cant remember the name but there is a hotel (very swanky too I think) that actually is on airport ground and looks over the terminals and runways.... sorry cant be off much more help

SAS Radisson is situated at the airport, Hilton is also very close...

super_si 18 August 2004 09:58 AM

yeah, wanted that one but fully booked. Was £120 :eek:

Crowne is £50 :)

It is right at the airport (beside the long term parking for Terminals 1 & 3, I think).

super_si 18 August 2004 08:01 PM

Not too sure. Would you know if, Once ive checked in can i return to the room or do i have toleave the key when i go.........

douglasb 18 August 2004 08:12 PM

:confused:

Call them and ask.

I've had a look for location maps and can see why you're not sure where it is. Click on "map" from this link and get confused! There is no hotel, never mind a Crowne Plaza, at that location. Crowne Plaza is definitely within the airport perimiter and is within walking distance of Terminals 1 & 3 if your luggage isn't too heavy or is on wheels.

d'oh im T2 :(

Cheer anyway

douglasb 18 August 2004 08:36 PM

I guess that the hotel will run a courtesy bus/taxi to T2.

super_si 18 August 2004 09:12 PM

i hope so :) is T2 separate from the main complex then? Not being there for a while

douglasb 18 August 2004 09:24 PM

Yes. T2 is a good bit away from T1 & T3. You're looking at at least 0.5 miles, if not more by the time you go round the one-way system.

Brainwave! If you're in a hotel within walking distance of T1 or T3, just walk over to the nearest terminal. Pick up a luggage trolley and there are moving walkways to take you to T2. Experienced this about 3 weeks ago when I'd flown out to Dublin on Ryanair and left the car at T2 Long Term, but the only flight back at a suitable time was Aer Lingus who don't use T2. Came back to T1(?), picked up the luggage and did the moving walkway bit - about 10 minutes IIRC. :)

super_si 18 August 2004 09:36 PM

yep! i remember them from last time! Probs end up on them anyway as we are on the train from the north
