Recently stayed at the Holiday Inn in Hyannis, MA (on the south coast of Cape Cod, for the uninitiated!), and seeing as there appears to be no information whatsoever on here about it, I thought I would update you with my views.
The hotel is situated out of town on one of the main highways, very close to Barnstable Airport, but you never hear/see any aircraft (they're all small props anyway). It's a short taxi ride or car journey into town.
The hotel appears to be new or newly refurbished. Staff all very helpful and provided excellent service. There is a large, but very cold
swimming pool and nice jacuzzi by the lobby/reception.
The rooms are modern and nicely furnished, but very small. Beds were comfortable, but there was no minibar. The aircon unit appeared to be broken and had to be unplugged to turn it off - it was very loud.
The bathroom was nicely decorated, but only sparse amenities were provided (one bar of soap, one shampoo and one hair conditioner). The shower was not so good - the water pressure was very high and even painful through the number and size of nozzles on the shower head (I know ... diddums
).
The bar and restaurant was excellent. A nice, but slightly limited menu, but with good options. A nice large screen showed mainly sports in the bar (White Sox v Red Sox whilst I was there). The decor was again nice.
I didn't appear to get any kind of benefit for being Platinum, although I'm not sure what should have been available - I doubt this type of hotel has many suites at all. Points posted about 3-4 days after stay and were all in order. Stay booked through PC website.
If anyone has any questions, I'd be happy to try and answer them. I'd generally recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to stay in the area, it provides a great base for day trips out to Martha's Vineyard or Nantucket.
