8/10 Good
"Good location and nice hotel. Needs some work though, shower didn't work properly and both the bathroom door and main door has no lock. The stay was fine for 8 hours before the flight. Priced pretty well and free parking! Happy with that part. Hotel did a great job of sorting the fire alarm that went off at 7am. Got it sorted within a few minutes. Happy with that too."

Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport

Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport

10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely perfect to our needs, location to easy access to the departures area of the airport. The room was amazingly clean and presentable from the moment we went in. The shower room/bathroom was really nice too. However you did have to wipe dry everything after having a shower due to the design of the shower head location, as water splashes everywhere! but don’t let this put you off! A very pleasant sleep in a very clean well made bed having fresh linen also. All in all a very nice stay."

Royal Wells Hotel

Royal Wells Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"We had a lovely time at the Royal Wells. The rooms were spotlessly clean and nicely furnished with all the amenities you would need for a comfortable stay and the hotel also has a working lift. It has a calm atmosphere and is perfectly located with proximity to the town from where all the shops and restaurants are within easy reach. But for me what made our stay particularly special was the professional, efficient and warm welcome of the staff in reception and in the restaurant each day to whom I want to say a big thank you."

"Very nice place to be and the location was great for us. The staff are all very cheerful and happy to help. Buffet breakfast was good too although we never did get our fried eggs. My only real problem was the hotel was very hot both in the room and the bar area."
