I recently stayed at Hookwood Lodge near London Gatwick. The self check-in process was smooth — the key was waiting in an envelope by the door, which made arrival easy and convenient. The room itself was clean, comfortable, and well stocked, with a very comfy bed that made for a good night’s sleep.
However, there were a few drawbacks. Parking was quite limited, and despite being advertised, there were no electric vehicle charging facilities available. Additionally, the tap water was undrinkable, which was disappointing.
Overall, a comfortable and convenient stay close to the airport, but a few improvements would make it much better.
