How Far Is Everything? Distances from Groß-Buchholz to MHH, Messe & the Airport
Real distances and travel times from our furnished apartments in Groß-Buchholz to the MHH, INI, the Messe fairground, Hannover Airport, the main station and the city centre.

One of the first questions guests ask is simple: how far is everything? Our furnished apartments are at Schierholzstraße 61 in Groß-Buchholz, a quiet, central part of Hannover with tram line 7 and a bus stop right at the door. That location is the reason most patients, fair visitors and business travellers choose us — almost everything you need is within fifteen minutes.
Distances to the hospitals (MHH & INI)
Groß-Buchholz is the hospital district, so the clinics are the closest landmarks of all. The Hannover Medical School (MHH) and the International Neuroscience Institute (INI) are essentially around the corner — ideal if you visit a patient every day.
- MHH (Medizinische Hochschule Hannover): about 5–10 minutes by car, a short tram ride on line 7.
- INI (International Neuroscience Institute): roughly the same — 5–10 minutes by car.
- Free parking at the house, so daily hospital visits cost you nothing extra.
Messe, airport and the main station
For trade fairs and travel the connections are just as good. Tram 7 runs into the centre, and from there the airport line and the fairground are a quick change away. By car the ring roads keep everything within a short hop.
- Hannover Messe (fairground): about 15–20 minutes by car or tram — handy for Hannover Messe, Domotex and Agritechnica.
- Hannover Airport (HAJ): around 15 minutes by car.
- Hauptbahnhof (main station): roughly 15 minutes by tram or car.
- City centre and Kröpcke: about 15 minutes door to door.
Check your own destination
Going somewhere we have not listed — a specific clinic department, an office or a venue? You do not have to guess. Our website has a built-in distance tool: type in your workplace or destination and it shows the real driving, taxi and walking times from the apartment, plus a live link for bus and tram. It is the easiest way to see, before you book, exactly how the daily commute will feel.
Why the location works for longer stays
Beyond the numbers, Groß-Buchholz is a calm residential area with a REWE supermarket and a restaurant next door, free parking for cars and vans, your own kitchen, a washing machine and dryer, and free Wi-Fi. It is close to everything yet quiet enough to rest — exactly what you want from a furnished apartment in Hannover when you stay for weeks rather than nights.
How far is the apartment from the MHH?

How long does it take to reach Hannover Airport?
Hannover Airport (HAJ) is roughly 15 minutes away by car. The Messe fairground and the main station are about 15 minutes as well.
