We stayed here for a dinner dance run by our social club and the event, meal and venue were really good although they need to organise somewhere else for the smokers to stand other than just outside the door.

The room and the bathroom were ok, but smelled of old smoke which was vaguely nasty. Otherwise it was clean, pleasant and comfortable.

Breakfast was a complete shambles and they seemed to be unaware of the numbers of people who were staying at the hotel which was odd. We had to collar someone and ask for tea and coffee after waiting quite a while - and then there was no breakfast on the buffet.

Breakfast, along with the strange man who kept knocking on our door and trying to clean our room well before our checkout time made this a disappointing experience in all!!

Charming hotel that also has plenty of function.

Old English grounds and outer facade, yet maintains modern rooms and conveniences such as: TV with clock, High speed internet (xtra fee, but fast), room service, quality bathroom and spacious room.

Bus transportation on regular schedule to/from Gatwick airport (2.50 pounds each way).

My stay was for a 2 night business trip and I was quite comfortable at this hotel. Would stay again if in same area!!

Stayed at this hotel for a one night 'stay and fly' package. The hotel room was undoubtabley one of the most run down I ever stayed in. Smelt of smoke, dirty bathrom and very cramped - also took a good 5 minute walk to get to the lobby!

The general impression was that this room was in need of a revamp and quickly.

The rest of the hotel was fine, good breakfast and communial area and
parking straightforward.Be warned though that the airport buses back to the hotel only run once an hour in the evening so can end up waiting a long time to get back to your car.

Have stayed previously booking through Holiday Extras but booked direct this time and got a room in the Club area which was nicer and has internet access and coffee/tea machine in a small lounge. Reception ok and room was fine but tired, we ate in the bar as the restaurants seemed expensive - basic pub meals but tasty. Grounds are a nice bonus if you arrive early to take advantage of them, but the health club is disjointed from the rooms and a trek in the outside air following a swim.

The shuttle is £2.50 per person, each way - we didn't buy a return as the frequency was not very good. Ended up getting taxi back as 1 hour between pick ups - which cost us £11. This does add on to the expense - room was about £109, but for the peace of mind of being close to Gatwick before a morning flight and parking included we try to look at it as an extension to the holiday.
