What guests think

At Holiday Inn Express - Bethlehem by IHG, guests frequently highlight clean rooms and a convenient location near shopping, dining, and highways, while experiences vary with breakfast quality, room comfort, and occasional facility disruptions.

Service is widely praised as welcoming and accommodating, though some report slow or difficult check-in, billing or deposit frustrations, and sporadic unhelpful interactions.

The desk receptionist was very friendly as was the gentleman in charge of the breakfast bar. Breakfast bar was good. Wife really enjoyed the omelette. The room we stayed in had usb and outlets hit or miss. The USB’s need repairing for sure. The tile look and felt like it needed better cleaning. Only enough towels for 2 people even though the reservation was for 4. One towel looked bad worn. Desk receptionist was helpful in getting us more. Pool was closed for the season. Did not see any notice of that when making the reservation but that’s neither here nor there. Kids were disappointed. Room had some shady repairs but did have a notice about “remodeling” on the front entrance. There is a plethora of dining options close by, several within walking distance.

This hotel says its a Holiday Inn Express on the building and the bill but the inside says Motel 6! Only one elevator, only one ice maker. Room was for 4 adults only had 2 sets of towels. Reserved a suite, which was advertised as 300 extra square feet, nope the room was ONLY 300 square feet! Airfilters were dirty! Owner and wife are on site. He is EXTREMELY rude! Would not speak to me, would tell his employee the answers to my questions. He would sit on the couch and watch a line form as people waited to check in. Spoke loudly on speaker phone in the packed lobby. I will take my business and money to another hotel.

All staff: was very very nice. Food: Watered down juices except orange. Pancake Machine was out of order. Bacon not cooked. Asked for it to be microwaved. Very very fatty. Pool: Closed for maintenance the entire 3 night stay. No one knew why. We booked this hotel because it was advertised. Room: No “do not disturb” sign for our door knob. The mattress AND pillows in bad shape. We received 1 towel per person. Very thin old towels. No king sheet on the bed. Toilet was old style, low to the floor. No mouth wash, or shower cap. Ice Machine: Door map indicated it was on the third floor. It was not. Took a $50 deposit from us for “incidentals”. Never had that happen before. Waiting for our refund.

We were quite upset and amazed that a brand new building did not have air. We called and front desk and they also could not get it to work. We asked for a fan and they did not have one. The windows did not open either. This made for not a good night of sleep. On the other hand, the water was extremely hot which I liked and it was reasonably priced. Just think for a brand new building this is unacceptable.

I absolutely loved my stay here. Staff was so nice! I ended up booking two additional days and they let me keep my room. The rooms were clean and nice. I always had fresh towels. I had to do laundry and it was convenient and affordable. I will stay here again! Wonderful hotel in the middle of everything!

We only stayed 1 night but I was very impressed. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The room was very clean, nice modern decor, bathroom had great lighting and the bed was very comfortable (both mattress and linens). Breakfast had several options from cold/hot cereals, eggs, sausage, bacon, omelets, different selections of breads and pastries and juices. There wasn't a waffle maker, instead they had a pancake maker. We were not impressed with the quality of the pancakes and we heard other people in the dining area complaining about the pancakes as well. That would be my only recommendation, is that they switch that machine out for a waffle maker. I would highly recommend this hotel.

My room was 318 and apparently was next-door to a room which housed security equipment. This equipment admitted mechanical noise randomly throughout the night. I had a terrible night sleep because of that. If I had known, I would have asked for a room farther away. The front desk person at checkout said it was the PBX room. She said she was sorry because it does make this mechanical noise similar to an air conditioner turning on. And it makes that noise every 3 to 5 minutes. I tried everything possible from earplugs to putting my head under a pillow. Other than that, that was extremely soft to the point of being uncomfortable. The mattress pad was such poor quality that the stuffing had balled up. And one of the beds sheets were very pilly. The pillows were very uncomfortable. I would not recommend this hotel. It was, however very clean and well situated to the needs I had in the area.

Upon arriving we couldn't access our room due to batteries being dead. Had to wait for them to figure out how to change. My husband figured it out. The room was extremely damp and made it feel like you were camping outside versus in a hotel. The floor had a damp feeling. Everything about the room was sticky and uncomfortable but served the purpose of having somewhere to sleep. Maybe one plug out of all the extras worked for us.

The hotel looks very new and clean on arrival, but my room was awful. The wall thermostat is only a thermometer. My room was 84° when I entered. It smelled awful. It was damp and musty and smelled like a basement dungeon. Window unit on full blast got it down to 75° by the next morning, but that was probably the same as outside temperature. Management confirmed that the room smelled terrible, but was not willing to make any concessions. The breakfast is pretty weak, featuring day-old bread, and some other quick heat options.

I've stayed here before, so I was familiar with the hotel. The only problem I experienced was my room had a "roll-in" shower, which I did not expect nor need. The shower curtain was about 8 inches too short for a roll in shower, so the bathroom floor was flooded after my shower, and I had to call for more towels to clean up the mess. I requested to be moved to another room the next day (I was too tired to move that night, having already had a shower and in my night clothes.) They did accommodate my request, and the rest of the stay was great.

The room was standard for HIE, but the shower never got above lukewarm. The coffee in the breakfast room was lukewarm as well. The front desk was no help giving me a proper receipt as they said I booked it through Hotels.com. Subsequently, the front desk charged me for the room and then put a second charge of $50 on our credit card. Getting this charge cleared has been a problem since HIE customer service is non-existent. I was there on business, so I'll sleep in my car before I book this place again.
