Hotels near Zielona Góra-Babimost Airport

The airport is located near Babimost, about 34 km north-east of Zielona Góra, and there is no direct rail link: shuttle buses are arranged around the arrival and departure times of the few flights on the schedule, while a taxi covers the route in 45-50 minutes. With air traffic this limited, the choice of hotel matters less than planning the transfer itself: it's always worth checking in advance whether a coordinated bus is scheduled for your flight, or booking a taxi with some margin.
City centre

Zielona Góra city centre

Shuttle bus with timetables linked to departing/arriving flights, otherwise a taxi in 45-50 minutes on the DK32 road.

Pros

  • The only area of the city with a real choice of restaurants and evening life
Cons

Neighbourhood

Drzonków

About 10 minutes from the centre of Zielona Góra; from the airport the trip is slightly longer than from the city centre, still on the DK32 road and with no direct scheduled connections.

Best for: Those attending sporting events at the WOSiR in Drzonków (an equestrian and modern pentathlon centre) or looking for a quiet base outside the centre: it is not a shortcut to the airport, in fact it's slightly farther than the city centre.

Pros
  • A quiet residential area with garden and restaurant, close to the large WOSiR sports complex
  • Very high ratings among the properties in the Zielona Góra area
Cons
  • It doesn't reduce the transfer time from the airport: it's about 6 km farther than the city centre
  • Without your own car it's inconvenient to get around either to the centre or to the airport
