Advantages: Location and wide range of rooms Disadvantages: Older parts of the hotel need updating
...a night at the Gatwick Hilton when I made a 'flying' visit to the UK to visit my elderly aunt in hospital after she had fallen and broken her hip.
I needed a bed for the night as my flight landed at 9pm and I did not fancy driving up to Hertfordshire at night.
Having stayed at the Gatwick Hilton on many occasions over the last 15 years, and having seen it through many of its refurbishments, I felt it was about time for a review.

Advantages: Walking distance to the Airport Disadvantages: Poor Quality for the Hilton name
...have previously stayed in the Hilton in Bahrain and found it very pleasant. Well that is where the good part of the story ends.
We arrive to the front desk. Of all the times that I have stayed at a Hilton Hotel I have found that the bell boys would be there to greet you and basically snatch your luggage out of your hand as you are checking in. Well not this time. The only bell boys ( I suppose they were bell boys) that we seen were sitting down ...

Advantages: close to airport, comfortable Disadvantages: expensive, dark
I stayed in the Gatwick Hilton for 2 nights; 23rd March and 1st April. As a general overview I wasn't too impressed with the acclaimed Hilton hotel.
There was a large group of us (about 30) and we all entered the hotel via the North terminal entrance. This was good as you could walk through a sheltered walkway to the main reception. The reception area itself had about 6 different stations that could have been used for check-in but only 2 of them ...

Gatwick Hilton Review ofHilton London Gatwick Airport, Londonby
sylviesinc
Advantages: Sounds prestigious Disadvantages: Not good value for money
...net and discovered the Gatwick Hilton for £139 for a double room. It sounded a lot but this also included 15 days parking, which would have cost around £70-80 on its own, and we didn't require breakfast that early in the morning. So, £139 for the room and parking seemed like a small price to pay - after all, it was the Hilton and big stars and VIPs stay there don't they? They advertised a playstation in the room too, which sold the idea to my other ...

Advantages: Right on the Airport doorstep and connected via walkways. Disadvantages: NOT cheap!
...Consider signing up for the Hilton Honors card before you go. Its free but will enable you to get to check in or out quicker than other people.
BOTTOM LINE:
Good Point: You can walk to the airport in about 5 mins so NO fiddleing about with getting curtsey buses!
Bad Point: It'll cost a bit more than other hotels but the convenience of the location could well make up for it. ...

gatwick hilton Review ofHilton London Gatwick Airport, Londonby
sharay
Advantages: great for the airport Disadvantages: it's so large you can get lost
...husband stayed at the gatwick hilton last september ,the night before we flew out to another hilton in egypt .
normally when we have to fly from gatwick (about a 3 and a half hours drive from where we live) we drive down and fly out the same day but we'd got a bit fed up with doing this as it meant hanging around the airport for far too long.
this time when we looked at booking airport parking we decided it would be nice to stay overnight, the ...
