Just a proper fit for a momentary pause in Luton with very good value for money. The room was spacious, perfect for a family. Keep an eye out for the parking area which can feel a bit sketchy at night.

The experience was great, especially enjoying the breakfast that was surprisingly tasty and the clean, cozy room that made me feel right at home. I loved being able to unwind in the lounge area after a long day, which really helped me relax. It was a bit tricky to find the entrance initially, but overall, the stay was enjoyable! 😊

Comfortable stay with friendly staff
I had a great night here, with a clean and comfortable double room that made my stay relaxed. The staff were incredibly welcoming, and I appreciated the unlimited hot drinks available in the lobby. The breakfast provided a nice selection, although I wished the pastries were replenished more quickly.

Friendly staff, good location!
Staying here was a mixed bag. The staff were super friendly, giving great recs for dinner after a long trip. But finding the car park was a pain, especially after dark. hearing strange knocks on the door at night was freaky—definitely not cool. Breakfast was alright though, it did the job!

I was in town for a quick transit stay, and the experience was quite decent. The breakfast was really good, with plenty of options to choose from, which made for a great start to my day. I also appreciated the cleanliness of my room, which was comforting after a long journey. the area was a bit noisy at night, which made it hard for me to sleep.

We stayed with 20 family members and had a wonderful time exploring the nearby ZSL Whipsnade Zoo. The spacious family rooms were clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was fantastic with a great variety that catered to our requests.
My kids wished for more soundproofing as they were disturbed by noise from the adjacent rooms.

Perfect stopover for early flights!
Great place for a quick stay before a 4am flight! Loved the free coffee, but wow, super strong even when I had the latte. The breakfast was just okay. a bit more variety would be nice, especially for vegetarians. Still, I’d go back for the clean room and close location to Weatherspoons for dinner.
