Great View & Decent Room
Clean and comfortable room in a great location. Our room did seem somewhat run-down—broken handle on the sliding glass door, light fixture with dangling bulb, difficult to switch from tub to shower, and running toilet. But, the staff was friendly and the location was easy to navigate and had a great view. Bonus—hotel is super turtle friendly!

Not bad
My stay was good. The water pressure was low and the fridge was not very cold and there was no adjustment. I ordered wings and they gave me the wrong sauce. But the staff was great and the hotel was clean. It was a good location and a beautiful view.

Great location helpful staff
This hotel was advertised and fit the bill. It's main calling card was the location, literally right across the street from the beach. Nothing fancy, but it foot the bill and was convenient to shopping and restaurants. The staff was very attentive and helpful as well.

Holiday Inn, Lido Key
Lido Beach has always been my favorite place to vacation. The Holiday Inn has a great location, our view was amazing and the amenities the hotel offers is everything you would ever need. The service was spot on and we did not wait for anything. Check in was not until 4p and our room was ready by 130p when we arrived. I would recommend the Holiday Inn on Lido Key to anyone!

2/10 Poor

Horrible Holiday Inn
The condition of the hotel was horrible. Black mold, broken locks, bad smell, overall disgusting. Bathtub was like walking on a waterbed and smelled horrible.

What you call “city view” is really a view of the parking lot! Wifi is hopelessly useless. Cannot open attachments. Staff very nice. Coffee maker is temperamental. Found it too much bother. Used a water heater I had with me.
