Perfect place before an early flight

The check in lady was not very friendly or quick but otherwise, the consierge and check out chap were efficient, very helpful and friendly. Tip: If you are being driven and dropped at the hotel, park, check in and say your "goodbyes" within 10~15 minutes and the helpful parking person will waive you parking fee. This was most appreciated as travelling alone with a small child and heavy bags any help in getting to and from a place is much welcomed.

Good overnight stay before an early morning flight.

Very comfortable hotel. Good proximity to car rental and train to South terminal. Enjoyed a good meal in the Asian restaurant. Good value. Didn't cost much more than the restaurants inside the airport terminal.

Location, location, location

This was the perfect place to collapse en rte to Denver after weeks in Romania in 3 (or 2) star hotels. The Sofitel London Gatwick room was super comfortable (super bed) and totally quiet. Only problem: Access to internet at the Business Ctr. was pricey, and hotel food was too pricey for me. So, eat at the airport (attached by walkway), and use i'net for free 15 min. to print your boarding pass only. Hotel TV has BBC and CNN. Also 1 channel in Arabic, I think. And TV has Fr., Spanish, German also. It was a cool, misty day...so I just slept and read and watched TV in luxurious quiet in this very comfortable room. It was worth the extr 4 star cost for that comfort en rte home to Colo. after living on the cheap in E. Europe for the 5 prev. weeks.

Money-saving tip: In Hotel

Buy small carton of milk, and then use that with your hotel room's powdered(or drip) coffee, so you don't have to use the powdered "cream". It's worth it.

Sofitel Gatwick

I love Sofitel hotels. This one is slightly older than some of the other Sofitels I am used to. Nonetheless, it is extremely convenient as it is in the airport terminal and it can't get any better than that. Management should consider updating the rooms.

Easy hotel when flying in and out of gat

We stayed here one night before flying home to the US. The room was very nice and had a view of the beautiful courtyard. The room had the best air conditioner of our entire trip to Europe and the bed was very comfortable. It made catching our flight out of Gatwick the next day extremely easy!!

Excellent Stay at Sofitel London Gatwick

The desk agent, [...] was brilliant and very courteous. The room was quite comfortable. Superb service. Then again, it's Sofitel - The Conceirge, [...] was diligent in getting me a taxi - he checked to make sure that the driver was on schedule.

It's in the North Terminal of Gatwick Airport - just a few steps to the Departure and Arrival areas. Additionally, the tram that shuttles you to the South Terminal to join a train into Central London is adjacent to the hotel. It is quite convenient.
