Top Gatwick Hotel Reviews

Sofitel London Gatwick

Sofitel London Gatwick

8/10 Good
"This is a really convenient hotel for flying out, was only there a few hours but it was spotless and well maintained and slightly cheaper than the Hilton at the south terminal. Room size is good. Had I not been travelling alone I’d have hung out at the bar as that looked nice. Possible downsides for other people are that many of the rooms will face a central atrium where reception / the bar is rather than your window facing outside, and the water in my room has clearly been previously opened by someone, but that’s near impossible for someone to spot and I’d definitely recommend."
