Holiday Inn Express - Leigh Sports Village

Nice HIE. I would stay again. The rooms are clean, comfortable and quiet. There was an issue with the air circulation (HVAC unit), but staff quickly provided a fan. There is a grocery store conveniently right next door; as well as a sports stadium. I have to agree with other reviews that the breakfast is not palatable. Powdered eggs, and the bacon and sausages neither smelled or tasted right. So opted for continental style breakfast, i.e., toast, juice, and coffee. Parking is included.

Nice room, plenty of parking, Morrisons supermarket and the rugby stadium 2 minutes and a pub restaurant 5 minutes away. Retail park and Leigh town center 5 minutes by car or 20 minutes walk away. All of the staff were friendly and helpful.

I've used this hotel a few times while travelling for work. Staff are always really friendly and helpful. On site gym is adequate and has no additional cost. Parking can be hit and miss if there is an event on at the stadium. This normally clears out later in the evening. WiFi could be better, hotel was fairly busy on the last stay and WiFi was not accepting any further connections. Good location with a few restaurants and entertainment in the area if you decide to venture out

I stayed over Ironman weekend so the hotel was fairly busy. The staff were of the highest calibre being friendly and accommodating. The hotel itself is modern and clean. Rooms were spacious and quiet with excellent house keeping. The air con was a little on the noisy side but no complaints otherwise. The restaurant was good with a nice menu and breakfast. The hotel even laid on a special Ironman breakfast at 230am on race day, how's that for service? I won't hesitate to stay again when I am next in Leigh.

This would be a really lovely cheap hotel if you wasn't woken up every 5 minutes be ridiculously loud slamming doors (that you even feel) and if the WiFi wasn't so slow (5mbps). I used to get faster internet back in 2005. Otherwise, the rooms are always clean, the staff are great.

Above average holiday Inn express hotel. I was here Saturday night and there was a wedding band playing. I was fine with noise and they finished around 11pm. The breakfast area wasn't the biggest. Apart from that I was happy to stay here.

Always our favourite chain. Great stay in Leigh. Staff were efficient,friendly and helpful. Room was immaculate as usual. They're just so laid back here and leave customers to their own devices. Food was lovely, and all in all it made for a very pleasant weekend. We will be sure to return next time we visit Leigh sports village.

As a stopover it was a good place to stay. Staff friendly and service efficient. Buffet style meal service worked well and good choice available. Coffee tea dispensers not easy to use in public areas. Rooms clean and facilities ok other than mattress not that comfortable. Pillows terrible hard and lumpy!! Decor new and everything clean.

Stayed with a golfing group for 2 nights service and rooms fine.The food however I can honestly say is the worst I have ever experienced in my whole life. On the second night over 50 % of our group of 44 went elsewhere to eat. Breakfast was OK with plenty of choice but lacked mushrooms tomatoes fried eggs and fried bread.Plates were also not warmed and the food quicly went cold.Will not return.

understaffed... Not the staffs fault as they ran around and did the best they could and that's not why they lost a star.... I knocked off a star because the heating didn't work (or the controls where too complex) and the room was was cold... i did find a plug in electric heater but wasn't comfortable leaving this on all the time

Breakfast, ran out of everything, everyone was waiting for food plates and cutlery. Staff couldn't cope with numbers. Once on the plate food was fine. Felt sorry for the two staff on duty, they had to do everything and deal with disgruntled customers

Nice, clean and priced just right. Would have been rated great, but there is a hidden £20 authorisation charge for every room. No mention on the website and even though no other facilities are used, they would not allow you to book without the additional charge. Of course it is credited back the following day....taking the liberty

The only reason why I'm not giving 5 stars all around is because there is no phone in the room and it was a bit of a surprise, also the TV could be a bit larger and allow streaming from personal devices. Other than that is perfect for a quick stop. No frills. But great where it matters.

Stayed from Mon night 8/8/22 to Fri morning 12/8/22 working in the area. Had my super fast charger go walkies from my room on the 2nd day of my stay. I told management at reception who promised they would make enquiries and either find or replace it. It wasn't followed through with and I heard nothing before I left to replace it. Be warned... lock up anything and I mean anything in a safe that you don't want to go missing from your room. Ask for an extra safe if required as they clearly have a security issue. Other than that the room and food was fine... but yeah... I'm pretty annoyed. It was the only superfast charger I owned. Not cool.

When we arrived i gave the receptionist my name and spelt it, he looked on the computer and said NO! I then provided the reference number for my booking and my reservation was found. We asked to use a wheelchair, they do not have one. The bed setee was broken so we had to pull the mattress onto the floor. Went for breakfast at 9am and food was running out. Customers kept asking staff for more food. The hotel was clean but i will not stay there again.

Exactly what you would be looking for in a hotel. Very clean room, tea making facilities, room cleaned daily, shower gel and hand soap, comfortable bed, and very quite through the night. Minimum staffing levels throughout but they were brilliant..did not interfere with any service requirements as they were multi tasking. Very friendly staff who always remembered their guests and what they need.

Comfortable stay, great staff, very helpful! Good breakfast, but not so good hot breakfast if you don't eat bacon and pork sausages. I had baked beans on toast, but no scrambled eggs as they didn't look good. They were the only 2 hot things I could eat as no tomatoes! 5 stars based mainly on comfort and staff!

Upon arrival I was surprised at the size of the building! Plus the foyer and bar area, there was loud music playing from a wedding no problem good atmosphere. Then things go down hill, I was given a room infested with spiders 🤮 lots of them all over the window and wall obviously that was the first thing I went to open, there's no way any cleaner touched this room and deep cleaned it as they say especially given the pandemic... Had to go back downstairs with all my suitcase and bags, given another room a few doors down after hauling my luggage back upstairs the card didn't work, so then I had to go back downstairs! So back to my room finally get in and unfortunately same things again. The window along the top has been sealed with duck tape where there would be a vent so it's quite obvious this isn't a problem they don't know about. I went back to reception and the woman could only say no one can check the room and they can't give me another! Tried to tell me it's because they have had hot weather. Clearly the place is infested and these are not your normal garden spiders they look foreign could even be Australian scary sizes and patterns on the bodies. There are splat marks in the room on walls and roof from the last victims. Do check the photos sorry if you have a phobia of spiders. To top all that off there was a fire alarm, which we were told to go outside the building for, however it was an accident by someone.
