โรงแรมใน ฟอร์ตเพียร์ซ Holiday Inn Express

The Fort Pierce West location has been a stand-out among for recent Holiday Inn Express stays. The hot breakfast expertly prepared by a nice woman named Ester. All the hotels get the same ingredients, but Esters care and timing was perfect. We can usually take or leave the Hot Breakfasts, but the food she set out rivals most restaurants like Village Inn or Cracker Barrel. The Operation manager Shiela was extremely welcoming and provided insights into best local restaurants to try out (Chuck's Seafood, Archie's Seabreeze and 12A Buoy). We enjoyed hearing about the renovation, and talking about the township's history and economy. We also caught an elevator with one of on of the Senior Handymen, Todd. He was also very warm and welcoming, and we traded even more insights on other Local Places to eat and visit. I also learned that we graduated from the same University. My wife and I are not especially outgoing folks, yet we really connected with 3 really great folks within a day of arriving. We visit this area regularly, and this will now be our go-to hotel to stay out. On other note, the parking lot is HUGE and they've done an amazing job at lighting up every corner of it. You could land a plane in it some of the sections, and it's enormous enough that a handful full of Truckers or RV's can stay without competing with the regular guest parking. In fact, I believe a number of trucking companies have cited this hotel as a preferred (perhaps exclusive) place to stay in Ft. Pierce due to the saftey and lighting conditions. The only (minor) negative point is that the entrance is too close to a stoplight to allow directly turning in if you are coming towards it from the Interstate. The obvious U-Turn (about 1 block past) is not ideal because it's connected to a Toll Road. When you have a protected left turn (to come back toward the hotel) the folks exiting the toll have a protected RIght turn... and you'll get t-boned if you are not careful. It's best to overshoot about 4 blocks and make a safer U-turn just past an overpass. It's only safe to make that u-Turn at the toll entrance if there isn't a caravan of cars coming off at 45mph. and, since you have about 50 feet to cut 3-4 lanes... it's just easiest to overshoot and come back. There are no connected parking lots to get in from any other direction. This aside, we love everything else...
