The hotel is okay for a night but the bed is uncomfortable and the decor a bit faded. The taxi transfer charge of £17.50 each way is very high too.

Lovely staff, clean room, not the comfiest bed but only in it for a few hours. Check in is slow as only one member of staff on reception every time ive stayed. Great music 😀

No complaints really about the hotel. Cheap and included parking fervour holiday. The only issue was that we booked including breakfast but as we had an early flight we couldn't have the breakfast (which we paid for). If we'd known this we could of saved the money and used it at the airport.

The car park was atrocious you needed Wellington boots to get through, it was chaotic with no organisation, people just dumped their cars anywhere. Hotel was OK but encountered very rude reception staff who refused to book our car in and threatened to fine using we left the car, fortunately FHR who were brilliant sorted this by contacting the hotel manager. Room smelled fusty and had cleaners knocking on our door before 9am. I would not use this hotel again.

The Europa is a Britannia Hotel, and like the others I've stayed in is a bit run down and unloved, but cheap. Parking is fine so it does offer a budget Hotel + Park option for Gatwick, although you need to factor in at least £35 return for taxi fares. I'd probably stay there again but not under any illusion that it'll be part of the holiday to look forward to

Arrived very late but was greeted with a smile (which was nice after a long day) 1st time I've had a room on the 1st floor, the room was the nicest I've stayed in at the hotel. I've stayed many times before. Clean, tidy, comfy bed and everything we needed for a nights stay after leaving the car while on holiday
