- DBDarcie Bobrowski2 days ago5.0Great hotel! Service is top notch! Room was spotless…..so was the lobby and breakfast area. There was a school staying at the same time as me but when I went to breakfast it was fully stocked and everything was clean. Never would have known 50 kids were eating! Will be back!
- JJJonNov 3, 20255.0If you’re looking for a very clean (room smelled so nice) and comfortable place to stay… look no further! From the very nice late night employee who checked us in, to the kitchen staff, to the checkout desk, everyone was super friendly! The breakfast was fantastic! Kudos to the all the folks operating this location! I wish it was like this everywhere we stay! Definitely our place to stay in the future when in this area! Keep up the great work!
- BCBrian CarterNov 1, 20255.0I travel a lot and Hattiesburg is centrally located where I can stay and go see my dealers and not have to change hotels every night. Everyone here is SUPER nice and helpful. The rooms are VERY clean and they make you feel welcome. It’s the ONLY place I say when I’m in South MS.
- TWTaten WagnerOct 29, 20255.0Just stayed here on 10/27/2025. We have always had a good experience with Holiday Inn Express, but this one was definitely our best yet! The service was great, from the front desk to Ms. Jeanette who worked the breakfast area. They were friendly and went above the normal to make us feel welcomed and appreciated. To top it off the "stopper" in the bathtub actually worked, which was a first for us. The only issue I had was the way that the road was laid out when arriving to hotel, but that isnt their fault, that is a city issue. Highly recommend for your stay in Hattiesburg!
- JFJoy ForehandOct 26, 20255.0We met in there 2nd floor meeting room, for a 2 day training. It was a nice room and it served it's purpose. The only down fall was that public bathrooms were downstairs unless you had a room. But overall my experience was great and I recommend this hotel for any future stays.
