Categories

Cleanliness
7.9
Generally reported as clean in multiple reviews, but with some issues (carpeting showing wear/difficult to clean in tiny rooms; at least one clogged shower drain reported).
Service
9.3
Staff repeatedly described as friendly and very helpful (help with luggage, manager moving guests to suitable rooms); a few isolated service lapses noted but overall highly positive.
Location
10
Overwhelmingly praised as the primary selling point — inside/adjacent to Terminal 3 (prime/‘five star’ location) and ideal for very early flights.
Room Quality
5.5
Consistent complaints about very small rooms, lack of windows (claustrophobic), limited space to open luggage, occasional maintenance issues (shower drain). Beds/comfort satisfactory but room size is a clear negative.
Amenities
6.8
Basic on-airport amenities functional (comfortable beds, good showers), but some amenities disappointed (library area not really a library; coffee machine bitter/unpleasant).
Value for Money
5.8
Multiple guests called the rate expensive or exorbitant for the small rooms; perceived value is low despite location convenience.
Food and Beverage
6.5
Very limited comments — the in-hotel coffee machine was specifically criticized as unpleasant; otherwise little F&B feedback.
Overall Experience
9
Fulfils its purpose very well for short/overnight stays and early flights: clean, quiet and convenient with friendly staff, despite cramped rooms and pricing concerns.

Ideal
Pros:

Location in Terminal 3 Arrivals and 3 mins from Departures was ideal for our early flight. The front desk staff was great too.

Cons:

Our standard double room was very small, only had access to the bed from one side and had no windows so felt a little claustrophobic. The bed creaked a bit too!

Convenient for onward travel - but is it worth it?
Pros:

Location was perfect as we were flying from Terminal 3 the next day. The bathroom was very good - compact but very well laid out and equipped - it was also exceptionally clean.

Cons:

I expected the room to be small and to at least have a window. The room was hardly big enough to move around in, with the bed up against two walls making getting in and out of bed difficult. And there was no window making the room feel slightly oppressive - though it was helped by decent lighting. It's also eye-wateringly expensive for such a small space.

Pros:

Easy access to the aiport for a 5 20am check in. It was good not having to get a bus from a hotel on bath road. Gave us a but more sleep after a very late night. It was clean and comfortable good shower pressure.

Cons:

It was expensive for size of the room and lack of included breakfast. The tea making facility lacked typical english breakfast type tea. It dod have coffee and camomile tea though. Beds were a bit close together not much space which is ok for what it was a place to catch a few winks but expected more for the price. Other hotel airports attached to terminal in other airports cost less include breakfast and have windowed rooms with space.

Hotel excellent 👌 location poor
Pros:

Once in the Hotel, Excellent 👌

Cons:

Very misleading stating the car park was a walk, not the case had to get bus transfer. So compared to other hotels the extra cost was not worth it.
When I stay at the bloc Hotel at Gatwick, you park up 5 minutes walk to Hotel and you are in, Much better.

Very convenient location for departure
Pros:

Extremely convenient location

Cons:

Not a lot of room and had to ensure bathroom door remained closed to avoid setting off fire alarms. Only 1 tea bag available. Perhaps i could've requested more from reception but didn't realise until the morning. Quite pricey for what is offered but it's all down to location I guess. I've reached out to the hotel via email to enquire whether a item of luggage was left behind, no response in last 3 days.
