Holiday Inn Express Silver City

This hotel was clean, had all you really need for an overnight, but it’s really run down. I know they are planning renovations, which look long overdue. Just dingy and old. Breakfast was the usual. Unfortunately, the pool was closed as they were waiting on City inspections. Not the hotels fault. Staff were pleasant and helpful.

This is a winner. Clean and comfy and SAFE. Breakfast was tasty and the choice selection was good. Front desk personnel were helpful and friendly. Our room was superior. Two queens and a pull out sofa. Room very large and accommodating. Great night sleep. Only negative was the parking lot was very dark. Stay here for a comfy and quiet visit. You wont be disappointed. .

Excellent place to stay in Silver City. We had stayed there a number of years ago, then recently twice in a month. Excellent room, great breakfast that is served at 5:30, which is great for our schedule. The room is clean, and everyone working there is very friendly and pleasant

This is an older property that could use a major renovation. Our toilet had some nasty marks in it, and the room was rather dark. That said, it was otherwise well cleaned and comfy. The location is good, and the front desk was super friendly and service minded.

We recently stayed here for one night. The hotel was okay. It is NOT a new hotel. I would estimate it is 20-30 years old. It is nowhere near downtown Silver City.. It is, however, just off the main road into town. It would have helped our return at night, if its sign had been working. It wasn't. The room was okay. Not great but not bad either. Breakfast was only modestly edible. Toast for me, from the somewhat sad offerings. OJ, in separate containers, was good. Coffee was pretty good, too. For us, we wanted a hotel but, instead, we got a hotel AND a kennel. A LARGE dog on our floor started howling at the moon from about 5:00 pm onward, for maybe 3hours. I assume its owner(s) had gone to dinner and left their dog behind. Huh?! Great for them, maybe, but for the rest of us paying to stay at a HOTEL? No, we got to feel the effects of the hotel owner deciding to turn its hotel into a part-time kennel. And our room was merely on the same floor - not next to - the dog. But no one could miss that howl.

We stayed here one night while we visited Silver City. The front desk staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was comfortable and clean. The down side was the lack of hot water…it never got above warm. We did not partake of the breakfast…too crowded!

Front desk rarely answers phone when trying to book our group. Canceled 24 rooms 2 weeks before we were to arrive. Hot water heater? You have 2 weeks to figure it out. Seems they don’t want the business. There are other hotels that are happy to have our business.

Excellent location if you're planning to hike the Gila Cliff Dwellings. It's not near the downtown area but very clean and quiet. Very nice lobby. There are elevators should you have a room on the second floor. Very clean room, plenty of hot water for showering and a comfortable bed. Desk clerk very welcoming upon arrival. Nice breakfast area with hot food selections to start off your morning. I would recommend staying if you're planning on hiking the next day to the dwellings.There is a pool but due to the time of year it was closed.

POSITIVES • Breakfast coffee good • Bed was comfortable • Staff were pleasant and helpful • Close to Walmart – which has a gas station NEGATIVES • A dated property that is well used. • Shower went cold while I was using it both mornings I was there. My shower was immediately ended due to cold water. • Limited selection of food at breakfast: no cinnamon buns and only 2 oranges (both hard & old – Walmart’s oranges are far better). • Away from the town center, restaurants and attractions • Sound proofing from room above was poor – every foot step could be heard clearly. • Internet connection dropped approximately every 20 minutes and required manual re-connection – gets very irritating • A half-eaten slice of cake (from a previous guest) was in the fridge when I checked-in. • Room carpet dark & dated. CONCLUSION Silver City needs a better hotel(s). Lack of competition is the route of the problem – especially from higher-end properties. This Holiday Inn is well overdue for a make-over and the lack of choice from the chains means that it can ignore the need to up-date.
