Holiday Inn Parramatta by IHG

I changed from another hotel due to parking not being suitable for my vehicle so I wasn't expecting to be so pleasantly surprised. Not only was the parking easy it was 2.1m, high enough for my 4WD. The reception area was immaculate and staff friendly. The room ( a twin room) was larger than expected as was the bathroom. Water was hot, shower over the bath, plenty of shampoo etc. 2 small hiccups, 1. the air con was too warm and we couldn't adjust it and the twin beds were pushed together. As this for myself and my adult daughter not such a big deal but of you were sharing with a friend, it was a bit "cosy" sleeping right next to them. Breakfast buffet was included and was very good with usual assortment of hot and cold offerings. It was an easy walk to Westfield and nearby restaurants, a pub with bistro is across the road. We just had 1 night for work related visit but would definitely stay here again if the occasion arose.

I absolutely love staying at the Holiday Inn. The staff in all areas are beyond awesome. They all listen, are friendly and so caring. Staff go above and beyond to provide expecting and professional customer service. The room was so clean and I had no complaints at all! As a female travelling alone I always feel so safe staying at the hotel, staff will smile and check all is ok, especially in the evening and early mornings.the hotel is a brief walk from the station, Harris Park and Parramatta shopping. The route is safe to walk alone.

Second time I stayed within a couple of weeks, cannot thank the staff enough, they were so friendly and helpful. Irene remembered my name from the previous week and had me checked in quickly, as I arrived late at night and needed to eat something, Mary suggested a couple of places that should be open, a restaurant and a food truck, two minutes walk from the hotel. After dropping my bags in my room walked to the Nepalese restaurant and ate. Checking out the next morning, I think the Gentleman’s name was Galib, also very friendly. The location is great, I had stayed four nights the previous week, a ten minute walk to Parramatta Westfield and about 10-15 minutes walk to the various restaurants in Harris Park, depending on which direction you take, I liked the walk that crossed over the rail line at Harris Park Station as that took you almost straight to the restaurant area. Wish I could have stayed longer. The parking was $20 per night, got to park undercover every night during my two stays, so even though it was hot weather, the car was much cooler.

Great location, clean & well maintained hotel. Quiet & felt safe. Located 5 minute walk to the train station & also to the big Westfield Shopping Centre. Short train to Accor Stadium. We were in Sydney for the Taylor Swift concert at the Accor Stadium & this hotel was the perfect location. The lobby was decorated in Taylor Swift style & they were playing her music which was a great touch! So nice to arrive to this!

Stay is comfortable, rooms are newly renovated. No much nearby shops as it is surrounded by all automobile companies. location is walkable (700m) to Harris park train station and you can go to central station in 30min. You can find lot of Indian restaurants, after crossing the Harris park train station. No free parking and need to pay $20/day for hotel residents. Otherwise $30 per entry.
