What guests think

At Holiday Inn Express Syracuse Airport by IHG, travelers highlight the convenient location near SYR and the helpful airport shuttle, while feedback on cleanliness, room conditions, and breakfast ranges from very positive to dissatisfied depending on renovations and upkeep.

Many guests praise friendly, accommodating front-desk and shuttle staff, though others report slow or unstaffed check-in and miscommunication. Renovations and maintenance are recurring: some rooms are newly updated with comfortable beds, while others suffer from noise, broken fixtures, or HVAC and TV problems. Amenities are mixed—breakfast quality varies, the pool is occasionally closed, and parking is limited with no park-and-fly. Expect a convenient airport stopover with uneven execution.

The only person working was brand new and told us “just to park” but took our name for shuttle without getting license plate. So our car was towed. When we came back two days later, the same staff member was working and said there was nothing she could do and acted like she knew nothing about it. Absolutely ridiculous and unprofessional.

The person behind the desk said it should be fine, but we returned to find our car had been towed. Found out the whole row of cars were towed. 572$ US charge!!!

The good- there were no bedbugs, check in/out was easy, the desk people were polite and kind. The was a sign in the bathroom that said they’d get you toiletries you’d forgotten if you needed, not that we used that but it was a kind gesture! They also had dove shampoo, conditioner and body wash which was much better than the typical hotel things they give you. The not so great but definitely tolerable- people were pretty loud late at night (like 2300-midnight). My partner wanted decaf coffee when we got there at 1700, but the coffee had been sitting there since 0400 as the coffee machine said and it looked gross. Not a huge ordeal, just minor complaints. Scratchy towels, again, not a big deal, but just trying to be as detailed as possible! The ugly-The room was very dirty. There was a bloody fingerprint in the shower (yuck) and a previous persons hair all over the bathroom. The cover over the shower/fan vent thing was missing. The floor wasn’t vacuumed at all either, there was stuff all over it that I could feel crunching under my shoes which grossed me out. There were also crumbs all over the bedside table as well. Perhaps this is what you can expect at a hotel that’s probably used for travel. I mean after all, we got there around 1900 and left at 0500 which I imagine is standard. But as someone who used to do custodial work, I was very disappointed. I don’t expect it to be perfectly clean, but a bloody fingerprint really grossed me out.

Checked in and was assigned a room. Went to the room and it wasn’t cleaned & you could clearly see that. Assigned another after going back down to the front desk, second room was a little bit better but not to the expectations you’d expect. Honestly think they just made the bed. Luckily we travel with disinfectant wipes and did a quick wipe down before we relaxed for the night. Free shut was was to use and definitely convenient.

I was appalled at the cleanliness of the bathroom - black and pink mould around the base of the shower, straight up hair and other stuff in the shower (was it even cleaned prior to us coming? I don’t think so), shower handle fell off, water was 6 inches deep in the shower - would not drain. Brought these concerns to the head of the cleaning department and nothing was changed. The continental breakfast was also very poor: out of pancakes, cinnamon buns and orange juice. The poor woman in charge of the dining room was working hard but could not manage the lack of items at the facility. Will not come back.

This is our 2nd stay in this hotel. We were surprised in the decline in cleanliness. The luggage carts were STILL broken from our last stay in Dec 2023. On this visit, our room (330) was dirty. The toilet did not look freshly sanitized, bathroom floor had shoe prints everywhere, the bath tub had long hairs stuck to the shower wall.

Then we discovered there were no more Keurig cups for the in room coffee pot. In other words, staff had a friendly and helpful, but management needs to be more on top of building and guest needs. Shuttle to airport is excellent.

Unfortunately, the issue is the walls are thin in the rooms and my wife was told that going up to the third floor would be quieter and it was not… She did not get much sleep because of noise outside of the room. This is not the management issue… It’s the builders issue with creating a structure that does not allow a person to rest properly.

It’s convenient for a place to stay if you have an early flight out and don’t want to add drive time to your morning! We had a room that had a ac/heating unit that had been “fixed up” but the thermostat was non existent. It was set at 68 and woke up a couple hours later sweating to death and the room feeling like it was in the mid 80s. Was not prepared to be barbecued but now that I know..I’ll just make sure I turn the heat off before bed lol

I checked in late at night, only to be awoken before 8 am by loud noises. I looked out my window and realized that my room was directly under demolition. When I went outside to look, I saw that the demolition was only in that corner of the hotel and I should have been placed in any other part of the hotel. Front desk and another office staff member couldn't have been less concerned. I have written to the manager and hope to hear back. Pretty sure what they did was illegal.

I wish the breakfast was better - they had a pancake machine but it was broken. Scrambled eggs had no taste. I would stay again.

The hotel is bright, clean, and newly renovated. However there were a few minor issues with the room due to ongoing renovations (door was very hard to open). We really enjoyed the breakfast last time but this trip it was poor (pancake machine broken, several items unavailable including butter for toast, and “bacon” was a very strange paste-like offering). Overall still good value for the money.
