Excellent
Excellent stay before catching an early flight next morning. Check in staff were lovely, had a trainee check us in and she was a credit to the hotel. Swift service but still very friendly and helpful. Sorted a taxi for the next morning for us too. Highly recommend

A very clean and friendly hotel to stay in. You wouldn't even know that you are so close to the planes coming in. You could see them land from a balcony from the bar. The bed is very comfortable. The ride in the pod make this stay more fun.

Don’t pay for the Pods
There’s only one door to get through to get to the pods and the code for that is #4545# Even if they change the code there’s no need to pay “per person” just pay for one person and sneak everyone else through, or go through the gate when someone else is, no one will stop you. Also there isn’t a lift at the hotel so ask for a room on the ground floor.

Stayed here overnight for an early flight. The room was clean and comfortable and was exactly what we expected. There is no drinking water provided in the rooms and the price at their kiosk is a bit extortionate but otherwise the hotel is as you’d expect for an airport hotel.

Early flight stopover
Stopover pre trip to Rome. We received a warm welcome, the room was well equipped and comfortable. Restaurant and bar were both very good and reasonably priced. The piece de la resistance was the pods to T5, fast efficient and much cheaper than a taxi. I can’t believe they are not mentioned in the hotel description. Thoroughly recommended

Our best visit so far
This is the 3rd time we have stayed at the Thistle and by far the best. We stayed in room 672 which is a suite and was huge, with 2 separate rooms and decent bathrooms. We ate in the bar but didn't go for the breakfast. And of course, the viewing area for the airport was fully open allowing us to spot planes, which is why we visited the hotel
