The Holiday Inn Express Hilton Head Island is on Tanglewood Drive near the south end of the island, close to Coligny Beach and Coligny Plaza. Of the chain hotels on Hilton Head, this is the one where the beach is a walk of a few minutes rather than a drive. Some searchers call it the Holiday Inn Express in Hilton Head or the Hilton Head Holiday Inn Express; it is the same hotel.

It suits families and couples who want a walkable beach and restaurants without a resort price. For other options, see our Hilton Head hotels page.

What guests say

Guests choose it for the location: a few minutes’ walk to the beach, with restaurants and parks close by, plus a pool and helpful staff. Breakfast is called fine rather than special. The recurring gripes are rooms that show their age, noise through the walls, and a nightly parking charge some guests felt was steep for an open lot.

Breakfast, Pool and Rooms

It is a modern, casual hotel with an outdoor pool, a gym and a complimentary breakfast buffet. Guests praise the location, the pool and the friendly staff; some find the rooms worn in places or the breakfast just average.

Walking to the Beach

Coligny Beach is a walk of a few minutes from the hotel, and Coligny Plaza and its restaurants are close by. See our Coligny Beach Park guide for parking, facilities and lifeguard details.

Parking Costs Extra

Parking is charged by the night, and both reviewers and travel sites mention it. Add it to your budget, or ask the hotel whether it can be folded into the room rate.

Who It Suits

Choose it for a walkable beach, restaurants nearby and a free breakfast at a mid-range brand. If you would rather have a kitchen, look at a vacation rental.
