Good place to stay overnight for early Gatwick flights. (107933348)

positive comments Staff friendly, efficient, good restaurant attached. Room clean, bed comfortable and many pillows, extra blankets available. Shuttle to Gatwick on time, runs frequently and is inexpensive.
negative comments Walls very thin, can hear normal conversation from next room. Bathroom grout needed some maintenance, pristine at top but black at tub/wall intersection.

With the exception of the lounge/restaurant service, the overall experience was good. I would stay here again if the occasion arose. (107215427)

positive comments Check-in was efficient. Shuttle bus to Gatwick was good.
negative comments Directions to the hotel, while adequate for those familiar with London, were a little confusing. Service in the lounge/restaurant in the evening was extremely poor.

We asked for a wakeup call at 5am since could not get the TV to work. It did not come. When we checked out, desk attendent claimed out phone was off the hook. Too late to go and check. Luckily we woke up anyway. (97380508)

positive comments Evening food in the resturant was good.
negative comments Room needs a regular alarm clock/radio. The alarm on the TV would not set. We spoke to some gentlemen the next morning and they could not get it to work either. Menu tells you to press alarm and then a number. But when you press the number it goes to a channel. Also bed was not attached to headboard or maybe heavy enough. Tended to slide if you leaned back wrong.

Thomas from Devonshire, BM (Mature couple) 30 August 2008

Didn`t like the place at all - for me it felt seedy, ill kempt, I regret my choice, normally I find the Best Western name to be representative of a much higher standard (97243518)

positive comments Proximity to airport
negative comments Insufficient towels in bathroom - when I pointed this out the next morning, I was peremptorily informed that I should have read the information pamphlet to find the location of additional towels hidden in the room - Poorly done, not good enough by a long way. Towels belong in the bathroom where you can find them upon emerging from the shower, & they should be thick , not thin like paper towels. Beds worn out, need replacing. Hotel needs renovation Garish bright lighting in the bar & lounge

positive comments Adequate space to open luggage; quiet; convenient to airport with adequate transport to airport; comfortable bed; clean; staff was very helpful in checking flight times.

Made our last night in England a comfortable stay and enabled us to get to the airport early the next morning without worries. (107246983)

positive comments Very convenient to the airport, clean rooms were very comfortable, Nice view out large window over countryside and allowed us to watch the planes.
negative comments Walls were a bit thin, we could hear people talking in the room next to us. (We were put in a room with an adjoining door, this may be why.)

positive comments Great family room set up. Every effort was made to accomodate us with great success. Restaurant & bar & breakfast lounge open long periods. Good coffee/teas set up in room. Comfortable beds. Breakfast excellent. Dinner, fair, but nobody goes to England for the cuisine. Overall, good experience
negative comments Not being able to use Euros.

What we wanted (107119492)

positive comments Very efficient staff and good restaurant. Even though we were close to the airport the room was wonderfully silent.
negative comments We used the hotel parking for our flight from Gatwick. On return, transport back to hotel was slow and car parking was tight and expensive - we mis-understood that parking was not included is room cost.

john from Ballyclare, GB (Mature couple) 29 July 2008

Adequate. (108043421)

positive comments The room and facilities were sufficient for an overnight stay. The bus service from the airport to the hotel in the evening and return in the morning were good.
negative comments The hotel was very close to a major ringroad around London. Our room overlooked the ringroad with the result that from approximately 6am the traffic noise woke both myself and my wife and we could not get back to sleep again. For the price paid I would have expected the breakfast to be included.

negative comments The Hotel need to find a new laundry, as whoever does your laundry wash'sit with the laundry from an Indian Resurant. The Towels are dirt looking and smell of Indian Spices. The Bed linen also smelt the same.

Tim from Gatwick, GB (Solo business traveller) 26 April 2008

Our client normally stays at the premier inn but they where full so had to result to Moat House. She said the stay was fair but would like us to book her into the premier inn in the future as it is more appealing and welcoming for solo guests. (97160243)

Elizabeth from melbourne, AU (Mature couple) 24 April 2008

General impression was good but lack of sleep before an international flight made our stay stressful. We were very disappointed given the high cost of the room. (97234166)

positive comments The convenience and cleanliness
negative comments The airconditioning was not working and therefore the room was extremely hot and we were unable to sleep at all. Very frustrating.
Good
Sandra from Toledo, US (Family with older children) 22 April 2008

We planned on using the hotel as a stop over for visiting London, there is a charge for the shuttle bus back and forth to the airport so that added up quickly because we traveled to the airport to get the train into the city. I wasn't aware of the fee until after the reservation was made I might have looked around more to find a hotel with a free shuttle. The room was clean and served our purpose even if it was small. (97016030)

negative comments The room was small, a tight fit for 3 adults

The airport shuttle is not free, you should state this. (97761952)

positive comments Close to airport, Shuttle service, Moderate price
negative comments I was charged for watching three movies that I did not see because I made some errors with the remote control. I had to argue to have one movie removed from my bill but was still asked to pay for two movies even though i checked in at 11 PM and checked out at 4:30 AM!? More importantly on the TV you have a message saying your charge will appear as room service on your bill This infact is not true. The charge appears as Rome service: video 02. Had I known I would not have requested a movie.

When we booked the Best Weston Hotel we were worried about what it would be like, not having talked to anyone who had stayed there, but we were really pleased with our choice. There were quite a lot of people waiting to check in when we arrived but the receptionists were very quick and efficient. The restaurant was very good value for money and the food was excellent.
