Lovely place. Great location. Rooms nice and clean
Michael, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff are fabulous

The staff here are amazing - very friendly and cheerful and couldn’t be more helpful! Really convenient for terminal 5 with the bus just a few minutes’ walk away. Comfortable room, decent breakfast. The only (tiny) gripe was that there was only 1 towel between the two of us, but that might have been because our room was changed at the last minute.
Anna, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very nice as usual

Stayed at this hotel several times due to its close proximity to the airport and ease of getting there with the pod. Only had a standard room this time. but was just as nice as any of the others. Nice to be back
Craig, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This was our second or third stay at this hotel and the restaurant and bar had been renovated and the service was much more professional. The room was comfortable and this, coupled with the changes to the restaurant made it an enjoyable stay.
