    Have stayed at this location probably 25 times. Theres always been complimentary bottles of water in the room....it sounds petty but you come to expect certain things., especially for what they charge per night. Plus always had cookies popcorn in the lobby....nice welcoming touches are gone. To top it off the shower hasn't been cleaned....there's long black hair on the shower control handle. Id post a pic but this page won't let me. Nasty Somebody's getting stingy. We will look else where next time.

    Our Airbnb fell through at 2am after a long drive to Pensacola, and we were pretty stressed. We called the Holiday Inn Express, and Daniel was super kind and got us set up with rooms right away. Throughout our stay, the breakfast crew was just as great, so friendly and welcoming (wish we got their names). Breakfast selection is delicious, hot, and full of nice surprises (there’s a fun pancake machine). Room was clean, bed comfortable, hot shower. We’ll definitely stay at a Holiday Inn Express again after this experience!

    Great location to walk downtown area of Pensacola. We had a great view of bridge over Pensacola Bay at sunrise (distant 🌅 view but beautiful). We recommend this hotel.

    This is our go-to hotel when we're in Pensacola and want to stay downtown. HIE IHG also has an awesome hotel at Pensacola Beach where we stay as well. Great locations, staff, comfortable beds with great sheets, good breakfast, and we love the new coffee and complimentary cookies. Lots of great exploring downtown and the beach location couldn't be better.
