What guests think

At Holiday Inn Express & Suites - Sturbridge by IHG, travelers highlight friendly staff and a convenient location off the interstate with nearby dining, making it an easy base for road trips, Old Sturbridge Village, Brimfield, and Tree House visits.

Free breakfast is commonly appreciated for variety and convenience, though several guests found items cold or poorly replenished at times. A recurring drawback is the long-term pool closure—sometimes not clearly communicated—along with occasional issues like a broken elevator, hot water interruptions, and other maintenance gaps. Rooms are generally spacious, clean, and quiet, though some reported AC or heating inconsistencies, odors, or worn furnishings. Expect a clean, convenient stop with friendly service; verify pool and facility status in advance.

Generally it's a nice mid-range place to stay. I have stayed here several times for business. The pool has never been open in the many times I've stayed here. It's unfortunate since it would be nice to be able to swim during my stays. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Overall the stay was good. Location was great and had a very nice Panera right next door. The room was spacious and the beds were comfortable. However, the bathroom floor had not been cleaned and there was hair in various places. The carpet also appeared to not have been vacuumed because there were crumbs. We could have called the front desk but we checked-in after driving 10 hours and we were just tired. Overall a good stay except the cleanliness of the floor.

The hotel definitely feels a bit dated. The hallways were warm and seemed like there was no air conditioning running. Our room’s AC wasn’t on when we arrived, so it was uncomfortably hot—especially with temperatures outside over 100 degrees. It really would’ve made a difference if the room had been cooled ahead of time. The towels felt old and rough, and while the beds were decent, the couch was not clean. It had visible stains, and it was clear it hadn’t been properly cleaned. The cushions were flipped to hide the stains, but since we used the pull-out sofa, we saw everything. The carpet also felt slightly sticky, which didn’t add to the comfort. Breakfast was just okay. The eggs were pretty bad, the sausage looked and tasted rubbery, and the syrup for the pancakes was watered down. Overall, it was an okay stay, but we wouldn’t choose to come back. There are definitely better options out there for the price.

Checking in was easy, quick and friendly. The key card must of been worn out as it took holding it a few ways to get it to read. The room was very clean and smoke stain and smell free. It was a king standard room and the bed was very comfortably . There is a Kierug and a Green mountain couple coffee pods provided. My only complaint is the fluctuating shower temperature as it stays really hot for 20 or so minutes. Also when the faucet handle is turned to cold as in really cold it stays burning hot and then you have to restart the shower and itll fine. Also the free breakfast is great.

We truly enjoyed our stay. The room was clean, spacious & quiet. The bed was so comfortable, my husband and I both admitted that we had great sleep for the 5 nights we stayed. The blackout shades aided in the enhanced sleep experience. The bathroom was spacious and the shower was hot! Breakfast was unimpressive, but typical of any other hotel. I would suggest a microwave for instant oatmeal. We will definitely stay again

This is by far the highest quality hotel with the most reasonable price I stayed in during my 2 week vacation in New England. It’s why I saved it and booked it in advance this time! Breakfast area was clean, well-stocked and actively taken care of by staff, the room was clean and smelled pleasant, beds were super comfy, the room fan was not clunky but gave a pleasant white noise at night. I stayed in a two queens room and it was spacious! Would definitely stay again. Parking is also convenient and well-lit, and there is a Panera at the end of the parking lot.

It was okay. The housekeeping was absolutely phenomenal. The floor underneath the table near sofa was loose carpet tiles. The breakfast was mediocre. Not stocked sufficiently. Got down there at 9 and it was slim pickings. Stayed down there until breakfast closed and still did not replenish the meats or eggs/omelets. Meanwhile I saw maintenance and breakfast guy responsible going to take a smoke break in the front. Also a disappointment the pool was closed- wish there was a way for that to be made known at time of reservation as it was apparent it was out of commission for awhile.
