I had no complaints about this Holiday inn location. Bed was comfy and the pillows didn't suck to high heaven. Staff was pretty swell as well. All in all I had a good stay. Big chill vibes all around.

Rooms were very nice. Gym was about small but good. It had the cable weights machine which is great. The breakfast was identical each day. Some variety would be welcome.

I’ve been to many Holiday Inns as an IHG member and this location is by far one of the best, if not the best stay I’ve had. Very clean and updated. It was peaceful up on the top floor. Desk staff were very helpful and available immediately to answer my questions. This will definitely be my place to stay while in Bismarck.
