Lovely room even though a bit dated. Bar area was not really very comfortable and very in need of total upgrade. But it was a good experience. And value for money.

Hotel provided everything we wanted i.e. parking and a bed to allow us to get an early flight. Hotel was extremely busy when we stayed and finding a parking space was not easy. Also hotel is dated and in need of a refurb, but competitively priced and only a 1 night stay.

Competitive price for 15 days parking and an overnight stay. The car is kept on the hotel site but may be moved within the site as mine was. Whilst the hotel is fairly convenient for Gatwick it is looking very tired and is in need of refurbishment, although for one night acceptable. Transfer was by shuttle bus to the airport (£5 per person) but on return a taxi had to be taken at a cost of £13.50.

Stayed here before and always good but this time....! There was an event on all weekend for boxing. Carpark was full, nowhere to park our car although we had booked and paid for a space for a week. We were directed to a muddy field and told to leave it there and someone would get around to moving it on the Monday! Obviously no security or cameras there, so what happens if my car was hit???! No one in charge to take responsibility, although the receptionist phoned & spoke to a person. Felt sorry for her as she was left to deal with our complaint & we were not alone! Restaurant had limited hours and the side bar had no room! Do not accept bookings if you are unable to complete you side of the contract. We have had some recompense but it should not have happened in the first place

We realised this hotel would not be luxurious and we have stayed here before . All that being said it is exceptionally good .value . The only big issue we had was how hard the bed was so neither myself or my husband slept at all well the night before our flight . Every other aspect of the hotel is perfectly adequate and the staff are kind but we probably would not stay here again in order to have a good sleep before a long haul flight .

We have used this hotel on many occasions prior to going on holiday. The hotel rooms are slightly dated, but adequate for an overnight stay.We will use it again as the price is very good, plus I like to leave my car at the hotel, not drive miles away to park it at another car park.We always use United Taxi's on our return, they are professional,on time and it's fair price of £13.50. I would recommend this hotel.

The room was pleasant enough but quite noisy. We didnât realise there is a £5 charge per person for the coach drop, or that a taxi costing £13.50 was needed for the return from the airport. We decided to get a taxi to the airport because the transfer bus only runs once an hour. Unfortunately the receptionist booked it for 7:30 instead of 6:30 as requested. This made a really stressful start to the day.

we have stayed at the hotel many times and it always has been a good experience. we booked hotel and parking for the night of the 4th October 2018, at approx 1am our neighbours in the next room, arrived from the bar in the hotel and continued to party and make a considerable noise, we let it ride until 1.30am and asked them to keep the noise down, we were given verbal abuse. Called Reception and the night manager spoke to the guests and was also given verbal abuse, we could hear the conversation. After she left the noise continued and again we asked them to keep the noise down. we called reception again and male reception staff called and they refused to open the door, he left and called back around 10 - 20 minutes later and they opened the door, when advised he would call the police. He was also given verbal abuse and left. The noise continued for another 3/4 hour and then went silent. We complained in the morning to the night manager and she indicated they had problems at the bar with the same party and had to speak to them on a couple of occasions. Night manager apologised and i advised i would be complaining. My car was should a fault and asked the hotel not to move the car, the night manager and the reception agreed this and we put this on the paperwork. My car was moved by the manager and gave the excuse it could have been damaged by guests attending functions. Not very happy and expressed my dissatisfaction, especially if they had caused the vehicle damage. The manager advised he would refund my booking fee i paid for the stay and parking This was a bad experience from a hotel we like to stay, as the price and location is good

Booked this hotel with friends prior to holiday flight from Gatwick During the booking process all the internet pages appeared to indicate that we were booking the Copthorne in Copthorne village complete with village pub etc We thought this would be a great start to the holiday! Only on arrival did we find out that we were in the Copthorne at Effingham park a few miles up the road. Really disappointed! The hotel was adequate and lots of parking. Transfers to and from Gatwick ok and timely although charged for them. Overall experience ok but was hoping for much better!

The hotel staff are excellent in their attention to your wants and needs, they are very courteous towards their guests be it in the reception, restaurant, or bar, and the food is of excellent quality. The rooms are comfortable and spacious and very clean, and all amenities are provided i,e tea, coffee and such like, The hotel offer long stay parking during your holiday away, this is the third time I have stay at this particular hotel and I have never had a issue with the security of my car it's always in the same place that I left it and without damage. The only thing I can say that detracts from the quality of the hotel is the décor I think it's a little bit dated now, and a touch up here and there would not go amiss, as this hotel is also a golfing and multi function venue it is very popular so I would recommend early booking in the season. As my wife and I are already planning for next year we are looking forward to staying here again so I will be booking around about February/ March time.
