A warm welcome and cool pool..
Guests often describe the front desk staff and managers as friendly, accommodating, and professional. Many give the complimentary breakfast high marks for variety and presentation, and enjoy snacking on the fresh baked cookies in the lobby. The pool area is widely described as inviting and "pretty", ringed by palm trees and lounge chairs.

Clean, comfortable, pet friendly rooms
Pets are welcome at the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Bonita Springs, and many appreciate the complimentary Milkbones at the front desk. Their human friends generally describe the rooms as clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Many guests also report a great night's sleep and a hot shower with excellent water pressure.
positive:
Close to the beach..
Guests love that the hotel offers a five-minute drive to the beautiful Bonita Beach Park. There is a CVS and a few restaurants within walking distance, with many more shopping and dining options within a short drive. Drivers note that the hotel is very convenient to US 41 and just a few miles from I-75.

A much-needed renovation..
An older property, the hotel is undergoing an extensive interior renovation in 2015, and by many accounts, the rooms are very much in need of the new furnishings, carpets, and paint. Guests will also be happy to learn that mini fridges will also be added to all guest rooms as part of the new look.
negative:
Thumbs down from fit travelers..
Several guests have noted that there is no fitness room, nor complimentary access to a local gym. Some have also found the pool area in need of greater maintenance, or else too chilly for an enjoyable swim.
negative:
The breakfast crowd..
While many guests enjoy the complimentary breakfast, some wish for greater day-to-day variety and a larger dining area.
