What guests think

Travellers describe Holiday Inn Express & Suites Edinburg- Mcallen Area by IHG as generally clean and comfortable, with friendly staff, spacious rooms, and a convenient location near shopping, while breakfast earns praise but can be inconsistent in restocking or temperature.

Recurring drawbacks are weak shower water pressure or unreliable hot water, occasional musty odors or pests, and rooms not ready at check-in or missed housekeeping. Some guests also experienced noise from neighbors or hallways, elevator outages, and sporadic billing or front-desk responsiveness problems. Expect a convenient, value‑minded stay with strengths in cleanliness and space, but variability in maintenance and service.

Nice property in a safe location but needs some maintenance attention. Room was quiet and clean but heat would not come on. Gym was decent but treadmills were broken. Breakfast was average. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Would be a solid 4 if maintenance issues were addressed.

There seem to be a shortage of towels, but housekeeping was very friendly about bringing them when they were available. The pool was freezing cold you couldn’t swim in it unless you were a child who loves the cold. The laundry room was out of service the entire 18 days I was there. But overall the stay what did I eat of cereal was great.

We liked the service and how clean the property was. When we stayed there, the elevator had some issues and were not able to use it at times. My only issue with this property was that the restroom does not have a vent fan and it gets pretty hot after you shower or when someone uses the restroom. Aside from that, overall our stay was very pleasant.

The hotel is clean and the staff were good also, the downside is it was a noisy place. My room was on the second floor along the back side just to one side of the pool. My first night was a Saturday and the pool was full of screaming kids then they moved to running and screaming up the hallway. Sunday night an event next door sound system was extremely loud. And every night I had to listen to a neighbors dog bark all night. The hotel backs right up to a neighborhood and some idiots dog barks all night long, I don’t know how the neighbors deal with it.

The room was decent and we didn’t have any major issues. The low rating is because of how service was. When we arrived to our room we didn’t have any towels, we had to come down and they only gave us 2. We needed 4. The next day it was the same problem and after 3-4 hours they finally gave us new towels.

Terrible customer service, booked and paid for a room in advance and called to confirm before arrival. Upon arrival was told our room was given to someone else so we had to cram 6 people into an uncomfortable room. Original room booked contained two beds and a pull out sofa sleeper. Front desk advised "our room wasn't available and we could take what they had or leave and find somewhere else to stay". Only thing we enjoyed was the breakfast.

I had trouble with billing and this is the second time for this property. If you stay here don't pre-pay with Expedia. Pay at the property instead. Both time the issues was eventually resolved but we spent several hours on the phone with the local manager in Edinburg trying to resolve the issue. Also, I was charged for an iron. We were tired when we checked in and did not check for an iron in the room and it was missing at the end of our stay so we were charged for it. We have spent thousand of dollars at this hotel over the years and it is so sad that they are losing a loyal customer over a $30 iron and billing issues. We did not take the iron and we will not stay here again.

Usually have a great experience with IHG but this specific location was rude. There was a storm and there was no power so we were turned away which was no big deal and understandable. We were told to come the next morning and they would refund one night and check us in. When we came the next morning the front desk said they just canceled our reservation and there was nothing he could do about it. I understand certain things happen and are out of your control but just canceling a reservation and telling us to kick rocks wasn't helpful. It was a prepaid room

Our third time being here. Excellent facilities, friendly and accommodating staff, and convenience to focal pickup are all positives (though, like most locations in the area, Edinburg is horizontally developed, so a car is necessary to get to most locations). And the breakfast is several notches above the usual. Highly recommended.

Stay was good, but the free breakfast wasn’t that great. They were out of stock of all the drinks. There wasn’t milk nor juice, so cereal wasn’t an option. The only thing to drink was water. I ate breakfast around 8:45 and breakfast ends at 10. There wasn’t much food left when I got there and nothing got restocked. But overall great stay, check in and check out were easy and it was very peaceful.
