Located just 8 minutes from downtown Salem and Roanoke College, the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Salem offers 75 rooms including 15 suites across its smoke-free facility. This 2-star Salem hotel completed renovations of all public spaces and guest rooms in 2020, featuring modern accommodations equipped with microwaves, mini-fridges, Keurig coffee makers, and 40-inch TVs with multiple USB outlets. Each morning, guests can enjoy the complimentary Express Start Breakfast bar before relaxing in the outdoor pool and whirlpool (open May 29 to September 6) or maintaining their workout routine in the 24-hour fitness center equipped with two treadmills, an elliptical, stationary bike, and free weights. Business travelers appreciate the on-site business center with printer and copier services, complimentary wired internet access, and proximity to companies like General Electric and Carter Machinery. The property sits 9.5 miles from Roanoke and provides convenient access to Salem Civic Center, Salem Museum, and Longwood Park, all within 3-2.5 miles.

Pros

Free outdoor parking surrounds the hotel

On-site guest self-laundry facilities available

Multilingual staff speaking English, German and Hindi

Pet-friendly accommodations (maximum two pets per room)

Accessible features including ADA-compliant elevators and visual alarms

Cons

34 miles from Virginia Tech and 37 miles from Radford University

Outdoor pool only operational seasonally (May 29 to September 6)

“A stay here seems a mixed bag, with reports of cleanliness issues countered by a friendly front desk. While the breakfast has drawn praise, cheese-related limitations may frustrate some. Requests for room proximity are often honored, suggesting an effort to accommodate families.”
