We stayed just one night during our trip from Orange County to Walnut Creek for a basketball tournament at Saint Mary’s in Moraga, and everything was excellent. The front desk staff was very kind and welcoming, and the housekeeping team was just as friendly and helpful. Great service all around—I definitely recommend staying here!

The whole staff is awesome. I will be going back and staying another week as I have another slot located with you guys to stay again. The entire staff, the janitors, the security, the rooms, the facilities and the breakfast is amazing! Everybody was so kind and so thoughtful! They even upgraded our room closer to the front of the lobby for easy access for my husband into a handicap room with his a hard time walking. So yes everything went super fantastic thank you Holiday Inn Express Walnut Creek we'll see you again on August 3rd!

Access off & on I-680 was great. Being on the ground floor, foot traffic and furniture movement in room above was noticeable, especially at 4 AM. For us senior folks, toilets with a higher seat level would be appreciated. The fruit droppings on the exterior walkways ought to be cleaned up. They are a hazard & mess to walk through. The Staff was great, friendly and efficient.
