Holiday Inn Express & Suites Shelbyville
"The 3.8 I-74 Exit 113 IHG pool hotel — 4.4 cleanliness, road-trip layover pick with paper-thin walls flag."
About The Hotel
Holiday Inn Express & Suites Shelbyville is a 3.8-rated (155 reviews) IHG pool hotel at 38 W Rampart Street on I-74 Exit 113. Subratings run 4.4 cleanliness, 3.9 location, 4.2 rooms, 4.1 service, 3.9 sleep quality and 4.1 value — strong on cleanliness, rooms and value. Amenities include free parking, WiFi, fitness room, indoor pool, free breakfast, kids activities, pet-friendly rooms and business center. A recent 5-star called it a perfect one-night layover with clean rooms, nice bed and respectable breakfast; two mid-tier flags note paper-thin walls with highway noise and a chair-rip and falling-door bathroom issue. A 2021 credit card fraud incident (front desk wrote card number on a post-it) is on the record. Pool-and-highway IHG rather than an in-room-jacuzzi property.
What Guests Are Saying
“Very clean and tidy, nice bed, pool. Perfect place for one night layover. Breakfast was respectable. You need to drive to eat anywhere, it’s isolated.” — Poobah56, 5 stars
“The hotel was nicer than where we sat last year. Hot breakfast was good and TV was good compared to others around there. Seemed well keep and clean. Only issue is the paper thin walls! Guest in room next to came in late and was having a conversation. It woke entire family up! Tried to call desk and phones didn’t work.” — Bill P, 4 stars
“The rooms are recently remodeled, but overall the stay was okay at best. Chair had a big rip in it, bathroom door was literally falling out of the wall and bathroom lighting was poor. Biggest issue is the lack of sound insulation. Can hear almost every movement in the rooms all around and the highway noise is awful.” — Brian J, 3 stars

Guest reviews
What guests are saying about Holiday Inn Express & Suites Shelbyville.
"We have nothing negative to say about our stay. Staff was friendly from the get go, special shout-outs to Carly who checked us in and Shelia who made breakfast, even noting that we didn't eat pork, so made special omelettes. I saw staff throughly cleaning frequently. For once, a hotel pool that said heated was actually comfortably heated! I love that they had a water filling station, coffee readily available. Breakfast was very substantial. They did everything they could to make our stay comfortable and pleasant. Nothing but positive."

View on Google"Best beds ever ! I slept great in my bed and the service was great in my opinion. All of our room was pretty good accept the bathroom. The shower has chipping and cracks on and around the bottom of the shower. Plus the door didn’t lock. Without those minor things I would give it a 5 star."
