Frederick County Hotels with Breakfast

It’s very nice and very clean

We used IHG points for a one night stay at this hotel. We have stayed at numerous Holiday Inn Express hotels, and this one was by far the worst. The lobby was messy and the floors looked dirty. We were told not to use the side door because it was not working well - which was true - it could not be locked because part of the jamb was broken off. We were given a first floor room. On opening the door, the room had an odor and the tile floor looked dirty - I wondered if the room had been cleaned. On closer inspection, the floor was chipped and stained but didn't have debris on it. The towels were fresh and the bathroom was in order, but the tub had mildew around the caulk and a large stain in the tub. There is very little lighting in these rooms - only one light by the door, lamps on the wall by the bed and one light on the desk. The next morning, my husband went to the lobby early for breakfast, which was overcooked eggs and sausage. He overheard the breakfast attendant tell another staff member that she was ”still throwing up”. I had breakfast elsewhere. When we left, there was no one at the desk to resolve credit card charges that should not have been made - the room was free on IHG points. Usually a small charge is made, then removed before checkout. We wondered if we were given a bad room because it was on points - not our experience on other stays. This hotel is in poor repair, not very clean and understaffed.

Overall very positive - quiet and clean with a friendly staff. Negatives: - holiday inn express (corporate) should give up on the plastic fake cheese omelettes at breakfast - they are bad. The rest of the breakfast is pretty good, though. - although advertised as smoke free our floor reeked of cigarette smoke and Febreze. Even the room cleaning crew was complaining about the smell. I realize it is not the hotel’s fault if someone smokes in their room.

This is an easy review to write. First , it's a condensation of two stays. One in December 2022 and the second in February 2023. The first stay was on an AAA discounted rate. The second was on my Choice Privleges points. This was my third time using Choice Privleges points. And, by far the best experience. My December stay found the lobby very nicely decorated for Christmas. Much appreciated. Even with the fake electric fireplace! On both occasions, I was promptly greeted and checked in. Both stays were on the third floor, facing the front of the building. (Odd numbers face that side with even numbers facing the rear. And, the rear faces I-81! Beware!) Each time, my suite was comfortable and well-furnished. Despite being winter in Virginia hill country, the heating was up to the task. Sleep quality was excellent. My December stay found me checking-out into a snowstorm! While the lot was untreated, it was manageable as I have 4X4 with snow tires on all four wheels. None of the VDOT/City streets or roads were treated -let alone plowed- for that matter. Each checkout was friendly and efficient. They seem to have good people here. The rate I was charged in December was a good value. The breakfasts were a standout in terms of qiuality. The only gripe I have is that they seem to be consistent with link sausage and scrambled eggs on Thursdays. Any chance of a change as there are those of us who have to travel on the same days of the week? Having the option of Choice Hotels' ”institutional” sausage gravy would also make for a nice option. Because of having family in the area, I travel frequently to Winchester. This hotel is now my first choce. (OK, bad pun! But, my last stay at what was my first choice was a disaster. And, it is a ”Choice” property.) There are no photos with ths review because there was nothing out of the way to photograph. And, this place is really no different from so many of the better Comfort Inn and Suites locations I've stayed at. The Choice Privliges preferred parking is set-up a bit strangely with a couple of ”head-in” spaces down the sidewalk from the lobby enrtrance, and two parallel spaces to the left of the entrance. In fact, there are ”public” spaces that are nearer to the entrance, if you can snag one of those. Summary: Strongest possible recommend.

The Holiday Inn - Winchester SE-Historic Gateway turned out to be a perfect and surprising sweet stopover. It was a long day's drive to get there but Marie greeted us with a big smile and wholeheartedly welcomed our kitty as well. :) It was a very nice Holiday Inn and the room was clean and relaxing. Breakfast was the ”icing on the cake” and it was because of Brandy who was our server. A terrific disposition and jovial personality on an early Monday morning. The food was delicious, as well. Clearly - an overall nice stay at this hotel and we highly recommend it.

The stay occurred over the Memorial Day weekend. I can't say enough about the lady that fixes the breakfast. It is amazing to see her detail to cleanliness and presentation, plus, she makes breakfast that is out of this world. I hope they never lose her! Saturday's breakfast was real scrabbled eggs, bacon and potatoes. Sunday's was scrabbled eggs, sausage, homemade biscuits and sausage gravy! Amazing! Monday, Memorial Day, was scrabbled eggs, rosemary potatoes (which were delicious), and bacon. I would pay to eat the breakfast she puts out. The coffee was hot, the juice bar was always full, and the waffle irons were ready for anyone who wanted a waffle. Thank you for paying attention to all those details. The hotel was clean and quiet!

It was a very nice stay, Clean with very nice employees and excellent customer service

The front desk employee was very polite & welcomed us immediately and got us checked in quickly. Hotel nice clean and quiet. The amenities were amazing especially our room with the jacuZzi tub. Breakfast was even delicious and fulfilling. We had an amazing time and definitely would come back to stay.
