My flight to Helsinki was the most adventurous in my life. It was my first flight on my own and I was about to stay 3 winter months in Finland for a traineeship. Until, I only knew the airport in Frankfurt / Germany which is not really famous for his clarity. You can imagine, I was nervous...
There was no reason for my fear. The airport (lento-asema in finish by the way) is very small (some years ago it did win the price as the most clear airport in Europe) and very clear structured. In July 2003 the main terminal was finished and is about 1.000 m² big.
The airportHelsinki-Vantaa is about 1/2 Stunde from the City of Helsinki (about 19 km) and about 25 km from Tapiola in Espoo. For 4,90 ? the bus takes you from the airport to the centre of Helsinki. And Helsinki is worth at least a weekend trip! Direct bus connections are ...
Advantages: Right on the Airport doorstep and connected via walkways. Disadvantages: NOT cheap!
walk back into the airport to eat and drink if you are staying the day before a trip. Otherwise its the hotel restaurant where they like you to book but you'll get straight in as I never saw it busy!
There is a lounge area, with a few dozen tables in the centre area with waitress service. It can be a little slow especially if its busy.
Consider signing up for the Hilton Honors card before you go. Its free but will enable you to get to check in or out quicker than other people.
BOTTOM LINE:
Good Point: You can walk to the airport in about 5 mins so NO fiddleing about with getting curtsey buses!
Bad Point: It'll cost a bit more than other hotels but the convenience of the location could well make up for it. ...
Advantages: Well run hotel Disadvantages: Not near City Centre and 5 miles from the airport.
plus point in my view. As usual, I went into the Hilton site at http://hhonors.hilton.com via the Quidco website, (www.quidco.com) which meant I got 6% cashback, not to be sneezed at even if it does take a while to come through! I had decided to stay my first night at the Hilton Dublin Airport: http://www1.hilton.com/enUS/hi/hotel/DUBAPHI-Hilton-Dublin-Airport-hotel/i ndex.do
I was in a hurry to book, as everything was a bit frenetic and so did not spend time checking exact hotel location details - my mistake!
The booking process went through painlessly as usual - a fully flexible bed and breakfast rate for roughly £93 and I was soon holding my reservation confirmation in my hands. However, I noticed that for some reason, despite having specified a non-smoking room, my print-out said I had a smoking room, urrggh! Deciding it ...
