Top Colchester Hotel Reviews

Novotel London Stansted Airport

Novotel London Stansted Airport

8/10 Good
"Staff were all excellent and worked incredibly hard and made this stay enjoyable and stress free. The room was clean, spacious & well equipped. The quality of food in the restaurant was disappointing for price paid (e.g Crispy chicken burger - £20). Breakfast selection was good, but quality mixed (e.g hot items good but pastries were dry/very small). The airport shuttle was well organised & ran on time."
