This was our third visit and sadly it was let down by lack of heating, hence such a poor rating for room condition. Our room was very cold on our arrival, Monday 16th Jan was quite a cold day and having driven to Gatwick straight from work were looking forward to having a warm shower to freshen up. After following the instruction on the heating panel we were unable to activate the system so called for help. This arrived very promptly and we were assured that we had actually switched on the heating but it would take a while to actually come through the heating vents. We questioned if the radiator in the bathroom, which was also cold, would also warm up but were told that unfortunately the radiators were not currently working. Our room did eventually warm up but the bathroom remained like a fridge for the whole of our stay. It was very disappointing to find that after much refurbishment the heating seemed inadequate. We would appreciate your comments.

Nice to be able to leave the car parked at the hotel safely. Restaurant had a friendly atmosphere - much nicer than 5* dining! Beds gave us a good night's sleep and the air conditioning/heating worked very well. Bathroom best we've seen in a hotel! Transfers efficient and friendly.

It is a pity that the transfer to the air port does not run late.Our aircraft was 2 hours late and we did not know that there was no transfer to the hotel. We had to pay out for a taxi to take us back to the hotel

its what to expect from a hotel at only £39. however save you money and get a full English twice the size at the airport at the same price, at least you will know that if you are on a long haul, you will feel full till your in-flight meal.

only 1 night stay before flight departure but fitted the bill.my main criticism would be a lack of food available until 1600.we arrived at 1400 having had nothing since breakfast and had to wait until 1600, as there are no cafes or restaurants within walking distance this was a minor disappointment

An older hotel with the decor and fittings tired and well past there best but undergpoing extensive re-fit. We visited right in the middle of an extensve re-fit. The cutting edge, modern bedroom with wall mounted flatscreen tv was even more of a pleasant surprise after the vintage 60's and 70's decor encountered on the way there! European reception staff very friendly and helpful, hotel ideally placed for Gatwick with regular friendly transfers. Car parking facilities basic, but no problems.

The Restaurant was a throw back to the mid 70's and lacked any character or ambience. Although the room was clean the bathroom had seen better days as had the reception and linking corridors. As a one night stopover it served the purpose but would not rush to go back there.

Big dissapointment was the bar - or complete lack of a bar - one table in the claustrophobic dining room - just awful.
