Top Henley-on-Thames Hotel Reviews

Hyatt Place London Heathrow Airport

Hyatt Place London Heathrow Airport

8/10 Good
"Convenient and comfortable for a 1-night stay prior to early departure from LHR Terminal 5 the following day. Check-in took far longer than on previous visits.The queue snaked back to the hotel entrance doors and there were only 2 check-in "desks" open. A taxi - which turned out to be a "private transfer" - was arranged for the following morning. It came on time but then took a very circuitous route to Terminal 5. The cost (£15) was probably in line with standard charges but would not have been justified for a more direct route."
