This place is great for an overnight stay before a flight (free parking/airport shuttle and airport parking). Staff is great -- helpful & friendly. Hotel is safe & very clean. This hotel is a solid 2 1/2 mainly due to 1) No Free Breakfast 2) Rooms need updated - tv's.

The Holiday Inn at Renton was quite familiar from former visits. Yet some things need really an upgrade. This was the first hotel room during our trip which had no fridge. All other rooms had one, no matter they were of Holiday Express Hotels. The tv was old fashioned, the first one which was not a flatscreen. We expected some... More

This was one of the few hotels I could find that would keep our car for as long as we needed (more than a week). It's a pretty basic hotel with nothing fancy. It actually should be slated for reno's as it was dated however it was clean, in a safe area and not outrageously expensive. The best part is... More

Thank you for your review. You are correct when you say this is a great place to park your car and take our hotel shuttle. We have generous parking and many people enjoy staying with us the night before they fly out as it helps reduce the stress of flying. Thanks for your review. More

I was expecting a 3-star hotel. It's very much like 2-star I stayed elsewhere. Worse than that, me and my family were put in a room that has a damaged door - the latch was poorly installed, and the door close with a big gap. In the room, the bathroom's shower flow was weak enough that can be described as... More

Thank you for taking the time in writing your review. Its important that we understand the feelings of our guests. It sounds like there were a few problems that you encountered and with a 46 year old hotel, we on occasion run into difficulties. I like to think we are adept and solving problems and switching rooms is an option... More

I bid about $70 on Priceline for this hotel. That's not a super deal, but things were pretty booked up that night. This hotel is older, not memorable in any way, but it was clean and had many good qualities. The free wifi was great. There is a Starbucks a few minutes' walk away which is my choice for breakfast...

This is a typical older holiday Inn property.. The staff does the best they can with what they have to work with. This hotel is located just off of I-5 in the Renton by the valley freeway. I stayed here on business and was my fourth time at this property...It's pretty much the same. All other trips I have stayed... More

As far as service goes this was a great hotel. Staff very friendly and attentive. Thanks for the great stay and dinner suggestions! Please realize that if you decide to stay here this is an older facility. The walls are paper thin and you will hear everything in the rooms around you. There were rather large gaps around the door... More

As a current priority club gold member, other priority club members will know how many nights at Holiday Inn this represents. Of all the Holiday Inn's I have stayed, the Holiday Inn located in Renton Washington in my opinion is a poor value. My room (353) had curtains missing off the window and no refrigerator, microwave or alarm clock. Even... More
