Was pleasantly surprised. Very clean, eat and comfortable lobby seating and breakfast area. Breakfast included many options. Room was very clean and looked as if upgraded and maintained well. Bed was comfy. We were in a room on the side of the highway but not too loud. The 110 Grill across the parking lot was wonderful too!

Family of 3 on college tour

We were on a college tour with our son and checked in after 8pm. The hotel was very clean. The employees were very friendly. Our room was a little warm and we could not turn on the air or adjust the air quality at all. I know this is a preference thing, but I have a bad back and the beds were waaay too soft. Nice amenities in the room. We were near the elevator and the walls are super thin so we had a lot of noise but are sound sleepers so that was ok for us but maybe not others. Breakfast was delicious - super friendly staff there too. Check in and out was very easy and no issues.

The location, in particular, was excellent for our needs. It’s located in the cut, close to the major highways, and it was quieter than I expected it to be. Upon arrival, the young lady at the front desk was super friendly, helpful and built rapport with me right away. The hotel was clean throughout and easy to navigate through to find the room. The room itself was immaculate with all the necessities already provided within, and the bed was comfortable. The complimentary breakfast available in the morning was excellent, providing options such as pancakes, turkey sausages, pork sausages, eggs, omelets, cereals, breads, yogurts, and fresh fruits. Would definitely return! Thank you for a seamless stay, IHG!!!!

⸻ 5 Stars - A Wonderful Stay! We had an excellent day at the Chelmsford Holiday Inn. Everything was spotless and beautifully maintained. The location is perfect—close to everything we needed—yet still peaceful and relaxing. It truly felt like a home away from home. We especially appreciated how welcoming they were to pets—they genuinely love dogs, which made our stay even more special.
