"Lovely breakfast and great staff. Hotel and room generally felt a bit worn down as did the area but fine for a flying visit or somewhere to lay your head."

Novotel London Stansted Airport

Novotel London Stansted Airport

10/10 Excellent
"I have been staying at this hotel now for the past two years or so and it is stunning. The rooms are spotless with large wide screen tv’s. The only negative is the price of food and drink in the bar and restaurant. I paid £11 for a glass of wine there though staff are attentative. The cost for a room for the night if booked online is under £100 which is good value. I will be staying here again no doubt at all."
