Firstly this hotel is great if you are travelling from Terminal 5, we however were travelling from terminal 1 which is a 30 min transfer via the Heathrow express away, terminals 2 and 3 would have taken a little longer however T4 would have taken considerably longer so consider this when booking. The room was well appointed with a comfy... More

Not the cheapest (~£95) but for sheer convenience if you need an overnight stopover with flights from T5 can not be beaten. Large room in excellent condition and one of the most comfortable beds I've had at a hotel. Only niggle - why do large group hotels in the UK insist on charging astronomical amounts for internet access. My recent... More

We stayed here before flying out to St Petersburg for a long weekend, booking a room and 4 nights valet car parking package. Arriving was very easy, just leave the car in a pull in right outside reception and the keys with reception. The car is then whisked away and parked for you. The hotel is modern and stylish and...

Location; for T5 this hotel is perfect, just a short stroll through a tubular gantry and down one level in a lift straight into the terminal where the landside shops includes a M&S Simply Food outlet, if returning remember to use the single dedicated hotel lift as the others go only to the multi storey car parks, there were confused...

Brand new hotel connected to wonderful Terminal 5. Quiet rooms, friendly service, ultra modern design. Will definitely come back. The rooms lighting is not at all difficult to operate, as some have mentioned in the reviews.

Stayed one night before ctaching an early flight from T5. Hotel is a shortish walk from the T5 and it is very clearly signposted. As soon as you walk into hotel itself you can feel you walked into 5* hotel. It is very clean, big, very well upkept. Check in formalities were quick but finding our room was a bit... More

My hiband and I need a hotel between flights and chose this one for it's location. It was really quiet, elegant and the rooms are sumptuous, even the twin one we booked. We also enjoyed a lovely peaceful dinner in the Bistro with excelent wine and food. The terminal is easily accessed by way of free shuttele train, just watch... More

The Sofitel is the official hotel of the newly built Terminal 5 at Heathrow. The hotel feels and looks brand new - it is pretty and clean, with nicely appointed rooms and nice modern amenities. However, if you're tired from traveling or in poor physical shape or health (and we're neither), I wouldn't recommend this hotel. Like many on here,... More

Since we were arriving at Heathrow Terminal 5 on our way from Paris to the English countryside, we stayed one night at this hotel. I'd read it was a quiet hotel despite being right next door to the airport. It's so very convenient (just steps away from the "Arrivals" area of Terminal 5). The rooms were clean, exceptionally quiet, and... More

Our previous stay in London was at a premium location for a premium price and the place still turned out to be a dump. This time when we found we would have a layover in London, we decided to try something different. As airline staff, we get great discounts at Accor hotels if availability is good and we book enough... More
