Holiday Inn Roanoke – Valley View

Great hotel… passing through on a move from PA to NC with a German Shepherd. Very accommodating, great rates, nice rooms, great setup with bar, indoor pool, outdoor pool, horse shoe pits, and sand volleyball court… pretty damn nice if ya ask me

Super accommodating. Big dogs welcome. Great night sleep. Good room service food. Breakfast buffet was excellent. Much more than what we expected. Linda at the bar was delightful and sweet and we enjoyed talking to her practically all night. Kept the drinks and the laughs coming. Stevie Ray will cook you up whatever your heart desires– these are just a few of the warm wonderful people we met at this hotel. Will definitely be staying here when I pass through Roanoke again !

We visited for a local convention at the Bergland Center July 2 – 5, 2015.
Very clean rooms and hallway… check in was smooth. Indoor/​outdoor pool and spa were on point.
Good sized fridge and microwave on rooms. Beds had nice, fluffy pillows and were comfortable enough. Free coffee in lobby for hubby was great, too!

Clean, friendly staff, room was huge, fridge & micro in room. Free wifi was great. No free breakfast. Location super easy off highway plus convenient to downtown. Traveled with pet, pet fee $ 25 was decent, first floor room by the door was easy to get in and out with a dog. Hotel was pretty quiet. Had good walking area outside for the dog.

This was not my first choice but the Holiday Inn at Tanglewood was full.
1^st — WARNING. The hot water in the rooms is not only hot but scalding HOT. I’m concerned for children who could be easily burned from the water. This is both the sinks and the showers.
The Good – Typical Holiday Inn rooms. Gives you what you need and expect from a room. Extra cable channels are a plus. Front desk very pleasant and gave me a rundown of where everything is located. PET FRIENDLY.
The Bad-​You do not want to get an inside room. TOO MUCH NOISE from the pool and restaurant. Lesson learned. The music playing outside the hotel lobby is too loud.
The Ugly-​In my reservation request I ALWAYS ask not to be near the elevator or vending machines. Also I prefer a high room to keep watch to make sure the city is safe. High room-​check. HOWEVER the room was next to the elevator and vending machines-​MAJOR FAIL.
The Bottom Line-​Would I go back? Only if the Tanglewood location is full. I now know enough about this location to make sure that my requests are made known to the staff and are fulfilled.

Holiday Inn chain with a great staff. Front desk hosts went above and beyond to help my party cancel reservations as needed for those additional folks that were not going to meet up with us. Even though we went past the advertised deadline for cancellations without being charged; each one we needed to cancel was waived. And they were very accomodating in ensuring our room preferences were met. Great experience. Fresh coffee in the lobby ²⁴⁄₇. An outdoor pool/​indoor pool and hot tub available for your pleasure as well. Rooms are neat with flat screen T. V’s, small fridge and microwave. Nice place to relax.

Nicest Holiday Inn I’ve ever been to. I’m a Platinum member with Marriott, but stayed here for a friends party. Very impressed!

Stayed here because they allow pets with a non refundable pet fee of $ 25. They initially put us on the second floor and it reeked like cigarettes. Immediately I called the front desk and they changed our room to the fourth floor and it was nice. Expensive menu at their restaurant but that’s standard.

Make sure you ask for a room with an outside view, otherwise you will be slightly above the eating area with no natural light, hoping you don’t accidentally leave the drapes open.
Weird smell
They don’t serve lunch
Convenient location though

Nice enough…, In need of major renovations!!! Has a weird smell in hallway:(
But a decent gym

The location of this hotel is very conveniant to I-​581 and is located just at the intersection of the Burlington Coat Factory and the new Zaxby’s.
Parking and wi-​fi are free and they take pets. Which is a plus since most decent hotels in Roanoke won’t. Excuse me but I have been around enough dirty nasty little kids to know that most of them are far nastier than my English bulldog. Sure he drools and sometimes smells like white cheddar popcorn, but I wipe his face and keep him clean and he isn’t spilling cool aid on the carpet or wiping boogers on the walls. Gross…
Anyway, I digress…
There is plenty of parking in an ample parking lot and the hotel has a neat design where a lot of the rooms are inward facing… meaning that the hotel basically has two wings with the check-​in area, pool, and restaurant in an indoor space between the two. Most of the rooms on the inward side face this area instead of to the outside where the parking lot and interstate are. This did make the room seem much quieter and insulated and that was a plus.
They have a pet potty area with a waste disposal trash can and little poopie bags so I thought that was pretty nice. They seem to take it seriously that they allow pets here and have gone out of their way to cater to those clients. A smart move if you ask me.
The breakfast was included with the room I paid for so I had breakfast here one morning. They stop serving it pretty early during the week, 0930, but on weekends it is served until 1100. They had your standard buffet fare, eggs, bacon, potatoes, yogurt, oatmeal, bagels, cereal, etc. But it wasn’t bad for the price.
The room was fairly large and clean, it seemed decently insulated for noise control and the bathroom area featured two sinks — one just outside the actual bathroom area where the toilet and shower were located where there was a second sink. I like this so I could do my makeup at the first sink not located inside the bathroom.
The bed was comfortable and had a ton of fluffy pillows on it. Also a plus as I like about 8 pillows on my bed at home.
There was a desk and a little sofa area with a table as well as a mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker.
My major complaint about this stay is that the hotel was by no means booked solid and they put a LARGE party of about 25 people spanning about 8 different rooms all around me. I had the two rooms across from me, both on either side of me and the two down the hall next to the elevator full of this bus group of people. They left their doors open with the little lock thing sticking out so it won’t shut all the way and walked in and out of each other’s rooms all night with doors slamming. It was terrible. The first night was nice and peaceful but the second was loud as they did this until around 2am. I understand they probably want to keep everyone on the same floor for cleaning purposes but it was very ridiculous to move 25 people around one lady and her dog. Obviously I didn’t want to be in the very middle of that shit. I ended up checking out a day early and driving home a day earlier than planned so I could enjoy some peace. They did take that night’s charge off the room when they asked why I was leaving and I told them.
Not a terrible stay and actually a pretty nice hotel.

3 stars because it was all right. The smell in the elevators was pretty overwhelming. It was nice in the atrium area. Welcoming beds since we had been driving from TX to VA. Closest and decently priced hotel that I could trust the name of nearest to Farmville, VA. They have beautiful trees in the parking area. Probably would come here again should we be going in that area again.

Great hotel! Comfortable, quiet room; pet friendly, great restaurant on site, indoor/​outdoor pool & hot tub, nice grounds. Very friendly accommodating staff. I will stay here again.

Diamond in the rough. Really nice hotel at great rates. Good food, active professional bar crowd, decent breakfast, etc.
