We stayed a night before a flight as we live a long way from the airport so like to drive down and leave the car. We chose the hotel as keeping our keys is important to us.
There weren’t any parking spaces near the front but plenty round the back and we walked round the front and was met by a lovely check in lady who assigned our room immediately and showed us where to go.
The standard room is small but it’s fine for the one night we need. Has a bath and shower, kettle and coffee/tea, 2 free bottles of water and a fridge. The safe was showing low battery so we didn’t dare use it! The view was on a rooftop and other room windows but we weren’t here to look out of the window.
The bar is standard airport bar prices - £7 a pint, £11-£14 for a cocktail, £11 for a glass of wine. All the drinks we tried were great. We chose to eat in the bar and the food was really good. Again, usual pricing - £20 for a burger and chips etc. there is a pub over the road but you need to book early as by the time we looked it was booked up. The hotel is cash free so you need to pay by card.
The bed was comfy and we had a great night sleep. There’s a machine in the lobby where you can arrange shared rides or taxis for the journey to the airport. We booked shared ride which was £14.99 for 2 people.
We used the pool/sauna. Despite the hotel being cash free they require you to have £1 for a locker. We didn’t have one and no one could change a note for us but the kind lady on reception gave us £1 and said to donate to charity instead of bringing it back which I thought was a nice touch.
We travel to LHR a few times a year and will definitely come here again.
