Transit hotel

A transit hotel is a short-stay hotel located within the transit zone of international airports, allowing passengers with extended layovers (typically a minimum of six hours) to rest while awaiting their next flight. These hotels are situated within the airside security/passport checkpoints, close to airport terminals, providing convenient access for travelers.

No entry visa into the country is required to stay at a transit hotel, although some countries may require a transit visa.

For a notable example outside the airport context, the Transit Hotel in Edmonton, Canada, is a historic establishment that served travelers in a different capacity, reflecting the broader concept of transit-oriented lodging.
