  • Everything was perfect, nothing stood out more than another.
  • We liked it all.

“We were on our way to San Francisco and this was a good stopping point for over night. The room was very comfortable and the bed made for a good night sleep. A bonus was a Mexican food restaurant within walking distance.”

  • Room was clean and comfortable.

“The room was clean and comfortable, especially the fluffy soft towels that smelled of fabric softener rather than bleach. The hotel and room was nicely decorated. We enjoyed the bar downstairs and especially the Starbucks located in the lobby.”

  • Decor.
  • The
    AC was noisy. Train close by, noisy. The toilet was making a loud obnoxious noise all night long.

“Needed air conditioning to be better in the lobby areas. It was still hot in the lobby. Enjoyed my stay despite the few problems.”

  • Plenty of free parking. Good location near convention center
  • The decor may be a little "last year" but no big -- I'd come back in a heart beat!

“Great front desk service-- attentive folks. Clean, well maintained overall. Good bar! Safe location.”

  • One employee went out of her way to help.
  • One employee was not helpful.

“The hotel was easily located next to the convention center and check in was fast. A key was needed to access the elevator and another guest showed us a trick to get it to work. The room was inviting and the bed filled with pillows of varying sizes/shapes. The pool was located outside and at a warm temperature, although the jacuzzi was closed at our visit. There was a very affordable Mexican buffet with the basics in the lounge which provided dinner without leaving the hotel.”

“This hotel is being remodeled so the room was very clean and updated. The radio alarm clock did not work in the room. There is noise from construction even in the early evening hours not just during the daytime hours.”

“Very nice hotel. The lobby, restaurant and bar areas were under remodeling. They did a good job under the circumstances. My rating would have been higher in several categories if the construction were finished. Overall, a nice hotel and will be better in the future.”

  • It is conveniently located in the heart of Bakersfield.
  • It is in Bakersfield.

“Bakersfield is not a tourist town in California. People stay there not for a vacation but because of a business trip or some sports tournament of their children. The Holiday Inn is very much in the center of Bakersfield, so that you can reach destinations from there easily. However, Bakersfield is also quite stretched out. The rooms have a flat screen TV, the beds are comfortable, and there is modern lighting installed. Internet access is free, which is unusual these days. The food in the restaurant is quite good, given that it is just attached to the hotel.”
