Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Birmingham-Irondale(East), an IHG Hotel

Room was very clean, but the premises could have used more attention in public areas (like the elevator that had food spills for the whole stay. Breakfast was so-so, cheap carb stuff but reasonable eggs/meat options also. Air conditioning afforded minimal control-- I'd worry about being there in very hot weather. Desk clerk was very pleasant and she went out of her way to help me get to the airport and find a local bakery.

The location is ok, it’s not too far from Downtown or the highway. They are doing construction on the building so parking was limited and it was very noisy that morning. When we checked in they gave us a room that was not ready, then gave us another room. It was not the cleanest. The walls are paper thin, I heard every door slam throughout the night. I also killed a roach in the bathroom. It was not the best experience, but was ok for a last minute booking.

We are traveling back home and stopped here for the night. It was worth every penny. Diamond was so friendly and helpful and the room was clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Breakfast was fantastic! Will stay here again as it’s halfway between our usual Florida destination!

Hotel is currently undergoing major renovation. Large areas of parking being used by equipment and supplies. Guest reception is set up on a picnic table. There were no hangers or handsoap in the room. The ice makers and vending machines have not been installed yet. None of the local channels on TV were operational (CBS, NBC, ABC). There were NO restaurants close by, only fast food type establishments (and those were over a mile away). Overall this place has potential, but IMO, not yet ready to host guests due to the undergoing renovations.

The hotel itself sits up on a windy hill so if you have an RV like we did it makes it pretty tricky however not too bad. The entire building is under remodel and construction however the room was very nice! Literally just what we needed after traveling so much! Bathroom and shower was great! They had everything we needed honestly the cleanliness and comfort of the room was top tier! Easy to get around and felt very safe! Staff was excellent!

We stayed at the hotel since we had an early flight out of Birmingham. Nice location, quiet, and comfortable.

The hotel was nice, desk clerks polite and professional. Not a lot to visit unless you travel

The property was nice with the exception of the room which had some water damage on the ceiling in the bathroom and the main area. The front desk manager was awesome and very helpful. It was a little odd that they allowed the construction workers who were staying there to tailgate outside in the parking lot.

Sorry to rate this place bad but i paid for my room over 2 weeks in advance and when i got there, they said they didnt have any rooms available? And they gave me a cancellation number. Now i have to figure out how to get my refund through orbitz, who thinks i just stayed there. They dont notify orbitz, i guess? Also the parking lot wasnt even half full so im not sure how they were out of rooms but whatever... it sucked i had to pay another $170 to stay at the hampton next door. But that place was nice!

We arrived at the hotel and I had booked a suite in the 3 rd floor . Upon our arrival we were informed the elevators were broken which meant we were going to have to carry our luggage up 3 flights of stairs ..I downgraded our room to a reg king which is as on the second floor my husband had a bad ankle and carrying luggage up stairs was not ideal I had to get a room on the second floor avoid ..the TV in the room did not work we were not comped a discount for the inconvenience ..I would not recommend this hotel .
