I had a wonderful three day stay at the Hotel Expo, the lady at the front desk did a marvellous job assisting me with anything I asked her to explain and show me. A special employee that should be recognized. Room was always made up and tidied when I returned. Easy to get to from the airport by taxi or Metro

The thing that makes this hotel so special is it's reception staff. The quality, commitment and friendliness of the reception team is what has drawn me back to this hotel over many years. They are always professional, understanding and possess excellent English language skills.

Close to airport, not to comfortable for rest

Staff were friendly, breakfast was great. Unfortunately the windows don't open and they had a central heating temperature set, meaning you can't adjust your rooms temperature. It was really hot, stuffy, and difficult to sleep without clean air.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Convenient but not relaxing. Well priced.

The reception staff on check in was top lady. Very professional, friendly and helpful. The room was designed nicely, however, the walls are so thin that I could hear my neighbours as if we were sharing a room. When you book a 4 star hotel you do not expect to find yourself in a dormitory.

The hotel is good , nice and clean . Only 2 things make me upset : first they have 1 musical and 2 news chanels ... TV is very important I don't understand why they have just a few programs . : Second I don't know did they accept pets but next to my room was a dog , barking all night , so I can't sleep . Just fix the TV programs and don't let pets and the hotel WILL be Exellent ! Kind regards!

We were in room 110 and the room was quite expensive . Outside the room was a large amount of ventilation equipment that was going off and on all night. My wife is a light sleeper and could not sleep. Told staff in morning on checkout and was not to bothered. Really was poor experience and no sleep left is with a very uncomfortable trip home . Major problem,, but the facilities and dining facilitate excellent, but because of the no sleep and the staff not caring will not be returning

This hotel was clean and near the airport. I do recommend ordering your airport shuttle ahead of time using the hotel’s website. The staff was friendly and very welcoming. The breakfast was very good with variety of choices and a buffet style. The view of the room showed the mountains and my kids loved watching the beautiful sunset. The room was clean and orderly. The location is safe, but industrial so not much to see around.

Very big spacious rooms, very clean! Front desktop was superb on every shift! If they don’t have a shuttle back to the airport, they will pay for a taxi for you! I would definitely come back to this hotel, especially due to proximity to the airport and how nice the rooms were!

The towels need replacing - they were old, frayed and with holes. Please check your minibar upon arrival. I was charged a deposit for the minibar, which I only later noticed was completely empty. Luckily, one of the receptionists kindly refunded the money the same day.
