A frequent business traveler Oct 29, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Stayed at this hotel only for one night due to its great location to the local airport, it had direct connection to terminal ... a 5 minute walk to check in. The rooms and entire hotel was immaculate and the staff was professional and very friendly went out of their way to answer questions and help you get to what ever you desired to do, will definitely stay there again whenever I have to fly out of Gatwick airport. This is a first class hotel with a very good price for the area.

Convenient with some flair

ttirremr Sep 18, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Directly connected to the Gatwick North terminal - well when the reconstruction work is finished. A short walk anyway. Great ... for an overnight connection to an early flight. I've stayed in this hotel a few times and been satisfied. This time I tried the Asian restaurant and was surprised by the high quality. Try the Cantonese dishes. Only complaint is the high cost of Internet service (GBP 15/24 hours). Yes, many hotels have sorted out you are desperate. But I make choices with this in mind.

Very nice airport hotel

IC May 12, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

We needed to stay near London Gatwick for a flight out in the morning. The hotel itself is very nicely appointed for an ... airport hotel, lived up to the Sofitel reputation. The staff was very courteous and gave us invaluable information on how to get into London for much less money than the Gatwick Express would have been. The only downside was a fairly small workout room. Also, if you wanted to be in London proper, this would not be an ideal location, however, for our purposes, it was perfect.
