Comfort Hotel Arlanda Airport Terminal

Comfort Hotel Arlanda Airport Terminal

10/10 Excellent
"I stayed overnight to catch a flight the next morning from ARN. The signage within the airport could be improved to provide maps or other directions for how to reach the hotels. I arrived on the Arlanda Express around 10pm, and got off in Terminal 2, however could not find any signage on how to reach the hotels. Tried to walk outside at first though didn’t seem possible to cross the wider roads with luggage. After seeing a pedestrian overpass in the distance connecting to Clarion Hotel, I figured there must be a way over, so I walked back into the terminal and headed north. Finally at the Terminal 5 area there were signs and from there it was only a 6-7 minute walk. The hotel itself was very good, clean, orderly facilities, comfortable beds, good water pressure and temperature, fantastic buffet selection for breakfast, which starts very early I think at 5:30am, with plenty of seating. There was even onsite coin laundry, a lobby bar with a limited selection of drinks, a ping pong table, Swedish gummy candy bar available for purchase by the 100grams. Staff was friendly at checkin and service was efficient. Checkout was a reasonable time. Would stay here again!"
