Stayed here for one night prior to connecting to a flight. Hotel is styled nicely, and it attached to the airport so you don't have to go outside - it's just a 5 minute walk from T5. Good comfortable rooms, nice bathroom, updated modern style. Two negative things: 1) the restaurant (cant remember the name...but not the French bistro one)... More

Stayed here for one night after flying back into London from Scotland before flying out early the next day for New York. Was not expecting to much from an airport hotel even if it was a Sofitel. Was pleasantly suprised. Check in was to be expected in an airport hotel in the early hours of the evening, chaotic and people... More

I have travelled in and out of Heathrow for 20 years and stayed at many of the Heathrow located hotels. The Sofitel is the newest hotel being attached to Terminal 5. The hotel is just so much better than anything else located around Heathrow. It is modern, very clean, has great facilities, walking distance to T5 etc The food is... More

Stayed there in July 2010 for one night. Since it's located right outside terminal 5, you cannot beat this location for an overnight stay or if you are doing business in the Heathrow/Hounslow area and need a nice hotel for a short stay. I had a connecting flight early the next morning so it made sense to stay there since... More

Stayed for one night prior to flying. Nothing was too much trouble. Staff were friendly and helpful. Bar and restaurant served great food and and drink request catered for in the bar. Rooms are comfortable, beds and linen exceed expectation. Only gripe very high charges for wireless internet. Should be included in a 5 star hotel.

We had a night in London in between flights both coming into and leaving from T5 at Heathrow. Had dinner plans in central London with family and took the Heathrow Express to/from Paddington Station. The hotel is connected to the terminal and you can walk there with your luggage cart from the arrivals hall at Heathrow Terminal 5. The same... More

For a transient hotel this is not what you would normally expect. The hotel is still relatively new so it is in quite a good state. however you can tell from the finishing that they have anticipated the transient nature of an airport hotel to make the place look newer for longer. Getting to the hotel from terminal 4 was... More

The real advantage of this hotel is that you can walk straight in to Terminal 5, so perfect for relaxing before or after your flight. The rooms are clean, spacious, comfortable and adequate. Food and service are all of very good quality. Beware of the car park charges, check these first before considering leaving your car there.

We stayed overnight at the Sofitel Heathrow on the basis of their Gatwick hotel which we have used a number of times and rate very highly. There are good points, we stayed in executive rooms which were comfortable well equipped and spacious. On the down side, check in unlike Gatwick was not well organised and as it got busy it... More
