“Cute boutique hotel near Heathrow”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 23, 2013

Had to stay here when snow hit Heathrow. Very cute for the price. Staff was very accommodating. Food was very good too (they have a restaurant and bar). You could do a fixed price meal for 20 (2 courses) or 25 (3 courses) pounds.

Be careful getting to the hotel - the black cabs at Heathrow will charge an exorbitant amount to get your there (35 pounds). However gettting back is only a 12 pound taxi that you can actually charge to the hotel if need be.

“Good retaurant”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

Attended a charity fund raising dinner at the hotel's restaurant - very good. Juna & Karol were attentive and pleasant, the food was very good and the surroundings modern, clean and friendly. What a difference to the old hotel !! I shall be organising a few fund raisers myself in the next few months and look forward to some more good evenings. Bar prices were on the high side but understandable since the food was very well priced. Wine prices were OK with the meal though, 15 - 16 GB pounds a bottle, all the staff were friendly & attentive and made the evening a success. Very enjoyable.

“Lovely, just lovely.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

A late booking did not mean any laspe of quality. Price on par with Travelodge, but so much nicer and the delicious breakfast thrown in. Friendly, basic but clean Nice surroundings and friendly staff. Definately good value for money...and lovely fluffy towels. I would definately return.

“Room far too small”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 16, 2012

I stayed for 5 nights and had to find somewhere at short notice, I really just needed a good place to sleep but wanted to find something a little better than Premier Inn, the Stanwell seemed worth a try.
The hotel has a boutique style and presents itself well. Unfortunatelly the room was far too small. I booked a standard double but there was hardly room to move. It was really claustrophobic.There was no room to fit in a bedside table, the phone had to be propped on a shelf above the bed. It appeared that at one time there had been a larger bed in place as the lights were fixed in a position that could only just be reached from the bed. The room was in a roof space and the windows were two small skylight style windows in the sloping part of the roof. The bathroom was well equipped and the room was very clean. The bed was comfortable and breakfast was very good indeed but the size of the room spoiled my stay.
The good breakfast, presentation and cleanliness of the hotel make it worth 4 stars but doubt I will stay again after this visit, I just don't want to risk a similar room.

Dear Karen0101

Firstly, thank you for your recent review on Tripadvisor.
I was pleased to note that, on the whole, your experience at the hotel was enjoyable and pleasant. I also noted that the room you were allocated was too small for your requirements. We do have numerous bedrooms in in the hotel that vary in size. Our deluxe double rooms fall into this category, many of which are larger than others.

Should you wish to visit us again, please do feel free to conatct me directly and I will ensure that you are allocated a larger and more comfortable room.
Once again, thank you for your feedback.

Best regards,

Sheldon
