"Two night stay for my son's wedding..."

2026-03-22

Stayed here for my son's wedding...was not expecting much from an airport hotel but it was the closest place to our venue. On arrival I was blown away by the lovely reception area. Full of comfy chairs, a TV, bookshelves. The bar and restaurant were here.... the decor.... a very calm atmosphere. At reception we were greeted with lovely, friendly people. The room was next level. Super King bed, proper hangers in the wardrobe (those usual hangers in hotels drive me crazy...), I seemed to me that they'd thought of everything. The fridge (not always provided elsewhere) had two bottles of water for us. Great size mugs, and plenty of tea, coffee etc... The restaurant with a cafe vibe had a very limited menu but definitely covered different requirements. Though limited the food was presented beautifully, was delicious and the vegetables were cooked just so.... the service was friendly and welcoming... everyone is just so lovely there. We didn't try the spa but saw plenty of people with their children enjoying the facilities. Tons of parking at a reasonable price... Remember!! This is a budget hotel at an airport.... delivers so much more than I expected. With parking, we stayed two nights... not counting dinner it cost us roughly £62 each per night.... would definitely go back. Thank you Tama and everyone xxx

"Outstanding service"

2026-02-24

Tanya on the main reception was truly amazing, I’ve been to over 25 Radisson’s around the world and this was the best service I have ever received . My son has special needs and she was so understanding and helpful 10/10 ! Only wish kids meals in restaurant were a bit bigger , we had to order adult meals for them all !

"Nice hotel"

2026-02-17

Lovely hotel. Room (101) was good, you could see the end of the runway. Everything clean and looked quite modern. Pool, sauna and steam room were nice but a bit too busy during my visit. Breakfast was good. Only negative for me was the £15 parking fee, which felt quite expensive.
