Was just okay

Hotel needs a bit of a spruce up. Pictures online don't look like the actual rooms on hotels.com. bathrooms looked beautiful in pictures but just very plan and basic in actual sight. Very dated.

Good hotel and good service

The hotel was very convenient to horley train station and gatwick airport. Being 1 stop away on the train to the terminal. I stayed in this hotel for 1 night as had early flight out from Gatwick. It was very clean and comfortable. Had everything you needed for a nights stay. Myself and my friend booked seperate rooms. Breakfast was provided at an additional cost although we didnt use this facility, so cant comment on the food side of things. But overall nice welcoming hotel and good price too. Will definitely recommend 👌 and will use again if flying from Gatwick.

As soon as we opened the front door we were shocked by the terrible smell. Our room thankfully had windows so we aired it out for two hours while we were out for supper. The room itself was very nicely renovated and spacious and the bed was comfortable. The bathtub/shower was slippery though and there weren’t grab bars. There was no fridge or microwave and when I asked for ice he said they don’t do that. I could walk to Lidl for that. There was no air conditioner and no screens on the windows. It would be terrible to stay there when the temps are above 20c and when the mosquitos would be a factor. I would check around. The area itself is great for an overnight flying through Gatwick as there are lots of dining options within walking distance.
