Overall, this property exceeded my expectations. I was expecting something very average, and overall the hotel was nicer than I was expecting: room was larger and better furnished/equipped than I was expecting. The hotel staff was very nice and quite helpful. The breakfast was quite good. The hotel is close to the train station, which was helpful for us.

Great location and amazing breakfast

It was easy to find. I love the buffet English breakfast. It’s right near the Luton railway station and easy access to the airport.

Was exactly what I needed for a late night arrival. Close to the airport
