Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport

Good stay. The location is perfect when traveling to or from Gatwick airport. A simple, short walk into the terminal from the train. The check in staff was friendly and helpful. There is access to several stores and resturants in the airport before the security check. You can also easily take a train or bus into London. The room was clean and although small it was comfortable. Free hot drinks and coffee were available on the floor. We'd recommend staying here if you have an early or late Gatwick flight.

The hotel is conveniently located in South Terminal of the airport. A compact "pod" type room, but slightly more spacious than some I've had elsewhere. Online check-in and app-based room key means you can go directly to your room without passing through reception. The room as compact but comfortable and was surprisingly quiet. We got a good night's sleep after the arrival of our late night flight.

We had an early morning flight so decided to get to Gatwick the previous day and stop at the Bloc hotel to get some decent sleep - it was a good decision! The room was not big (but then we did not need a big room for one night), it's quite sound proof (I was worried airport can be noisy). There is a shared room with a hot drinks machine, hot chocolate is actually nice! There are a few cafes and restaurants in the terminal that offer discounts if yo stay at Bloc. And it's perfect for morning flights, the hotel is in the terminal building so it's very close to the check-in area.

This is a super basic room but this hotel is great value for money and gets all the important things right. The important thinks are: proximity to airport (it is right in the terminal). It is modern, clean with a super comfy large bed (including duvet, not sheets) and there are some nice additional touches (free tea, coffee, hot chocolate via a machine on 7th floor, 20% discounts on a few places in terminal to get evening meal ). Great for early morning wake up prior to flight. Things to know: the room is ‘compact’ and the ‘wet room’ bathroom means the loo and shower are next to each other), but these are minor things to be aware of given the excellent price which was £50 cheaper than other options. I would stay here again. If all you need to do is lay your head prior to an early flight it’s ideal.

Loved the place, right outside departures in Gatwick Airport, close to all shops before security. It's perfect for what you need, a night to sleep before your flight, and that's what it did, TV , really comfy bed which is a good size! The wet room was a bit slippy but otherwise very modern and we really liked it.
