    "Liked the location, useful for Gatwick airport. Added convenience with airport shuttle to and from airport and very efficient. Very pleased with the booking" (108849982)

    Nice, clean modern bathroom. Double room was very adequate and light

    Restaurant or cafe would have been useful on the premises.

    "Would certainly use again, it is a good option for Gatwick hotel & car park,evening meal fine, didn't have breakfast as away too early, note that it can take 15-20 minutes for pick up/drop off if minibus needs to go to both South & North terminal for passengers" (97776088)

    Convenient for airport, staff friendly, car park included, good value

    "Not as good as previous visits , the price has gone up but the room quality has slipped!!" (107790407)

    Good pick up service from airport

    Have stayed here every year since hotel opened and have to say the bedroom we have been given the last 2 times was not good. One of the beds is only childs size and not good enough for 2 adults, especially as the price for this room was the same as for much larger rooms with bigger beds. We made this booking in December 08 and would have expected something bigger and better, especially as we are annual customers. It was not worth the rate charged!!

    "The hotel in general is reasonably comfortable, well decorated and very clean. I would happily stay at this hotel again. However I cannot recommend the Economy / Attic bedrooms due to lack of headroom, far less headroom than expected." (107494616)

    Clean. Well maintained.

    BEDROOM; Attic room was very restrictive in height, unable to stand up in much of the room, unable to stand at toilet, shower very small & little or no water pressure at times, roof window blinds were ineffective. BREAKFAST; Small portions & limited choice.

    Very comfortable beds and good facilities, transfer to and from airport excellent, piping hot water, good value for money paid.

    Slight confusion over breakfast, cereal and toast classed as continental breakfast but I managed to persuade them otherwise.

    Luckily the owner had a vacant room. Good breakfast.

    The hotel had no record of our on-line booking despite us having the confirmation reference and the pin code. I will book hotels online again but I will not use Active Hotels again.

    "We were met within 15 minutes of phoning for transfer from Gatwick South. The reception was excellent and though there are no restaurant facilities for an evening meal transport was offered to their sister hotel's newly opened restaurant. We were also given information of other restaurants nearby. The room was comfortable, clean and there were nice little touches such as fresh flowers on the dressing table and a box of tissues as well as all the usual toiletries. The freshly cooked breakfast was excellent as was the transfer back. We would certainly use this hotel again and have already recommended it to friends. " (107148669)

    we paid for B&B but did not get the breakfast. we were told we were leaving one hour earlier than the restuarant opens, and there was no alternative given such as a breakfast box. this we found very bad and not found this in previous hotels we have stayed in. when booking the room on the internet it did not say that we would not get breakfast before 6am, we left at 5.15am.

    Excellent staff. They were very helpful in assisting me with my heavy over sized luggage. Breakfast was excellent and fast.

    Room at the top attic was a bit short (ceiling) for tall people. We kept hitting our heads. Overall the room was very cute and clean.

    The loft conversion room was very small although if only staying overnight it was adequate as it had a double bed & shower although as the shower was in the room I would have preferred it in a separate room.

Breakfast was fine and staff very helpful and professional.But we didn't like the loft room. Head room not adequate when trying to prepare for a business meeting.Too hot then too cold when skylight opened. Just a personal thing but would avoid this particular room. Definately recommend this hotel though and would consider it first if further meeting required a stay by Gatwick airport." (97644553)

    Very clean and modern. Staff were very helpful and professional.

    We stayed in the loft conversion....which was too small to stand up in comfortably and too hot.
