this hotel again. I give it one star rating.
