  • "The bar is usually understaffed and you can wait a long time."
  • "The staff are slow, rude ignorant and not very customer friendly."
  • "The staff weren't particularly friendly, but nothing terrible that would prompt me to write a review. However, a week later a fine of £100 changed all of that."
  • "The manager took the salt and pepper and serviettes from our table while we ate our main course giving the impression we were being rushed to leave."

  • "It was a reasonable price and filling."

  • "Evening meal was fantastic."

Cons:

  • "The roast sirloin of beef was over cooked, cut in thick slabs and chewy."
  • "Beer £6.20 a pint and was flat, food was luke-warm, with portion sizes small for the prices that you pay."
  • "The steak wasn't cut and just plonked between two bits of bread."
  • "This food should not be sold to humans, three cumberland sausages that were so over cooked they resembled dog chews."
  • "Starter I had was supposed to be an olive tapanade on bruchetta, at a price of £6.19, but what I got was halved olives, a couple of cherry tomatoes on a piece of bread, not worth the price."
  • "Goose fat roast potatoes with garlic and herb were dry, no sign of the menu promise."
  • "The food was underwhelming and certainly didn't feel special."

Cons:

  • "When managed to get something to drink 3x sprit drinks £18?!"
  • "We did get overcharged as we got the £8 pie on a Wednesday night and were charged full price."
  • "To charge £8 for a bit of bread and old salad is embarrassing."
  • "Oh, and they charged us £40 each for that!!!"
  • "Prices are to high for the standard of food, just a standard quality like any old chain pub tbh."
  • "Expensive for fried and grilled pub food."
  • "Overpriced and overdone, very poor quality."

  • "The cake stand was in such poor condition i had to hide it under the table cloth."
  • "Only knocked off a star because the table we had inside was a bit wobbly and there was a bit of a buggy cobweb problem in the corner."
  • "The only thing letting it down was atmosphere. Not many people around and staff conversations easily heard."
  • "The atmosphere in the bar was dingy."
  • "Also the toilets resemble a pub from the 1970s with plaster and tiles falling off of the walls."
  • "Visited the toilets on arrival, and you can gauge a place by how clean they’re, these were filthy."

Accommodation

  • "Stayed here 13/2/22, lovely sleep, beds are to comfy."

  • "1st time at this premier hotel and really found it easy to find. Parking great and room lovely with all you need."
  • "Best Airport hotel ever, Great food."
  • "Best Airport hotel ever, because it is so close to where you need to be at Gatwick, yet tucked away in what feels like a rural location."

Cons:

  • "Wouldn't even have breakfast this morning...good god no way!"
  • "We had a family room that was so close, ppl were actually coming out for a cool down and a cigarette practically outside our window."
  • "One of the most annoying things however is that I was woken up so early, about 3am I’d say, to really loud stomping sounds above my room."
  • "The one thing that lets this hotel down, and the reason for 4 stars not 5, is the lack of Air Conditioning... It was unbearable... Tiny little fan that was in the room was useless."
  • "Got a parking fine today after having a meal at the Gatwick Manor."
  • "Just watch out for the automated 3hr parking limit with a hefty fine if you overstay your welcome, and uneven floors in places."
  • "We then waited over an hour for our mains to arrive."
