“Very good for a good night before taking flight”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 February 2012

people found this review helpful

This hotel is connected via a covered walkway to Gatwick south terminal, so if you have an early flight then this is the place to stay ! Family rooms are little small,well appointed and nice bathroom. Children have a metallic bed which is not do nice, but they were happy with that and everybody had a good sleep. Very good buffet breakfast in the morning. Also room price was very reasonable.

taple - thank you so much for your review of our hotel: our families are extremely important to us and I was delighted that your children enjoyed the stay. The room with the bunk beds is a ‘quad room’ and usually sold via third party agents. We do however have very large family rooms that have a double be with two full size single beds. They are slightly higher in price than quad rooms but well worth the extra. Thank you again! Kindest regards, Sascha Koehler, General Manager

“Only if you have to”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

Stayed here when Heathrow was shut down. British Airways sent us there (on a bus from Hearthrow!).
We should have chosen our own hotel. We are actually a member of the Hilton Honors but this hotel is dead average. Yes it is in a good spot for a transit hotel and that's about it. To be fair the rooms are quiet and the beds ok. But everything you do here is expensive - we don't mind paying for 5 star hotels but we get a bit miffed at paying 5 star prices for 3 star property's.
The place is very run down and knocked about. If the Hilton group want to run cheaper(?) hotels they should do it under another name or make it what it should be. We had to call what we were told by British Airways was a free call number to re-book our tickets and after being on hold for a long time (and having no other choice but to wait to get on a flight the next morning) we were slugged by the hotel 65 pounds for the call - what a disgrace!

Room Tip: The name might say Hilton but nothing else about the hotel does - pay 5 star prices for a 2 star sta...

wetravellots101 - Thank you for taking the time to review our hotel and I am sorry that your stay was the result of a situation outside of your control. We fully appreciate that guests staying with us under those circumstances have already been inconvenienced and it is disappointing to learn that we contributed to that frustration in respect of telephone charges. We do however advertise in all bedrooms the cost of telephone calls and do offer public telephones or phone cards for our guests use. Whilst we are not and have never been advertised as a 5 star property, clearly your expectations were higher than we delivered and I do hope that you will accept my apologies. Yours sincerely, Sascha Koehler, General Manager

“Ok!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012 via mobile

Bought a room and valet parking package. We offered an upgrade on checkin to a room in the new wing of the hotel for £10 which we took. The room and bathroom were fine. But had an uncomfortable nights sleep on a very hard bed. It was also very hard to get the room to a reasonable temp (too cold)! Consequently we woke up several times during the night. Wish I had spent the night in my own bed and got up early to get to the airport for my flight. Not a great start to a holiday.

KerryLouLou - thank you so much for taking the time to review our hotel and please accept my apologies for any discomfort that you encountered. The hotel is renewing the beds alongside the bedroom renovations. Sadly without room details we are unable to investigate the temperature issue mentioned. I do hope however that you will not be dissuaded from visiting us again in the future. Kindest regards, Sascha Koehler, General Manager

“Not Hilton quality”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 February 2012

We stayed at this Hotel on the 18th Jan i was expecting a little bit of luxury, how wrong could i be instead i got a grubby room with poor quality furniture and no service from anyone at all, we could not even get served at the bar, the local travel lodge is better than this at does not cost a small fortune either

Room Tip: try the premier or travel lodges instead

“Ideal for its purpose”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012

people found this review helpful

A typical large London hotel situated on the airport. It is the only hotel right in the airport and we found it ideal for an overnight stay prior to an early morning flight. Check in/out was efficient, staff were polite and the food was good for this sort of establishment.

Room Tip: Not the runway side
