The Imperial Hotel in Moscow has free wifi as does The Terrace Hotel in Paris :ok:
However The Imperial more than makes up for it with the over priced food :*.

Citation500 31st March 2009, 07:36 Abelag Handling in Bruxelles (EBBR) free WiFi
Vnukovo 3 in Moscow (UUWW) free WiFi
hawker750 31st March 2009, 13:43 Departure lounge at Nairobi HKJK good WiFi. Does the BAA treat its clients (pax and crew) as well as the Kenyan Airport Authority?
AMEX 31st March 2009, 16:59 TAG EGLF and LSGG, Holiday Inn Basel all for free.
Hotels who don't offer it for free aren't worth stopping there. Sorry, this is the 21st century and any attempt to rob clients with deals such as offered by Swisscom, should be named and shamed !
Bizjetguy 31st March 2009, 17:58 Marriott CDG, Korston Hotel & Casino in Moscow, Homewood Suites in New Jersey, Pelican Hotel Miami Beach, Marriott NYC on Broadway if you stay on the Executive Floor and have really nice front desk, Amanyara on Turks and Caicos

Flintstone 6th April 2009, 04:26 Marco Polo Hong Kong.
FlyMD 6th April 2009, 07:48 Gulfstreamaviator: yah, Hilton Basel still charges a relative fortune for any internet access.. The alternative is to take your laptop across the street to the Starbuck's, by an insanely expensive coffee, and get 30' of free internet.... But beware, it's probably the earliest-closing Starbuck's of all creation, no joy last time after 9pm!!
Gulfstreamaviator 8th April 2009, 06:07 Exec floor has free wifi, also free in exec lounge.
All other floors, etc, pay.
Slight aside: Fly MD, thanks re Basel, (close to home for you), tried leaning out of window to catch the signal, but never worked.
Marriott near Zurich Airport, was not free when I was last there, but picked up "free" wirless signal, good enough to check E Mails.
Thanks to all contributors: idea: can we put Hotel name in headline, to assist searchers serching.
Duck Rogers 8th April 2009, 10:37 ...can we put Hotel name in headline, to assist searchers serching.
Psssst! I think someone looking a lot like me and wearing my clothes suggested this in the first place. This has of course been studiously ignored by all and sundry and why I'm having to edit almost every post to show the details in bold. Except yours of course Gulfstreamaviator, and that bloke over there........ and the funny looking bloke at the back with the wart.
As for the rest of you................no thanks round here................nobody cares.........mumble mumble................dunno why I bother....................;)
Tigger4Me 8th April 2009, 11:01 Loads of free Internet in airports, hotels, bars cafes and shopping malls all over Portugal. Mostly wi-fi but at OPO at least you'll need a cable.
Edit: After a weekend touring the bad news is that Portugal telecom must have realised the potential and employed some hotshot sales person. It seems that they have signed up many hotels and shopping centres as well as every post office. I can't speak for LIS or FAO airports but the free wired connection is still available airside only at OPO. They also offered paid wi-fi with a choice of 5 operators. I clicked on Portuguese Telecom and had a 90 minute freebie so give that a try first.
Gulfstreamaviator 8th April 2009, 15:11 Great minds, seldom differ.......

Gulfstreamaviator 16th August 2009, 17:55 Ask the handlers to book this hotel in Torremolinos (on the sea front), and get the 8th floor, the special floor.
Lounge, free breakfast (anyway, a stale bun, and machine coffee, shared bottle of water), and free cable and wireless internet.
The breakfast room is typical spanish tourist breakfast room, and don't try to steal an apple, the security waiters will take it from you.
Enjoy, glf
