Staff member was friendly and explained everything clearly. He helped me with my luggage which was nice as the stairs are quite steep and narrow. Room was good but bathroom was tiny, I thought I had booked shared bathroom but had my own but there was no room to manoeuvre. I had a shower and the water pressure was good but the walls were wet from humidity as extraction was a bit weak. The toilet was very close to the wall so was uncomfortable and you got a cold wet leg. Heating in room was good and you could turn it up or down as needed, but the bathroom was cold. Very close to restaurants and public transportation.

Breakfast was as advertised, continental one. The room was quiet and tidy. The staff was kind. For the services required, it was pretty good. I rested well and prepared for the following day. I recommend the place. If you travel from or to Gatwick apparently there is a bus nearby that goes from to the airport, or by taxi.

Great host. Clean and spacious room. Wish there was something to hang clothes/jackets. Quiet and safe neighborhood, could get really dark if walking at night. Walkable to pubs/ restaurants and grocery stores. Convenient bus stop direct to airport. Highly recommend Gainsborough Lodge.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was freezing when I got in despite answering your numerous emails about my arrival time. The room should have been warm. Then I thought I had figured it out and turned it on but while I was sleeping it was cold and I woke up shivering. I shouldn’t have to go to the front desk to ask how to put heat on! Since no one is even at the front desk unless I ring for them, it is quite a hassle for a tired guest. Leave instructions for the heat or better yet just put the heat on yourselves!

Was very clean and comfortable, in the main, nice host and ideally located. Tv wasnt working though and the room was a bit stuffy throughout the night. Would happily stay again though.

It was good value for money; staying one night before an early flight. The shower head needed some TLC in Viakal but it was ok.

Ideal location for Gatwick airport. Easy access after hours. Quiet area. Room suitable for one night stay. Could do with updating - toilet brush holder and towel rail rusty. Shower was low pressure and close to the wall so had to stand right at the taps and lean in to get wet, temperature was good tho. Despite this, would stay again for location and price.

My stay was great - the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Really convenient if you are planning on either going to Gatwick or returning from, with bus routes and taxis available nearby. Would stay again, thank you.

Overnight stay for early flight from Gatwick. Very convenient, booked parking, just needed a twin bedded room. Very satisfied with room for outflight, so booked for late return. Simple to get in after normal hours. Didn't need food just the room. More than adequate and the price was way below the national chains

Cheapest nearby hotel that is walkable (20mins) to Gatwick South Terminal - recommended for those on a tight budget. There is a footpath from South Terminal all the way to this hotel but it takes some navigating around car parks and train lines :)
