By taxi
It takes around 50 minutes to reach the Holiday Inn Moscow Sokolniki Hotel by car from Vnukovo. Official taxis to the hotel should cost around $70, or you can order a transfer with a driver to meet your flight here.
By train
If you prefer to use public transport, the fastest option is the Aeroexpress rail service, which runs from Vnukovo to Kiev Railway Station in downtown Moscow. Trains operate from 6am to 12pm every hour daily, and adult single tickets cost a little over $10. It is then necessary to take the metro from Kievskaya Metro Station and travel two stops east on the dark-blue line to Biblioteka im. Lenina. Change there for the red line, and continue east six stops to Krasnoselskaya, around 500m from the Holiday Inn Moscow Sokolniki.
By bus
There are also buses operating between Vnukovo and Yugo-Zapadnaya Metro Station from the bus stop across the car-park from the domestic arrivals lounge. Regular buses (611 and 611c) run from 5.30am to 12.50am daily at 10-15 minute intervals. Tickets cost around $3 and the journey takes just under 25 minutes. There are also faster and slightly more expensive marshrutka minibuses (611b and 45) that run daily from 7am to 11pm. From Yugo Zapadnaya, it is a direct journey north on the red line fourteen stops to Krasnoselskaya, which is just over five minutes' walk from the Holiday Inn Moscow Sokolniki.
