Holiday Inn Express Kolkata Airport, an IHG Hotel

Great Location: very near to the Airport. Hotel arranges taxi for pick-up and drop to airport with reasonable payment. Very convenient for people staying in the hotel for overnight flight connections. Superb and Delicious Breakfast with wide variety of choices. Room neat and clean. Very cooperative and professionally trained employees. Hotel employees are very helpful.

The Holiday Inn has always been a familiar haven for my travels, a place where comfort unfolds like a warm embrace. However, on this visit, a touch of their usual charm seemed to be missing – the absence of a bellhop, a vacancy that tugged at my heartstrings. I can only imagine the plight of weary travelers burdened with overflowing luggage! Thankfully, my own journey required only a single carry-on. Yet, the spirit of hospitality remained undisputed. The staff, each one an A1 gem, ensured my stay was seamless. And to my delight, when a pre-dawn departure was made by me, a perfectly packed breakfast awaited me – a thoughtful gesture that shocked my adventure and exemplified this true essence of the Holiday Inn experience.

Nothing more to advice regarging the property. Only one thing to advice. Keep adequate items of food, lunch and dinner. Everything is fantastic there exept availabilty of some common foods. In breakfast, there were no sweets items. Puri/Luchi were not by good cook. No provision of Dhosa. Sambar was not up to the mark. In lunch and dinner we had to go outside to take our food. A simple availabilty of 4-5 items Viz. Rooti, Butter Naan, Dal fry, Chili chicken, Paneer item was expected to avoid go outside for takng our food. We travel frequently and use to stay 4-5 star hotels. Hope, shortly the management shall take care on food of their guests.

The hotel is located next to the airport, we walked from the airport for the check-in. The morning breakfast buffet is very good. The quality of food at the Palm Kitchen hotel restaurant is very good. We went during Durga Pujo season, so the restaurant had Bengali cuisine buffets which was very nice. If you want to stay close to the airport in an upscale hotel then this is the best choice.

Super convenient location very near Kolkata airport. They arranged airport pickup and drop-off for 500 INR. The airport is almost close enough to walk, but would require crossing busy streets. Friendly, helpful staff.
