Var did a great job, Byron is excellent bartender. Food is wonderful, way above antipations for a domestic Holiday Inn Express.
David at the front desk, is the reason we will come back again. Housekeeping ladies did way above and beyond to help us.

We booked a wedding group here and secured a great rate.
On Saturday, I asked the evening shift front desk rep to deliver a honeymoon basket to the room and she did. The couple was very pleased.
Only thing to be aware of. Breakfast is not included. $10 additional charge.

Our recent event at the Holiday Inn San Marcos Convention Center was outstanding from start to finish! Angel, the manager, was absolutely exceptional — everything was set up far beyond our expectations. The banquet rooms were beautifully arranged and completely ready for us, including Audio/Visual equipment that made setup effortless.
Ed was very professional and attentive, assuring us that he’d be available every step of the way — and he truly was. Carol at the front desk took wonderful care of us, making sure our rooms were perfect and that we had everything we needed throughout our stay.
Var at breakfast provided excellent service — attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed to start our day right.
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience from the entire team. The level of service and attention to detail made everything go smoothly. I highly recommend the Holiday Inn San Marcos Convention Center for meetings, banquets, parties, or any type of gathering. You’ll be in great hands here!
