Hilton Garden Inn is the airport hotel with the round-the-clock shuttle. It runs free 24 hours a day from the terminals, parking is free for guests, and MPCT is about 11.6 road miles away by our routing, roughly 17 minutes with no traffic.
That 24-hour shuttle matters for a late landing. Breakfast is €26 (about US$30) a person and free under 12.
MIA restaurant serves lunch and dinner and the bar runs to 11:30 pm. The outdoor pool is unheated and opens May to September.
Book it for a midnight landing, and arrange your taxi to the port the evening before.
