Zurich Airport Hotel
- Four hotels are a covered walk from the terminal: the Radisson Blu by its own walkway, the Hyatt Regency and Hyatt Place through the passage to The Circle, and the Alpine Garden Capsule Hotel opposite Check-in 1.
- The Mövenpick and Dorint run free shuttles, the Hilton charges CHF 7, and the ibis budget is two tram stops away (park, sleep and fly).
- Trains leave the station under Check-in 3 every 10 minutes and reach Zürich Hauptbahnhof in 10 to 12 minutes for CHF 7.20; a taxi is about CHF 65 (getting into Zurich).
- Nothing takes off between 11:30 pm and 6 am, so a late arrival rarely means a lost night; sleeping in the airport and day rooms cover the airside Transit Hotel and the capsules.
- Minimum connection time is 40 minutes, lounges are in Docks A and E, and the ski trains to Davos and Engelberg start at the airport station (connecting, lounges, ski transfers).
