To be fair, I stayed here last September, but since no one has written a review yet, I have to review this place.
First off, it is literally the shortest walk ever from the train. Walk up the stairs from the train platform, walk back down on the other side, walk through half a parking lot and you are there. I made a wrong turn, and walked 2 miles to the other Holiday Inn...not the right one.
The other great thing that since you are close to the train station, you can hop on the train to Windsor. You will need to hop the train to Windsor, because there isn't a restaurant in site of this place. Windsor is the touristy side, however, if you get there late, like I did, only the grocery store is open- Waitrose. But other restaurants and shopping are there and Windsor castle. The Windsor train only goes to Windsor and Slough and back; no other places.
Also icky: at the time, no Wifi. No joke. No wifi. I only had my phone with me, and couldn't get the internet... I can't remember if they had Ethernet for your laptop, but I am thinking no. Double-check on that.
Room was clean and modern. This place is fairly new. Shower only. Bed- a little hard. Service was good.
Took a taxi to Heathrow, as you would have to take a train all the way back to London and then down to airport. No other transportation.
Good: Room newer. Front desk pleasant, a little slow when overwhelmed in the morning.
Bad: No restaurants or food nearby; no wifi, no easy way to get to the airport, minus a taxi ride read more
