Top Colchester Hotel Reviews

Novotel London Stansted Airport

Novotel London Stansted Airport

8/10 Good
"Adequate for our 10 day visit. Mainly selected since they had AC during hot summer. Room was small. No king size beds so wife and I chose twin beds. Annoyingly charged for parking and required giving vehicle registration (plate number) to desk clerk every time we exited the property so gate would open."

10/10 Excellent
"Very clean and very helpful and hard working staff. I believe it is the owner that takes care of a lot of things and is very helpful. Parking is free and plentiful, just make sure to ask on how much time you should add for your stay."
