Hilton London Gatwick Airport

Hilton London Gatwick Airport

10/10 Excellent
"We had an overnight stay before flying on an early morning flight. The room was large. The king size bed was very comfortable and the bathroom/shower was fabulous. The hotel was very convenient to the South terminal at Gatwick. We almost wished we could stay on another night instead of catching our flight lol"
