Stayed here for an early flight from Gatwick. The hotel was easy to find and extremely convenient from the train. I got there early so I could use the gym facilities - very small but perfectly adequate and everything was working and kept clean. Choice of food was great - I’m a fussy vegetarian and was delighted with the menu choices (I rarely say this). Nice choice of beers and IPA’s available. Service was great. Really pleased with my stay here compared to others I have used at the airport - so pleased I have booked it again. Thank you

Great stay

Our stay was exceptional, and the location was highly convenient. We opted to reside in a suite on the second floor, which was consistently satisfactory. Additionally, we dined at the Asian restaurant, which offered an exquisite dining experience. I highly recommend the set menu.

Everything you need, done really well

We were only here for a brief stay before an early flight, and almost didn't want to leave. Friendly professional staff, chic room which was immaculately clean. Only con is that the aircon somewhat noisy but were able to turn it off so not really an issue when we were there. Highly recommend 👍
