I had a mixed experience at Holiday Inn Express Dubai Airport. The staff were friendly and helpful, making check-in a breeze. However, I found the room to be quite basic, with some cleanliness issues and a need for refurbishment. The hotel is conveniently near the airport with a free shuttle service, although not the best location for sightseeing. Overall, it served its purpose for a short stay, but I wish there had been better communication regarding breakfast arrangements. 😕✈️

The room was pretty basic and clean, but it could use some updates. During my first room allocation, I received two single beds instead of a double but the staff promptly changed it. The cleanliness could have been better.

Great location right by the airport, which is very convenient for overnight stops. However, it’s not ideal if you're looking to explore the attractions of Dubai, as it's quite far from the main sights.

Breakfast offered a limited selection and didn't quite meet my expectations for a hot meal. Despite this, the dining area was pleasant and well-priced for other meals.

I had a layover night at Holiday Inn Express Dubai Airport, and overall, the experience was pleasant. The check-in process went smoothly despite the long lines, and I was greeted warmly as an IHG Gold Elite member. The room was decent and clean, but I was disappointed by a lack of water bottles. Breakfast was a highlight with a good buffet selection. However, some minor issues with cleanliness and inconsistencies in amenities were present.

My stay at Holiday Inn Express Dubai Airport was a mixed experience. On the one hand, the location was incredibly convenient, with a complimentary shuttle service to terminal 3. The front desk staff were helpful, and the room was clean with a comfortable bed. However, I experienced issues with soundproofing between connecting rooms, which disrupted my sleep, and the long wait time for the shuttle buses was frustrating.

My stay at Holiday Inn Express Dubai Airport was quite the mixed bag. On one hand, the location near the airport is incredibly convenient for those needing a quick stopover. However, I faced significant issues with service and room amenities that detracted from the overall experience. I left feeling disappointed, especially given my loyalty to the brand.
