Retkinia
About 2.4 km from the terminal, 7-8 minutes by car or taxi; buses 65A/65B still connect the district to the rest of the city in 20-30 minutes.
Best for: Dawn departures or one-night layovers, when you want to stay on the airport side without going down to the centre.
- The closest among the lodgings available on the airport side, handy for an early morning flight
- The Łódź zoo and Orientarium, in the nearby Park na Zdrowiu, are handy for filling half a day of layover
- A peripheral residential district: in the evening there's no street life like along Piotrkowska street
- Without a car you still need to rely on buses and taxis to get around elsewhere
