If you’re looking for a base to easily explore London or escape the drudgery and expense of an airport hotel at Gatwick, then this is the place for you. I arrived quite late at night but check in was a breeze and I was soon settled in a cozy but airy room with some very classy, thoughtful touches. An en-suite shower and toilet were the biggest and best surprise. The room also came with a powerful fan which was a godsend in the stifling heat of the hottest night of the year. All in all, a brilliant night’s stay in what some may see as a not so attractive part of London but which I heartily recommend.
