Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Nice clean, spacious rooms, staff excellent, able to accommodate our two rooms next to each other without being asked (they did check first that's what we'd like!). We were leaving too early for a hot breakfast but the grab and go/express breakfast was good, fresh, and a wide selection. Safe car parking (£14) at front of hotel good.
We booked night before and night after flight at the hotel, good shuttle service to/from the airport. Rooms functionable, I liked having a soft and hard pillow choice, the reception and breakfast staff were really nice, polite and professional. We will stay again when we next fly from Stansted
Exactly what you need for an airport hotel. Shuttle bus is convenient and costs £4 per person, service is good, rooms are spacious and comfortable and breakfast is of a good standard.
It would be better if the WiFi details were given on arrival. Breakfast was OK but the bacon was overdone. There wasn't any guidance and you had to be quick or your breakfast would be cleared before you get back with a fresh cuppa
Id like a proper refund. Upon arrival the gentleman who had checked me in was the only employee willingly working. There was another female employee who refused to leave her separate non work conversation to help check in guests at the hour of 1am. Upon entering my room it’s absolutely filthy. Blood stains, random stains are just grimey overall filth. The audacity to charge outrageous rates with no ground to stand on.

Overnight stay before flight
We stayed overnight due to our very early flight the next day. Didn’t love that their shuttles are only twice an hour to/from the airport. The rest was as you’d expect. Not the most comfortable, but a reasonably priced, perfectly acceptable stop while in transit.
The Initial check in experience was excellent due to the warmn as of the staff this was reflected by the bar staff
The room was dated the 2 nd bed was a sofa bed with a thin uncomfortable mattress and the ac was very noisy

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The family room had a sofa bed as the second bed, with the world’s thinnest mattress, so uncomfortable and not fit for purpose.
The cleaning in the room wasn’t great, there was an opened milk left on the coffee tray which makes me think it wasn’t cleaned at all.
The staff at the front desk were lovely and very helpful.
Grab and go breakfast wasn’t great, a bacon or sausage bap would make a massive difference
