Self-catering
Apartments and houses to rent near Beauvais airport
These are by far the closest places to stay to the terminals, between 430 and 610 metres, when the nearest hotel is over a kilometre away. All of them are in Tillé, the airport's own village. In exchange, they run without a reception desk, and you let yourself in from a key box.

Booking a self-catering flat near the airport does not compare line by line with a hotel night. Five differences genuinely weigh on a stopover stay, and if they put you off, the list of classified hotels covers the addresses with a reception and breakfast.
Nobody is waiting for you
There is no reception. You are sent a code and collect the keys from a lockbox. For a 6am departure that is a clear advantage, since you leave without waking anyone and without handing a key back. The downside shows on arrival, because if your flight is delayed or diverted there is nobody on site to help, whereas the hotels in the area staff reception around the clock.
A kitchen, but no breakfast
All of these places have a fitted kitchen, and most have a washing machine. That is valuable in an area where independent restaurants are scarce in the evening, provided you have shopped beforehand. Against that, none of them serves breakfast, and if you fly early and want to eat before leaving, the ibis budget (service from 5am) or the ibis Aéroport (reduced service from 4am) remain the only options in the area.
The advertised price is not always the final price
Self-catering lets frequently charge a separate cleaning fee, and sometimes a separate tourist tax. On a single stopover night those fixed costs weigh proportionally far more than across a week's holiday, and a flat at €81 can land level with a €110 hotel once the total is worked out. Check the final figure before comparing.
Cancellation is often stricter
Terms vary from one owner to another and are generally less flexible than the free cancellation until the day before offered by hotel chains. Worth a look if your flight might be moved.
In exchange, you remove the transfer
This is the one argument that really counts here, and it is decisive. At 430–610 metres you walk to the terminal. No €4-per-person shuttle, no 4.15am first run you cannot afford to miss, no €21 night taxi. For two travellers on an early flight, the transport saving already covers part of the cleaning fee.
Frequently asked questions
Do the self-catering places near Beauvais airport have a reception?
No. Check-in is self-service, with a code and a key box. That is handy for a 4am departure, less so if your inbound flight is delayed or diverted: nobody is on site to help, unlike hotels with a 24-hour front desk.
Is the price shown for an apartment the final price?
Not always: cleaning fees and tourist tax are often added. On a single night these fixed costs weigh heavily, and a place at €81 can end up level with a hotel at €110. Compare the totals.
