Sofitel London Gatwick
Four star hotel with easy access to both terminals. With several restaurant and bars on site.
Our summary of Sofitel London Gatwick
The Sofitel London Gatwick is connected directly to the North Terminal by a covered walkway and within easy reach of the South Terminal via shuttle. The property is a perfect airport hotel and a short drive from local attractions like Crawley Town Hall and County Mall Shopping Centre. You can easily reach Central London on the train.
The rooms are fantastic and have everything necessary for a good stay. You can expect things such as plush bedding, soundproof windows, and well-appointed bathrooms, some even with baths in addition to showers. Superior rooms have runway views, a treat for aviation geeks. The 24-hour room service is a major perk.
On-site dining options include 4 restaurants, 2 bars, and the hot buffet breakfast served daily. With this amount of choice, you can be sure that any food you crave, you can find in at least one of the restaurants. The food is high class but that also means waiting times during peak hours may be longer than expected too.
The hotel has a fitness center which is limited and a bit dated.
For business guests, the 14 different meeting rooms that can accommodate up to 300 guests will likely fulfill all needs.
Pricing leans toward the premium side, something expected given its airport location​. Nonetheless, most guests find it to be worth the money.
The Sofitel London Gatwick is a premium choice for comfort, style, and proximity to the airport.

Popularhotels Lobby Talk brings you exclusive insights straight from the hotel staff. We've asked a number of carefully selected questions directly to the hotel team.
Where is the best place to park the car? We will arrive in the late afternoon.
We offer both onsite and offsite parking, depending on the length of time you need to store your car. When it comes to onsite parking you can park the car in our Sofitel overflow parking. However, there will be a parking fee according to the hours you leave your vehicle in our parking area. It is £12 for up to two hours, £17 for up to four hours and overnight £25 if you are a guest with us (£38 if a non-resident).
If you choose offsite parking your car will be taken off site on your arrival date and your car keys will be taken off. All of our parking packages are operated with Maple Manor Meet & Greet. If you are looking to add parking to an existing booking, then below are the additional costs for adding the package. 4 days parking is £60.00, up to 8 days parking is £80.00, up to 15 days parking is £100.00 and up to 21 days parking is £130.00.
What kind of breakfast is served and where in the hotel is it available?
Breakfast will be served at Le petit Reveur restaurant from 05:30 am till 10:30 am and this will be a full English breakfast.
Where is your hotel located in relation to the airport? Minutes of walking?
We are located in the Gatwick North Terminal. We have a direct tunnel that connects to the airport's north terminal. It takes 5-10 minutes to go through the tunnel to the north terminal. If you want to get to the South terminal, Gatwick has a free inter-terminal shuttle service 24 hours a day. Every 6 minutes, it will go across each terminal.
We need to eat in the evening, are there any good restaurants nearby you can recommend?
We have three restaurant options within the hotel – Le Petit Reveur, Vivre and Vanda.
These questions were asked in December 2024 and may be translated to English and partially summarized. The information may have changed since then, so please verify any important details directly with the hotel.
