Hotel was fine as a base the night before early flight. Continental breakfast included but lacking options due to not being restocked regularly

I arrived at about 1 am after a long flight and was kept waiting at reception for several (maybe 5) minutes while the 2 receptionist continued to do their admin work and chatting. . The check-in process was very unfriendly... Not impressed at all

Excellent location, literally on Luton airport runway! 10-12min walk away from airport. Breakfast was included and the selection was very good. Also had takeaway option for travellers which was an excellent thoughtful gesture. Will definitely stay again if flying out of Luton.

We only had a short stay after a late evening flight arrival and then an early flight home in the morning. The hotel was a short walk from the airport. The receptionist was very helpful and friendly. We didn’t give ourselves much time to eat breakfast at 6am but they provided paper bags so you could take some items to eat on the go. Would definitely stay here again.

Even though I arrived after midnight the receptionist was very welcoming with not just me but also many other people who were arriving off the late flights. It was a horrible wet night so it was nice to get a warm welcome. She enquired about my departure time too to make sure I could avail of breakfast

Easy to walk to from Luton Airport. Handy for the bus from Luton Parkway. Love that breakfast starts at 04.00 so you can grab something before an early flight.
