Holiday Inn Express Middlesbrough - Centre Square by IHG

10/10 Excellent
"Room was clean and comfortable with a large walk-in shower. Staff were friendly and helpful. There was a reasonable choice of items for breakfast including cereal, yoghourt, juice and some hot options. There was ample parking at the back of the hotel in the Cleveland Centre car park at a very impressive charge of £6.00 per day."
