Hotel Review: Holiday Inn Express (Richmond Hill)

Had some business up in Richmond Hill last week and so we stayed at Holiday Inn Express just north of Hwy 7 just off of Leslie Street.

Across the street from the chinese plaza, Times Square, this spacious and modern hotel had a nice first impression. 

The foyer had a wide foyer traffic area and off to the side a comfy sitting area. Just behind the sitting area, they had a complimentary computer (Apple iMac) for patrons to use, right by the elevators. And even further into the hotel, still in the lobby, they have a nicely arranged lounge/sitting area that doubles turns as their breakfast area. It is very spacious and open.

The amenities were very clean and modern. Our double bed room had a very nice long headboard that stretches from one bed to the other. I like how there's lots of counter space by the television. They have a desk area near the window for any needed sit down work, but I do prefer my bed! =0)

Of course, one of the perks of staying here was the complimentary breakfast. With a good size menu, they also provide a few "hot" options such as make-it-yourself pancakes, scramble eggs and sausages.

I opted for a bagel/sausage/cream cheese trio with a side of scramble eggs and an Activia yogurt.

The service was also very pleasant and the location was convenient. 

Overall, I would rate this 4.5/5 stars
