Just minutes from the airport is this popular four hotel with spacious rooms and a nice restaurant.
Idea Hotel Milano Malpensa Airport is equidistant from both Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 of the airport. The hotel is a short 10-minute walk from the free airport bus shuttle which loops between T1 and T2 every 15 minutes. The hotel also offers a private shuttle at an additional cost. A 5-minute taxi ride is another option to reach the hotel from the arrivals hall. Milan is around 45 minutes away by taxi. Private parking is available on-site.
The hotel rooms are pretty big and quite comfortable, however, a bit plain, especially for a 4-star hotel. They lack some of the expected amenities like a coffee/tea maker, kettle, extra blankets and pillows, slippers, etc. Guests frequently complain of problems with the AC and a smell of smoke in some rooms. Overall the rooms do the job but leave a lot to be desired.
The hotel's restaurant serves Italian cuisine. Its layout and design are uninspiring but to compensate, the food is delicious and authentic. The bar lounge seamlessly complements the restaurant for drinks afterward.
The breakfast buffet offered starts at 5 AM. It is usually not part of the room rate and is nothing spectacular. Still, it has enough variety to give you something for your palate too.
Idea Hotel Milano Malpensa Airport's main value proposition is the cheap rooms and its awesome location between the two terminals. However, if you want a more luxurious, full-service hotel, look elsewhere.

Popularhotels Lobby Talk brings you exclusive insights straight from the hotel staff. We've asked a number of carefully selected questions directly to the hotel team.
We have free outdoor parking that is free of charge and indoor parking under additional payment. The cost is € 8 per day/ € 40,00 per week. The parking service can not be booked in advance, but only at check in time at our hotel.
We have a continental breakfast from 5.00 am to 10.00 am.
The shuttle service, to and from Malpensa Airport, is always available 24/7. The price is €5,00 per person and it is free for children under 12 years old. You can call the number +39 3485686543 when you arrive to book your shuttle; if you need the service shuttle from the hotel to Terminal 1 or 2 you can book directly with the reception when you arrive at our hotel. Shuttle will be outside Gate 5 in terminal 1 and outside Gate 7 in Terminal 2.
If you cannot call the driver you can just go outside the correct Gate (Gate 5 in Terminal 1 or Gate 7 in Terminal 2) and wait for the transfer, as follows the timetable of departure from hotel to terminal. It takes 10 minutes to reach Terminal 1 and 15 minutes to reach Terminal 2.
We have a restaurant service open from 19.00 to 22.30 with an à la carte menu.
These questions were asked in December 2024 and may be translated to English and partially summarized. The information may have changed since then, so please verify any important details directly with the hotel.
If you want a hotel that gives you good value for the money, this is the perfect choice. I really liked that it was so close to the airport and the shuttle bus has departures pretty much all the time. I lived here when I had a flight that left early in the morning and I would recommend it to anyone doing the same.
