"Clean room, decent breakfast (breads, meats, cheeses, yogurts, fruit, coffee, hot chocolate, scrambled eggs and sausage). For other meals, there are a few places within a 1Km walk to grab something to eat or walk to their partner restaurant. Great hotel for a layover as there was really nothing in the area to do. Almost all cable TV stations are in German only. There are two Holiday Inn Express hotels so know the hotel's address to make sure you get the right shuttle van. Shuttle was a black van with the words, "Holiday Inn Express" written across the hood. Communication was only weak point of this stay. I had to wait several days to learn about the shuttle van schedule. To help future travelers, the Dec 2025 shuttle van information is listed here: Meeting point for the shuttle to hotel is at Terminal 1, Exit B5, on the Arrivals level (follow airport signs for hotel shuttles). Trip from the airport to the hotel is free, They pick up/drop off at Terminal 1 only (Terminal 2 is not served). You register/pay for ride back to airport at check in and it costs € 10/person . Registration is not required for ride from the airport to the hotel. Transfer to/from the airport from 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. every 30 minutes, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. every 60 minutes, from 5:00 p.m. to 10:45 p.m. every 30 minutes.
