well, there are very few really good hotels directly at airports. The Radisson Blu ZRH or Renaissance WAW for example.

But if I have the need to stay at the airport, I prefer to take the most convenient place and do not go offsite which requires a tram, train, metro, bus or taxi ride to get to the hotel and back just to save a few $$. Doesn’t matter if paying out of my pocket or on expenses.

I happily pay a premium for 30 minutes more sleep and no worries of a traffic mess-up in the morning.

and while the RB in ARN is not super luxury, it is fine. And really really convenient. At 110$ a bargain. Don’t think you will end up saving much going offsite. Perhaps 20 to 30$. Probably need to spend more just for transportation - unless you take a hotel with fee shuttle like the other Radisson.
