Great hotel

The staff at reception were very extremely welcoming and friendly, i arrived quite late so appreciated the prompt check in. The room was incredibly quiet considering the location. It was also clean, cool, and very roomy, just a shame I was there for less than 12 hours so didn’t get a chance to fully appreciate it.

I booked this hotel due to its proximity to the airport as I was on a red-eye flight the next morning. It is only a 10-minute walk from the hotel to the terminal which avoids the hassle of trying to book a taxi for such a short journey. The check-in process was pleasant and the room I was allocated (basic double-bed) was cleverly designed to include everything you're likely to need for a short stay. (Clothes storage space is very limited.) The bed was very comfortable and the linen felt very fresh. My room faced directly out onto the main runway, but with the windows closed the activity was barely audible. The very small bathroom was similarly well designed with all the basics available. I like the sign on the wall (see photo) which was more thoughtful than I've seen in many more expensive hotels. So why not 5 star you might ask? Because the evening meal is best forgotten about. Otherwise and enjoyable stay in a very convenient location.

Closet hotel to Luton Airport. A short 10 minute walk along a sidewalk to the airport terminal. Safe, comfortable and ok food. Spent 1 night as we had an early flight. Rooms are small but more than OK for 1 night stay with kids.
