Just avoid at all cost. The only upside is that is close to the airport. The place was just terribly busy and the staff not enough to assist the long queues of clients waiting to be served. They advertise £15 parking which is a myth, I paid £30 to park for 9 hours. The reception had not explained that you need to give registration car number, so I was stopped in the gates and asked to pay £ 25 even before getting to the parking area. Just a nightmare. The second bed was not made on arrival, being very tired at 10 pm we waited 1 hour for the bed to be made before we go to sleep. Finally and disgustingly there was urine residues on the toilet seat. For a price of £ 340 per night just not fit for purpose, never returning there.

Dissatisfied customers
The hotel facilities were very good except we had a bad experience in the restaurant in the evening. We waited for approximately an hour for our food and it wasn’t until a waiter realised we didn’t have food that they had to reorder based on losing the order. Then when we waited to lay there was nobody available to accept our payment. They seemed to go to everyone else and ignore us. Shame because we have previously used this hotel and restaurant with no problems.

Great location just a few steps from the airport. Dropped off at the front door easy check in. Would definitely use if you have an early flight.

Very nice airport hotel. Quiet, clean and steps from the terminal. Food expensive though, I paid £5.50 for some tiny cuts of bread.

Poor front of house staff
We arrived at 1am. Having stayed at the hotel the previous week and received excellent service we were met by a non communicative unfriendly member of staff. Arrived at room to find sofa bed not ready for my child. Back to reception and advised room not made up for 3. Bluntly told the bed was there we just needed sheets which would be sent to room. No apology. I made it clear I also expected that someone would assemble the bed and make it up. Same person arrived a short time after and without words or any apology made bed up and left. I know that errors happen with rooms in busy hotels but I would expect some sort of communication and a welcome from a front of house member of staff and an apology when something is not correct

Good stay but WHY are the toilet doors that way? Just a swinging door that doesn’t latch and a huge gap at the bottom? People need privacy in the toilet for crying out loud!

The bathroom hand held shower was not good at all. Needed more pressure. Also bathroom plug hole had to be removed to allow the water to drain.

Shower had no pressure and the room was freezing. Mediocre breakfast. Also it’s at the airport so most people don’t hang around just want something to suit around flights. The gym only opens at 8am!! Which means no gym visit if you’ve got a morning flight. Not worth the money.
