The Good

Guests typically enjoyed comfortable stays at this hotel and some guests branded it "the best hotel in Prince Albert" due to it being the newest facility.

It offered clean and well-equipped rooms with mini-fridges, microwaves and comfortable beds. Rooms on the east side were said to have good views.

Many guests found it handy to the highway and liked having shops, groceries and restaurants in walking distance.

Many enjoyed the relaxing and friendly atmosphere of the hotel, provided by smiling, attentive and courteous staff.

Guests often enjoyed the free breakfast which offered a large selection of hot and cold items in a spacious and comfortable breakfast room. Some mentioned that the staff prepared to-go breakfasts for them, as they were leaving earlier than the usual breakfast time.

The Bad

There was some negative feedback online for the hotel.

Some guests found the room rates high "for an average room".

Some mentioned that the area contained a couple of older hotels which made the Holiday Inn seem less appealing, but upon entry the atmosphere was actually quite comfortable.

Some guests complained about the parking lot. It was found to be limited when the hotel was full, the entry was not well marked from the main street, and sections of it were not paved giving the sense to some that cars may not be secure.

Occasionally guests were disturbed by noisy hockey teams that were allowed to run in the hallways, a slow elevator and TVs not working.
