Hanover Airport Hotel and Parking Packages
Hanover Airport is a mid-sized German regional airport serving Lower Saxony and beyond. It is particularly busy during the Hannover Messe trade fair, when accommodation and parking around the airport fill quickly. Two hotels near the terminal offer park and fly packages, covering both premium 4-star and mid-range 3-star options with shuttle services.
How it works
Book your hotel and parking package through Aerfortel. Drive to the hotel the evening before your flight and park in the hotel’s designated spaces. The shuttle takes you to Hanover Airport terminal in the morning. The airport is compact with a single main terminal building. On your return, the shuttle collects you from arrivals and brings you back to your car.
Hotels with park and fly at Hanover Airport
Novotel Hannover Airport
Half a kilometre from the terminal with a shuttle, the Novotel Hannover Airport is a 4-star mid-range property well positioned for transit guests. Novotel airport hotels in Germany are efficiently run, and this property has spacious rooms, a restaurant, and a pool. It is the stronger of the two options for comfort and facilities, and the price sits at mid-range for Hanover rather than at a premium level. Good for families and business travellers.
Courtyard Hannover Maschsee
Two kilometres from the terminal with a shuttle, the Courtyard Hannover Maschsee is a 3-star mid-range hotel from the Marriott family. The distance is slightly further than the Novotel, but the shuttle covers it without difficulty. Rooms are comfortable and the Marriott Courtyard standard is reliable. For travellers who prefer the Marriott product or want to earn Bonvoy points, this is the practical choice at Hanover.

Frequently asked questions
Does Hanover Airport get very busy during trade fair season?
Yes. The Hannover Messe is one of the world’s largest industrial trade fairs, typically held in April or May. During that period, accommodation across the Hanover area fills up and prices rise significantly. If you are travelling to or from Hanover during Messe, book your park and fly package well in advance.
Is there a direct train from Hanover Airport to the city?
Hanover Airport is served by the S-Bahn S5 line, connecting it to Hanover Hauptbahnhof in about 15 minutes. If you want to spend an evening in Hanover before your flight, parking at the hotel and taking the S-Bahn is straightforward. Confirm the last shuttle back from the station with the hotel if arriving late.
How does park and fly at Hanover compare to official airport parking?
Hanover Airport’s official parking ranges from short-stay covered options to open-air long-stay lots. For trips of five days or more, the Novotel or Courtyard park and fly package is generally competitive with the long-stay options once the hotel room is included. Prices can spike during trade fair periods regardless of where you park.
Can I drive from Brunswick or Hildesheim to Hanover Airport for a park and fly?
Yes. Brunswick (Braunschweig) is about 50km from the airport on the A2, and Hildesheim is around 35km away. Both are comfortable driving distances for an evening check-in the night before a morning flight.
