My recent stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The location is excellent for easy access to Gatwick Airport, and the swimming pool was a hit with the kids. However, the dining experience was quite disappointing as the service was painfully slow, and one of our orders got lost completely. While the room facilities were satisfactory, the overall service in the restaurant left much to be desired.

I had a mix of experiences at this hotel. The location is fantastic, so close to the airport, which made my travel plans easier. The rooms were spacious, but I found them a bit too hot and in need of better maintenance. The service overall was good, with staff being very attentive. However, the dining options left a lot to be desired, as the quality of the food was lacking. The price felt a bit high given the condition of the facilities.

The hotel serves as a decent option for families and offers proximity to Gatwick Airport, making it convenient for travel. Rooms were spacious and modern, but the heat overnight was uncomfortable due to ineffective air conditioning and condensation issues. While the staff were friendly and accommodating, the lingering maintenance issues, particularly with the lifts and pool, were disappointing.
