    "Although very small I knew this before booking, and it worked well for an overnight stay before an early flight."

    Modern, clean, quiet,great shower and good position in the airport

    None for me. I travel light but think a large suitcase would be a problem in the cabin

    at the terminal, good for very early flights as mine

    Good idea, but very small cabins...not for international travelers like me with few luggages. Also not good for claustrophobic people, I had no idea I'm one till I spent the night there. Wireless doesn't work as is advertized, would spend 10 more pounds and go to Marriott. Noisy too, wanted to sleep few hours before my next flight, but had been waken by people every 10-15 min, very noisy at evening time!

    "it was good and they did warn us it was very cosy for two just not how cosy and even though they knew there were two of us only gave one pillow"

    the shower was really good felt very invigorated afterwards

    a little cramped even for one person

    "Clean smart and comfortable."

    Clean, friendly, Smart and everything worked. Quick checkin after minor setback.

    Not many really, simply that I booked through booking.com but did not receive your referance, only the booking.com one, which meant I had to go through reception rather than the terminal. No major problems.

    "Clean...Great idea.....Excelent"

    Without question the best part of the stay was the shower. I am a retired airline pilot and my wife is a retired flight attendant. We have spent most of our lives traveling the USA and the world. Waking up to a good shower has always been a blessing. Never and I say again I say never have I had a better shower. The shower alone was more than worth the price of the room. In fact we will probably change our routing on our next trip to Europe just to take advantage of the Yotel LGW shower. I do hope all the showers in the Hotel are as good as room 43. Thanks very much......Peter McElroy

    The toilet flush button stuck in the flush position at 0330 and I had to go to the front desk to have it fixed in order to stop the water flow.

    "A fun place to stay at an airport, very convenient, comfortable bed and helpful staff."

    An excellent hotel for a very short stay alone.- No need to bother with shuttle buses. Peaceful.

    No bad points. Size of room was small but I knew about this when I booked Yotel so it was what I expected.

    from Falmouth UK, stayed on September 30, 2009

    "Overall my stay was excellent."

    I loved watching the TV at the end of the bed. The bed was so comfy and after travelling for a long time you just moulded into the mattress.

    I had trouble with flushing the toilet.

    from Zirl AT stayed on August 2, 2009

    "Fantastic - see above!"

    The staff was very friendly and attentive, the bed was the perfect size for myself and my 6-year old son and even though the room was tiny like we knew it would be, it still provided everything we needed - and the fact that it was within the airport was fantastic! Checking in the night before was a bonus too!

    When having a shower, the water seemed to collect in the bathroom for quite some time. Oh, and the floor seems a bit "hospital-like".

    "Made a smooth transition from our trip to our flight home. Got up after sound sleep, had shower and took lift to terminal!"

    Convenient, efficient, clean and quiet. Best shower head/pressure going and comfortable bed.

    Internet did not work.

    "I really liked my stay and would do so again."

    The hotel was very receptive to a criticism I gave about the booking process on Priceline and provided me with a complimentary drink upon arrival.

    The internet is really slow on the room TVs. It is pretty loud when people come and go in rooms around you, but I don't know how you can change that, since the rooms are so close together.

    "Great for solo travelers."

    The air conditioning could do with a little humidifying. Totally dried out my nose. My stay was before my flight.

    from Nice FR stayed on June 17, 2009

    "The cabin is 30 cm 1 ft short in width. Your site did not mention either the possibility to book for a few hours or the fact that a night booking is from 6pm to 8am 14hrs."

    Good bed, free internet access, in the airport itself.

    no room to open or store a suitcase, noise from corridor traffic.

    from Tortola VG stayed on June 14, 2009

    "Very adequate"

    Quick and easy booking and check in, clean room, helpful staff but best of all there were no hidden costs.

    Only bad point was that my computer logged in OK when I first used it but would never log in again even though I put in my booking number time and time again. You might want to check this with your IP expert

    "I really enjoyed my stay. My flight check-in desk was 2 minutes from the Yotel door and that's the first time that I've slept well the night before travelling abroad. Thank you! I'll be back. "

    Quiet clean, cosy. Excellent service & food, simple without fuss. Although TV wasn't working so well, the radio and jukebox including classical music was excellent.

    TV programmes signal was poor. Can you please provide a 'how-to' guide for the less confident with the technology?

    from Taber CA stayed on April 3, 2009

    "If i were to have an early departure out of gatwick again I would likely stay there for convenience sake. "

    1.right at the airport which allowed me to sleep a little longer not having to worry about transport to the terminal 2. bed was comfortable but could have been a little longer i am 191cm tall and found it a bit difficult to stretch out with the overhang of the wall at the foot of the bed 3. nice and quiet until the early morning rush of people getting ready to leave then there is the general noise of water running and bustling

    1. toilet was to close to the sink where it may cause some discomfort for heavy set people to sit 2. there was only one towel and no facecloth. there was no towel for the floor so once i was done showering i am walking barefoot outside the shower room which is the bathroom onto the room entrance where all the shoe grime is, since there is nowhere else to get dressed. 3. my control for the internet wasn't working properly, the mouse feature was stuck in upward position, i am certain the front desk would have replaced it but i only wanted to check my email quickly and couldn't be bothered getting out of bed and getting dressed to go to the front desk for that, maybe a weekly check of such details would avoid inconveniencing the customers.

    "Am now using this hotel on all trips to that office for business."

    ease of check in and helpfullness of staff. Excellent choice of films and music, not normally available in hotels. FIlms choice fantastic, not 2 or 3 but 30 films! 2500 music tracks. All made the stay less boring.

    Room a little warm and took a while to cool down.

    "exceptional, had great sleep. "

    clean, fresh, easy to register and use, everything I needed in the space of one little cabin.

    would have prefereed a better reading light in the cabin. alarm clock had no instructions, so it was hit 'n miss. TV internet connection frustrating mouse was slow and frustrating

    "Complex Check in procedure Code we were provided with would not open door.. Rooms/cabins too small for two people ...no privacy for taking showers or going to the toilet... "

    Comfortable bed...convenient if flying from Gatwick on an early morning flight. reasonably priced.

    Could not open the door at reception with the code provided?? ...then twice we could not enter the room/cabin with the keycard provided. Also rooms too small for two people , did not realise how small the rooms/cabins actually were...the cabins are only really suitable for a stopover for a single person.

    "Très pratique mais plus à recommander lorsque l'on a quelques heures d'attentes de transit la lumière naturelle et l'espace manquent pour s'y sentir bien au-delà de quelques heures"

    Un personnel accueillant et souriant Une localisation parfaite pour un transit en attente dans l'aéroport Un prix très abordable

    La chambre est encore plus petite que sur les photos; on s'y sent vraiment à l'étroit et il n'y a pas de place pour les valises La luminosité un peu violette reste très artificielle: il manque une lumière naturelle
