A basic but clean room and bathroom, comfortable bed. No aircraft noise .. best thing is the Pod into Terminal 5. ! Always stay here when flying early morning from T 5

Clean and comfortable room.Easy POD access from LHR 5.Beer and snacks overpriced.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Room was very comfortable and the bathroom/shower etc. all adequate. The hotel is very close to Heathrow T5 and the pod journey is worth it but a bit pricey (£8+ pp). If you have a lot of luggage, ensure you ask for ground floor room; there are no lifts!
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Room was small but fine for one person. Very clean. Staff were extremely helpful. However be aware there is no lift.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

A lovely hotel, but we did have a long walk to our room and there was carpet on the floor so it made it very hard to pull our cases. The restaurant was very good and had a great choice. Lovely Staff in the restaurant and very helpful. For me, the pillars were a little bit hard, but some people like firmer pillars I like soft ones. Loved the pod rides over from terminal five. So easy to get to terminal five for our flight. If I was flying out from terminal five again, I will definitely be staying in this hotel

Great stay with the most comfortable pillows and bed. Used the pod to get to the airport in the morning; great experience. Restaurant and bar great. We were a party of 12 and able to find a table. Good all round experience. Thank you
