We recently spent the night here before an early morning flight. The hotel was easy to find and the mid stay car park where our car was left for the two weeks we were on holiday was just a few mins away. The check in was easy and the room was clean and well furnished. We had a package that... More

The rooms are good with choice of pillows. However, the food is not good, typical mass market fare with expensive wine. The staff are friendly and helpful(unlike most staff at airport!). The bus to the airport is not free!

Hotel is near to the airport, that's its selling point. There is nothing wrong with it as an airport hotel. But many people and most people staying just one night so a very high turn-over of customers. Service levels are OK, although the girl at reception lacked experience with foreigners. Restaurant is acceptable, but probably expensive for what it is.... More

I got in at midnight. The staff could not find my reservation (though the bartender managed to find it when I bought a coke). It held me up for a long time when all I wanted was to go to sleep. The rooms are fine (though you can't really adjust the temperature because you have to keep your room key... More

Stopped here for one night before an early flight from Stansted. It is all you need....basic, no luxuries, but clean and comfortable. The room was a good size with some storage space and comfortable beds. The bathroom was also a good size with good shower. Both were very clean.

You get 20 minutes free parking outside the hotel, be warned, they will keep you waiting at reception so if you can, get a member of your party to take your bags to the room to save time and money. The rooms are very basic with comfy beds. The staff are all very polite. The restaurant is basic and the... More

Didn't expect too much from this hotel. Ultimately we stayed because the room and parking worked out cheaper than just parking in it's own right. Room and facilities clean enough and fairly well maintained. Staff quite helpful though insufficient in number. Drinks and food hideously expensive. Beer £4, burger and chips £13. There is a McDonald's over the road which... More

Briefly: Check-in queues but well-mannered and competent staff (understaffed). Room: very good. Bar: as reception but expensive (understaffed). Breakfast: head for the airport. Nutshell: great staff but not enough. Room fine. Drinks pricey. Breakfast: why bother if it is poor standard? As I one night stop for an early getaway it is the place to stay but . . .... More

Stopped here overnight. Quick check in. Room had a good standard of decor and was spotlessly clean. Option of a soft of firm pillow. Note that the rooms all seem to have a shower, but no bath. Can't comment on food as I didn't eat here. As others have pointed out, the '£3 each way' shuttle is rather overpriced -... More

The reception staff are polite and efficient. The rooms are modern, comfortable and clean. The hotel is located approximately 5 minutes bus ride from Stansted airport and the bus, which costs £3 per person, delivers you from the front door of the hotel to the departures terminal. The service runs every 30 minutes and the first bus leaves at 04.30.... More
