That is a tricky one. And the word order and emphasis matter here.
"Wo ist er?"
Where is he?
"Wo ist er denn?"
Emphasis on "denn"is a bit like: "Where is he staying though."It implies that you are waiting impatiently.
Emphasis on "er" means that for example you are tracking someone and he is at a strange/unexpected location.
"Wo ist denn er?" Emphasis on "er". Also when you are tracking someone and he is at a strange/unexpected location.
