Holiday Inn Express Middlesbrough - Centre Square by IHG

Parking is via the adjacent shopping centre multi-storey (reported as convenient and reasonably priced), but several guests struggled to find the entrance, noted limited drop-off space, and height restrictions for larger vehicles. Bar facilities exist, though comfort and cleanliness of the area felt mixed.

Rooms are often reported as clean or spotless, but there are recurring complaints about stained or unclean linens, dirty hallways, and public areas not tidied promptly.

Rooms are generally comfortable, with some spacious and modern, but noise from streets or service areas affects certain rooms, and the layout can mean long walks or two lifts to reach them. Occasional issues include uncomfortable beds or sofa beds, poor in-room Wi-Fi, cold temperature on arrival, small rooms for three, and intermittent TV problems.

Service is frequently praised as friendly, helpful and efficient, with staff accommodating busy periods and special requests. A few guests reported curt reception interactions, an early knock from housekeeping, or delays receiving emailed receipts.

Central, walkable spot near shops, restaurants, the train station and Teesside University, with the football ground about a 15-minute walk. Some guests felt the immediate surroundings were less appealing and noted nightlife or traffic noise.

Breakfast is widely viewed as good value and tasty, with some appreciating extended hours and unlimited coffees; critiques mention limited choices (e.g., only scrambled eggs), repetition, and weak vegetarian options. One review notes no room service.
