Personal opinion all rooms should have a minimum of a kettle in rooms , this hotel had free coffee machine in the reception but neither was working during our visit, this is the only negative.

This was perfect for us in a family room (3 adults), central to shops but 10 mins from Luton Vale crematorium. Parking is limited be we got a space so was happy with that. Nice breakfast too.

Lovely staff. Comfy bed. Breakfast was terrible. It was cold, and I’ve no idea what the eggs and sausage was made of.

We stayed at this hotel two night, both before and after flights. Excellent value for money as hotel is very reasonably priced. Area is a little sketchy but there's little the hotel can do about that. Parking is limited but plenty around it. Good breakfast with veggie options. Generally a very good stay for an excellent price.

Does what it says on the tin, clean and tidy accommodation with a comfortable bed - close to Luton airport which is convenient. 24hr check in is also useful, we arrived at midnight and left at 5am.
