The Holiday Inn Express in Branford is comfortable and clean, with a very kind and helpful staff. Jen in particular was a huge help by letting us check in early when we were still exhausted from our flight. I've stayed here twice now and couldn't be happier with the service and comfort they offer, and in a great Branford location!

Our recent stay was wonderful. However there was one day where the breakfast was an issue. It was only 8:30 am and the eggs had run out. When my husband asked if more eggs were coming he was told there were no more eggs that day. He also overheard her tell another man the same thing. Things were rectified by the regional manager who happened to be there that day.

This hotel would have been a fine hotel at 100 a night. I stayed during a busy event and it went up to 250 a night and was definitely not updated and nice enough to pay that.

Out of stater visiting for a funeral service. I was pleasantly surprised with the last minute booking.
The female at the front desk rearranged the room assignment so that my 90 year old father was in an adjoining room. The room was very clean which is number one in my book. Early breakfast was nice.
Yes I would stay here again.
