Stayed here a number of times and cannot fault the hotel. A warm welcome, easy check in, and early access to our room.
Hotel is within walking distance of the airport terminal, and breakfast was all you could ask for.
I would highly recommend this hotel.

All you need in an airport hotel
Friendly, informative staff at reception, clean, well-equipped room and proximity to the airport for an early morning flight meant that my 1-night stay was a good experience. The bathroom was a little small and the breakfast was basic but well executed and I was delighted that continental breakfast is available from 4am and a cooked breakfast from 6am. Very much appreciated

Great hotel
The staff at reception were very extremely welcoming and friendly, i arrived quite late so appreciated the prompt check in.
The room was incredibly quiet considering the location. It was also clean, cool, and very roomy, just a shame I was there for less than 12 hours so didn’t get a chance to fully appreciate it.

Quick stop
Had a late flight into Luton so made sense to stay the night and finish our long journey next day once we had a good night’s sleep a shower and some breakfast. All was very good and would definitely stay again. Staff were friendly, always a good thing.

Great stay
The hotel check was quick and easy. The staff were very helpful and polite. The rooms were perfect for what we needed and was a very nice short stay before an early flight. I liked how breakfast was laid out nice and early. The only thing I think could be improved is that I think there should be a bus shuttle available to and from the airport directly from the hotel. This would make the hotel 10/10
