Plane Spotting Milan Malpensa

Crowne Plaza Milan Somma Lombardo Hotel
is very conveniently located between terminals 1 and 2 approximately 1/2 mile West of the 17R threshold. The hotel does offer a courtesy bus to the terminal which only takes 5 minutes. There is a set timetable for the courtesy buses so we suggest you ask about this when you book the hotel. No actual reports on the spotting and photo opportunities from this hotel are available, however the hotel does offer a convenient location with a reasonable price for Italian standards.
Location: *** Only a 5 minute courtesy bus ride away.
Spotting: * No reports. Being quite close to the threshold does suggest that some aircraft may be seen from here. Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.
Photos: * No reports available at this time
Value: ** Twin rooms start at about £85.
Book:   This hotel is available through the Alpha Rooms website

Holiday Inn Express Malpensa Airport
The hotel provides a free shuttle bus between terminals and the hotel.
Location: * Free shuttle bus to the airport. Away from the terminal complex but good views can be had of aircraft with the right rooms.
Spotting: ** Room 401 has a good view of both runways. Aircraft can be read off
with bins/scope however some traffic landing on the far runway that go
into terminal 2 are too far to read off so I had a Nav Box to help me
with this. Room 409 is also reported to have views of the action.
Photos: * Not really possible as trees obstruct the view of the
taxiway and runways however aircraft departing when taking off on
runway 34L can be photographed, but through a slightly tinted glass
Value: **  Around £70 per night
Book:   This hotel can be booked through the AGODA website
