After reading the reviews on the other options of staying in a hotel near Piarco Int'l Airport, I was happy when I found that a new Holiday Inn had opened right near the airport.
What a great experience it has been. A free complimentary shuttle to and from the airport, Trincity mall, and Muscovado restaurant. The shuttle runs from 4 am so for those who have an early start to the day, have no fear!
The rooms all have a wonderful freshness to them, complete with wireless internet, 2 phones (1 being cordless!) flat screen tv, and a wonderful bathroom with contemporary fixtures and style and flair.
Although I had to wait about 1.5 hours for my room to be ready since my flight arrived at 6 am and check-in isn't until 2 pm, I was able to sit in their wonderful breakfast lounge and take full advantage of their complimentary breakfast and again wireless internet while they quickly tried to clean a room for me.
Overall, a wonderful and pleasant experience and I'm sure they will continue to have lots of business as those who were forced to stay at the other Airport hotels will now have a great place to stay with no worries.
One word of advice, when arriving at the airport, don't let the taxi drivers take advantage of you. They were going to charge me $15 US to the hotel which is not worth it especially when there is a free shuttle! The shuttle drives by but I would advise calling the hotel to ask them to send it so that you don't miss it!
Enjoy!!!
