  • The only hotel with a direct pedestrian skybridge to the terminals
  • Soundproofing so good you can watch 747s take off in silence
  • 24-hour gym and indoor pool with runway views

Snabb Överblick: You are paying a premium for the 90 seconds it takes to walk from your bed to the check-in counter.

Recenserat av @Gipsy7I checked into the Parkroyal during a long layover and Room 817 blew my mind. The runway views are insane—I spent hours just watching planes take off from the sofa. The suite is huge with two bathrooms, which was a total luxury. Definitely beats sleeping at the gate!

The hype

Unbeatable convenience for layovers, with surprisingly comfortable beds and a quiet atmosphere given the location.

Reality check

The pool area often has a 'grimy' waterline and the hallways can be noisy with travelers leaving at all hours.

  • You are an aviation geek who wants to plane-spot from bed
  • You have a tight connection and need a guaranteed nap
  • You want to swim laps while watching international departures

Renlighet & Underhåll

8.5
  • Housekeeping: Daily and generally efficient. Rooms are typically dust-free upon arrival.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are spotless with good grout work, though some fixtures are showing age.
  • Maintenance: Solid. Double-glazing is intact (crucial). Elevators are fast.
  • Linens & towels: Crisp, white, and plentiful. Robes and slippers provided in most rooms.
  • Odors & scents: Neutral. No heavy perfumes, but no mustiness either.

  • Hallway chatter from early departures
  • Neighboring room alarms
  • Elevator 'ding' in rooms ending in x35/x36

Innan du bokar

Bra att veta

  • The skybridge connects to the Departures level; if arriving, you must go up to access it.
  • Seniors (Card holders) get ~10-15% off dining and rooms.
  • You can book 'day use' rooms for 3, 5, or 8 hours if you just need a shower and nap.

Vad du ska packa

  • Earplugs (for the hallway noise, not the planes)
  • Swimsuit (the pool is heated and open year-round)

Rum Genie

Bästa val

  • Runway View Rooms (higher floors) for the best plane spotting
  • Corner Suites for dual-aspect views and more floor space

Rum att undvika

  • Rooms ending in x35 or x36 (too close to the elevators)
  • Standard rooms on lower floors (depressing car park views)

Rumsförfrågan Genie – kopiera och klistra in

I would appreciate a room away from the elevators (avoiding x35/x36) to minimize hallway noise. If available, a higher floor would be preferred.

FAQ & Dolda tips

Allt du verkligen vill veta innan du bokar.

Is there a free shuttle?

No shuttle needed. It is connected directly to the terminals via a covered pedestrian skybridge (2-minute walk).

Can I leave my car there?

Yes, but it's pricey (~$40 AUD/night self-park). 'Park and Dine' deals exist if you spend $100+ at the restaurant.

Is the pool open 24/7?

No, usually 6 AM to 10 PM, but the gym is 24/7.

Can I see the runway from every room?

No. You must specifically book a 'Runway View' room; otherwise, you will likely stare at a parking garage.

Is breakfast included?

Usually not. It's a buffet at Airo Restaurant costing ~$44 AUD per adult.

Is it pet friendly?

No, pets are not allowed (service animals excepted).


Insider-tips

  • Non-guests can buy a 'Lounge and Swim' package to use the gym/pool/showers during a layover.

  • Spend $100 at Airo Restaurant to get free short-term parking (great for dropping people off).

  • The 'Barra Burger' at Airo is the secret menu winner over the fancy entrees.

5 saker du bör veta innan du åker

  • 💡The 'steam room' panic alarm is oddly prominent and unsettling.

  • 💡You have to walk through the conference area to get to the pool on Level 5.

  • 💡The elevators are in the center of the car park structure, which can be confusing upon first arrival.

  • 💡Room service breakfast starts at 4 AM, beating the buffet by two hours.

  • 💡The windows are double-glazed, but they are sealed shut — no fresh air.
