Very easy to get to by bus from Gatwick station or short walk from Horley station. Nice pub and Horley town walkable for food and drink. Clean, quiet, comfortable rooms, staff helpful and lots of advice before we arrived for how to get there, parking options, taxis to Gatwick etc. Well priced for accommodation convenient for Gatwick.

Nice hotel, convenient for the airport. However the reception isn't open 24/7 and they didn't leave us enough soap and shampoo in the room for two people, and we couldn't ask for more. There was also an emergency exit with a green light in the room that was on the whole night, very hard to sleep when there's a green light shining the whole night...

This Guest house is run by a family who obviously care. We stayed only one night to "crash" between flights, our room was modern and spotlessly clean. The location is quiet and only a 30 minute taxi ride to Gatwick airport. I enjoyed my morning stroll through the village while waiting to go on the rest of our journey, a refreshing break from the hustle of travelling.

Was just okay

Hotel needs a bit of a spruce up. Pictures online don't look like the actual rooms on hotels.com. bathrooms looked beautiful in pictures but just very plan and basic in actual sight. Very dated.

Good hotel and good service

The hotel was very convenient to horley train station and gatwick airport. Being 1 stop away on the train to the terminal. I stayed in this hotel for 1 night as had early flight out from Gatwick. It was very clean and comfortable. Had everything you needed for a nights stay. Myself and my friend booked seperate rooms. Breakfast was provided at an additional cost although we didnt use this facility, so cant comment on the food side of things. But overall nice welcoming hotel and good price too. Will definitely recommend 👌 and will use again if flying from Gatwick.

It was a place to stay the night before my flight from Gatwick. It is very convenient, a short walk from train station. The bus to the Airport is a 2 minute walk away and runs regularly

As soon as we opened the front door we were shocked by the terrible smell. Our room thankfully had windows so we aired it out for two hours while we were out for supper. The room itself was very nicely renovated and spacious and the bed was comfortable. The bathtub/shower was slippery though and there weren’t grab bars. There was no fridge or microwave and when I asked for ice he said they don’t do that. I could walk to Lidl for that. There was no air conditioner and no screens on the windows. It would be terrible to stay there when the temps are above 20c and when the mosquitos would be a factor. I would check around. The area itself is great for an overnight flying through Gatwick as there are lots of dining options within walking distance.
