Convenient hotel for LHR T5
Convenient hotel for LHR T5. Clean, comfortable and well equipped. Good bar / restaurant connected to the hotel. Walls are thin so can be noisy.

Disappointed
The food on the Aviator Restaurant was terrible. My steak appeared to have been cooked sometime beforehand and reheated and therefore had the taste and consistency of lightly cooked carpet. My partner described their Double Decker burger as worse than McDonalds

Good & convenient for overnight stay close to LHR
Small but adequate room for single person with kettle, tea and coffee. Good sports bar and service. Quite noisy with sounds from adjacent rooms and corridor. I struggled to get the room warm in winter. Good value for the price and would use again.

Close to Airport
It was a nice location close to the airport the only downside was they didnt tell us we would have to pay for parking and less than 12 hours at 18 pounds was a little extortionate it would have been nice if they would have told us this.

Thistle T5
Last minute booking because of shambolic security in T5. All good except being charged £8 to get gate code to Heathrow pods.
