We recently stayed here to attend our son's college graduation from Cal State Northridge (CSUN). While the neighborhood was mostly industrial and in spots, run down, the hotel was clean and comfortable. The rooms had recently been renovated and they were in the process of updating the exterior with not only paint, but granite door frames, etc. The beds were... more

This Hotel was very nice. Great Location for people going to Magic Mountain or Universal Studios. The staff were very pleasant and prompt service. The rooms were great and so was the price. They offered a continental breakfast from 6:30 am - 9:00am. Were a family of 4 and we had two doubles beds which seemed more like queen size... more

This hotel is strictly average at best. There is nothing too terrible about it but nothing great about it either. I was booked into the hotel through my work so I didn't research prices in the area however this hotel seems awfully expensive compared to the many other hotels that I have stayed in. The bathrooms are the smallest I... more

This was our second stay at the Holiday Inn Van Nuys. Its well located as a first night stopover hotel if youre arriving in LAX and travelling North the next day - we were going to Mammoth. The main reasons choosing this property (apart from the Trip Advisor ratings) were distance from LAX (a relatively easy 30 min drive after... more

There is nothing in the area with rates as low as the Holiday Inn Express, even though the rates were quite a bit higher this time than they were two years ago when I first stayed there. I like it much more than the Best Western on Sepulveda, that's for sure. The HIE has a refrigerator in the room, which... more

The best thing about the Holiday Inn Express Van Nuys is that it is just a 15-20 minute drive to Hollywood and surrounding attractions like Universal City. It's a good choice if you're looking for a clean, relatively affordable place to sleep after a day of sightseeing. The complimentary breakfast was adequate and the front desk staff was friendly and... more

Overall a worn and dirty property under renovation. Specifically asked for a room on the top floor; got one on the 5th out of 7 floors; said we wanted peace & quiet, placed in a room on the side they were replacing/repairing the windows - had to close the curtains because the workman otherwise could look right in. The carpeting... more

Chose HI Express as it was the closest to where I needed to be in the SF Valley. Stayed for 4 nights. Staff friendly, check in was easy. Originally staying in room 502. This room was recently renovated with new paint, carpet, A/C unit. It had the new bedding as well. However, this room had absolutely the smallest bathroom I'd... more

The staff was super friendly and did a great job keeping the breakfast area stocked and clean. The room was cleaned each day with no problems there. I liked the small pool in back, and the fact that Denny's and Taco Bell share a parking lot next door. There's even a small Starbucks inside the Jaguar dealership 2 doors down!... more
