Now, don't book here if you are planning to sight see around London, as there is nothing nearby except for Heathrow.
We booked here as we were on our way back to Canada and had taken the day before to travel closer to the airport since our flight was fairly early.
After hopping off the bus with our suitcases, a 747 flew overhead and the entire street shook, I was worried about getting sleep. Our room ended up facing Heathrow's runways, but with glass a foot thick, I couldn't hear anything! I even pressed my ear up against it.
The interior of the hotel looks fairly modern, with star trek elevators and our room was also gorgeous, with the window running the length of the wall, we sat up for awhile watching the silent planes take off to their far away destinations.
Good TV, nice washroom amenities including a sewing kit! Complimentary bottled water and in-room coffee and tea station. The bed was really comfortable as well.
We made our way down to the restaurant for dinner, the food was good, but fairly pricey. I enjoyed a vegetarian pizza, while my fiancé munched down a shrimp linguini.
I think the best part about our stay was the 10 pound breakfast buffet that was included in our room booking. So for 5 quid each, we ate as much sausage, bacon, potatoes and tomatoes as we could stomach. Very a-typical English breakfast spread, but it was good!
I really enjoyed our stay here and upon check out we learned you also are privy to free lifts on the shuttle buses from the hotel to the airport. read more
