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. [1]
No entry visa into the country is required to stay at a transit hotel, [1] although some countries may require a transit visa.[ example needed ]
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.
