Stayed here for two nights in September 2024. The room was clean and very comfortable. The hotel and grounds in general were very nice. The breakfast was the best free/included breakfast I've had at a hotel in recent memory. The staff was waiting to clear tables and keep the food stocked - they really deserve a shout-out for a very good morning experience. Check in and out was pleasant.Location is relatively close to the train station, about 5-7 minute walk. The central part of town with a selection of restaurants is a little bit of a walk - about 20 minutes. Touristy areas like the Schloss is further. A local train runs right by the hotel so there are options instead of walking. The buildings across the street are lived in but have some graffiti on them, but the area seemed fine as far as safety.

Hotel is clean and rooms are spacious. It is also nice and quiet for sleeping. We had a 10-15 minute walk to find a restaurant. But would recommend for an overnight stay when passing through the area.

Since I was returning from Saarbrucken by plane with my family, I had to stay one night. While searching for a place to stay, I saw the Holiday Inn hotel and since I trusted the brand, I made a reservation without hesitation. Frankly, the hotel was as I expected. Kind staff, a clean, new and spacious room, a location close to the city center, a pleasant breakfast. It takes 10 minutes to reach the city center by walking from the hotel. Very close to the train station, bus and tram stops. I chose to use the bus to go to the airport and it was very easy to reach the stop within walking distance of the hotel. I don't know when I will come to Sarrbrücken again, but if I do, my accommodation choice will be the same.

Very good hotel. Very nice and helpful staff. Speaks English. Unfortunately, there is a small selection for breakfast. The advantage is that you can take it away. I recommend it for business and private trips.

Reasons why I can recommend the Holiday Inn Express in Saarbrücken:It is very centrally located, right next to a streetcar line that passes in front of the hotel. Of course, this leads to higher noise pollution if you have rooms in this direction. We had a room facing a side street. The hotel offers plenty of paid parking spaces. These cost € 5,- / day or if you are an IHG member, € 3,- / day. The double room is large enough and equipped with quiet air conditioning. The breakfast is good because there are even American pancakes with maple syrup. The rooms are only cleaned on request, which I personally find very good. If you need anything, just let reception know. The staff are friendly and helpful and try to please everyone, especially in the dining room.What you should bear in mind:I personally don't like carpeting in the hotel room. The scrambled eggs at breakfast don't taste like eggs. It seems to be made from liquid egg. When the breakfast room is busy at the weekend, you sometimes have to wait for a free seat. We also often had to tell the staff that the milk was empty, for example, or that there were no more pancakes.Conclusion:I can recommend the hotel to anyone who likes to stay close to the center and travel by car or train. We will definitely book this hotel again for our next stay in Saarbrücken.

We lost our wallet in the hotel parking lot and somebody found it and reported it to the hotel 2 hours after we left. They told him they have never seen us (even though they saw the ID card in the wallet), didn’t take the man’s number or name just in case, and didn’t even bother to check their database for our name. When we came back they said they will give him our number when he asks for us again, we explained that we don’t think he’ll come back and ask twice and then we asked if we could leave a piece of paper at the front desk that states “missing wallet please contact…”. They didn’t let us because it’s not policy and they said he’d come back, obviously he didn’t. The staff are incompetent, indifferent, and they simply do not have basic life skills.P.S: we don’t blame the nice young woman (if you’re reading this)Edit response: the name on the id is the same name that we checked in with (it wasn’t mine)

We used this hotel twice in December as an overnight stop on our way to and back from Austria. The hotel was relatively easy to find through the one-way traffic system and tramlines. Car parking was available at a cost.  …

The hotel is good located. Within 5 - 10 minutes of food , you reach the first restaurants, and in 20 minutes, you're at the main place.Staff at the front desk is very friendly as well as all the staff in the house. You hear a friendly good morning at breakfast, and service is fine. Breakfast is straight, but everything is fresh and tasty.Rooms are modern, and I slept very well. Unfortunately, there is no fridge in the room, but I think this is part of the Holiday Inn Express concepts.Overall, I'm enjoying the stay and feeling good in this hotel. The young and friendly staff make a big difference to outer hotels.

I stayed here one night and this was by far the cleanest hotel i've been to! I was really surprised based on my experiences with Holiday Inn previously, but this was a welcome surprise! I liked that breakfast was included and there was a large choice too. I wouldn't hesitate in staying here again if I returned.

Very fresh, great staff, all areas including the room are in superb condition (I think the whole place has just been refurbished) staff world class, nice bar, breakfast (for mid/entry level place) very good. Standard of cleanliness perfect....all in all a well managed hotel....great oarking. Perfect for a few nights as a business stop over......very very good....IHG auditors I advocate using this place as a brand bench mark
