Linköping City Airport: where to stay, areas and recommended hotels

Linköping Saab Airport is about 2 km from the city centre, 4-5 minutes by car or taxi: one of the shortest transfers in all of Sweden, to the point that the distinction between "airport area" and "centre" doesn't really exist here. There is no public bus dedicated to flights, but the short distance makes the taxi a minimal expense compared with airports like Skavsta or Västerås.

Central Linköping

City centre · About 2 km from the terminal, 4-5 minutes by car or taxi; there is no public bus dedicated to flights, but city bus lines pass a short distance away.

Best for: Those who want the Cathedral and Stora Torget within walking distance, with the airport a few minutes away by taxi.

Pros

Among the shortest transfers in all of Sweden: a few minutes are enough to reach any hotel in the centre
Cathedral, Stora Torget and the Stångån river within walking distance of all the listed hotels

Cons

No direct public bus from the terminal: outside waiting-taxi hours you need to call one
A quiet university town: nightlife is limited compared with Stockholm or Gothenburg
