- Who it suits
- Early departures from Terminal 2 or Terminal 3, late arrivals into either, and anyone with heavy bags.
- Why we would choose it
- It is joined to Terminal 2 by a covered walkway, about five minutes on foot, and reaches Terminal 3 through the central-area underpass in eight to ten.
- The compromise
- It is the only walkable full hotel for these terminals and tends to be priced accordingly.
- Worth paying more?
- Yes for a flight before 07:00. For later flights a hotel on the bus route costs a good deal less.
