What guests think

At Holiday Inn Express - Wigan by IHG, guests consistently praise the friendly, accommodating staff, generally clean, comfortable rooms, and convenient access for road travel and the nearby stadium, with many finding breakfast and on-site meals satisfying and good value.

Some reviews note stained bedroom carpets, worn shower trays, or a damp smell in certain rooms. A recurring gripe is room climate and connectivity: several guests experienced cold rooms or faulty heating, weak shower pressure, and patchy Wi-Fi or noisy A/C or TVs. However, some guests reported cold breakfast items, limited variety, or uneven dinner quality. Expect a modern, practical stopover outside the centre, with free parking and EV charging.

When trying to check in the desk staff saw me approaching and instead answered the phone to keep us waiting (as if a phone customer is more important than a customer who is already present.) Advertised as having an EV charger but doesn't note they charge a flat fee of £25 regardless of charge used (more expensive than a motorway services so total rip off.) Walls are paper thin so people coming back at 2am woke us up and their chatting kept us awake for an hour, also the person next to us snooring was obnoxious to listen to.

Room was freezing cold and never warmed up. Electric charging / parking is now £25 per night which is ridiculous. Very poor service and standards. This hotel never used to be this bad it’s only in the last month, they are really penny pinching.

Overall a great stay. The staff were friendly and the room was clean with all the facilities you would need ( ironing board and iron, hairdrier and toiletries, flat screen tv). I had dinner which was lovely and there is plenty of choice on the menus. There is a well stocked bar and sky news in the seating/dining area. Breakfast is a self service buffet but staff are on hand to help and had a wide choice of food (bit more fruit choices would be nice).

This property has really good reviews online but our room was gross. Stains all over the carpet & headboard that appeared to be an old pet accident. Smelled a bit like smoke in our room too even though it was a smoke free room. We were only here here to sleep so it was fine for a night.

Room 10 had a really bad damp smell as soon as we walked in. As it was 11pm when we checked in, we diod not complain but mentioned it on departure. Also green light on a/c control shone very brightly in the dark and occasional rumbling noise in bathroom caused poor nights sleep. Good breakfast in morning, staff very pleasant

Bathroom clean but food/drink stains all over carpet in bedroom and pen marks on duvet cover. Breakfast was ok. Coffee good. And fresh food put out regularly. Not a huge choice of hot items. Shower tray had marks all over too which did not look appealing. Bed was rock hard and only one pillow each but reception did provide extra pillows upon request. All staff very friendly and helpful.

Free WiFi did not work and couldn’t get a reception in the room so couldn’t make phone calls to family, read emails or browse the internet. To make matters worse the air conditioning vent kept making a horrendous noise throughout the duration of the night preventing me from getting a decent sleep. Room was clean and bathroom looked new, staff were friendly enough - on balance, just unfortunate to get the room I did.

We travelled as a family of 3, and had plenty of room. Breakfast was plentiful and all areas were cleaned and maintained to a high standard throughout. As soon as dishes were finished with, the staff were quickly removing and cleaning tables. Would highly recommend this hotel to friends and family and will 100% be visiting again. Thank you to all the staff for an amazing stay.

Excellent hotel for an overnight stop. We stayed on route to Folkestone from Glasgow & had a very comfortable stay. The room was clean & spacious and the air con was really appreciated in the hot weather. Most of all the service was excellent! I had to contact hotel in advance as I'm on quite a specific low fat diet for medical reasons. They really went above and beyond to make sure I had something to eat for an evening meal & breakfast. This really made me much happier and less anxious about eating away from my own home cooking. My husbands & daughters meals were also fab & we found the prices really reasonable. Would definitely stay here again! Thanks so much to all the staff, you were fantastic!

Location

Convenient for drivers and events at the nearby stadium, with easy motorway access and a generally quiet setting. Several note it’s on an industrial estate/out of town, so less suitable for walking into the centre.
