Just a short drive from the terminals at Gatwick is this three star hotel with a friendly staff.
The ibis Styles London Gatwick Airport is a budget-friendly hotel located just a short drive from Gatwick Airport. A paid shuttle bus service is available for easy access to the terminals between 4:00 AM and 11 PM. There is parking on-site at a £25 daily fee.
Its bright, contemporary rooms have the bare necessities like flat-screen TVs, complimentary Wi-Fi, tea and coffee facilities, and private bathrooms but are a bit small for the industry standard. The windows are triple-glazed and so the rooms are relatively quiet.
The hotel's restaurant and bar serve a variety of options but reviews about the quality of food are mixed. It's convenient but it's not the best restaurant near Gatwick Airport. On the flip side, it's relatively inexpensive. One standout feature is the availability of 24/7 pizza for late-night cravings​.
The breakfast buffet is well-regarded but all eyes are on the Fiat 500 in the middle of the hall while other quirky aircraft-themed elements make it akin to a small museum.
Other amenities at the hotel include the hotel meeting space and a gym.
Overall, the ibis Styles London Gatwick Airport is best suited for short stays and early flights - it's convenient but basic.
Check-in is available from 15:00 and check-out is required by 12:00.
