New Hilton Garden hotel airport

Approximately how far of a walk is it from the hotel to the terminal?  200-300 feet or more?

I know you didn't ask this but we stayed at the Hangar Inn on Tuesday evening and can recommend that and their free shuttle that drops you at the door of the airport.

We stay there also but the person flying needs a cane and I’m not sure they can climb up and out of the shuttle. It is a high step. We’ll see we like the Hangar Inn and a bit cheaper.

Check for sure but I think that there is/was a step that extended out of the side door of the van.

One minor thing that MAY be a problem is that we were going to eat at the nearby Wings Army restaurant but it was upstairs - no elevator. There was a "hamburg -taco place" downstairs that sufficed but......

The Hilton Garden at GDL says 0.10 Kilometer from Airport, that'd be 300 feet. Here's their website, call them for more info.

Thanks. The person needs a cane due to a double fracture of the thigh a few weeks ago Thanks for the info.

Wondering if the wheelchairs at the airport would take them to and from the hotel?? It really is close to the terminal.

I don’t know. It’s over 300 feet. They probably just work in the terminal. I’ve never seen one outside or in the parking lot.

I got this email address for them.  Maybe shoot them a message in both English and Spanish and see what they say?

The new Hilton Garden Inn is attached to and part of the airport terminal. It is directly accessible to the Terminal via escalator and elevator and is located next to the Domestic Arrivals area. It's part of the new construction opened up on that end of the Terminal including a beautiful new Starbucks if you're into expensive coffee.

We were just at the aeropuerto yesterday and even had lunch at the Hilton when our friend's flight was delayed/diverted to Puerto Vallarta before returning to GDL.

This was the airport Hilton's answer to my email.  I used google translate as well as showing the original Spanish.  They responded to my email within a few hours.

From the terminal where they are located, they can get support from the wheelchair brigade. As soon as you arrive here at the hotel, we also have wheelchairs for guests to use.

El hotel esta localizado dentro del aeropuerto a un costado de las llegadas nacionales, el acceso es únicamente desde el interior.

Desde la terminal en la que se encuentren pueden apoyarse con la brigada de silla de ruedas. En cuanto lleguen aqui al hotel, nosotros contamos con sillas de ruedas de igual manera para uso de huespedes.
