Very Good

Cheap & cheerful for what we needed. Easy to walk to from station & into town for food & drinks & easy to get to Airport.
Rooms outdated, thin walls. Lack of out of room facilities. Had lounge area but not in use. Bed uncomfotable. Managed for one night & all we needed it for a cheap price.
Very quiet are, close to train station with an easy access to Gatwick airport.

If you don't mind walking for 30 minutes to Gatwick then this property is a perfect overnight stop for a very reasonable price compared to the airport-based hotels.
The Guest House is mostly fine. It's well positioned for Gatwick Airport and it's a short walk to get some good food of an evening in Horley. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The downsides were that we stayed there on one of the hottest nights of the year and all we had was a wall-mounted fan to keep us cool. It wasn't at all effective and we hardly slept a wink. In addition, the shower could muster nothing more than lukewarm water at 9pm. However, it was only one night that we stayed and it hardly ruined the impending holiday. But we were exhausted the next morning...
Older building close to Horley train station. Older mattress and pillow. Small room off busy street. No A/C but mild climate today. No mini frig, but didn’t need it. Totally adequate for one-night stay near Gatwick airport. Staff helpful. Would stay again in this beautiful , safe neighborhood.

Room was lovely and big. Just make sure the heating is off in the summer please.
We needed a hotel to overnight before our flight out of Gatwick the next morning and this fit the bill perfectly. It was an eight minute walk from the train, but the staff informed us there was a bus to the airport only one minute away. The hotel is in a quiet residential area and the room was lovely and quiet. We didn't spend any time in the lobby areas, but it looked like it was quite large with tables and possibly opportunities to prepare meals.
