“This property strikes me as a solid choice if Gatwick proximity tops your list, and the easy train access to Central London is a definite plus. I appreciate the family-friendly vibe, complete with that always-welcome indoor pool, but it's the Shark Club Gastro Bar that really stands out with its novel touchscreen ordering.”

Really good Stay

generous roomample parkingattentive manageroutdated equipment
The room size impressed me. It felt quite generous. I appreciated the plentiful car park space available. Anastasija, the guest manager, really enhanced my visit. Her attentiveness was commendable.
The gym equipment seemed somewhat outdated, and the televisions within the gym did not display live tv. A reconfiguration would definitely improve the experience.

The double bed offered excellent comfort and contributed to restful nights. A recent refurbishment was evident, lending a fresh aesthetic. The room size accommodated my needs without feeling cramped.

The swimming pool presented as clean. I noticed the option to order diverse styles of eggs during breakfast. The staff demonstrated helpfulness when asked for directions to nearby transit options.
Location

The hotel's nearness to public transport aided my exploration. A short taxi ride connected me to Gatwick. Three Bridges train station, a fifteen-minute walk away, facilitates travel into London.
