My partner had a conference for 3 days near Heathrow and this hotel looked like a good location and was reasonably priced. Even with a good sat nav, its quite hard to locate as the one way road system approaching from Phoenix Way leads you in a spiral before you finally get into the Travelodge car park!
On the plus side:
- Services next door include a 24 hour Costa coffee with free Wi Fi
- parking is free once you give your reg number to reception
- our room was quite large, with a queen size bed and a long sofa bed, desk / chair, tv and plenty of room for suitcases
- our room was quiet
- the shower was very hot and very strong
- tea and coffee making facilities provided
On the not so plus side:
- getting in and out of the car park without taking the M4 was a bit of an ordeal! the road system is chaotic and not clearly signposted
- hotel wifi is expensive and occasionally dropped off. also, would only allow one device to be signed in at once even with a week long voucher
- although clean, the decor is dated and the hallways pretty grotty
- apart from the Queens Head pub (10 min walk up cranford lane), there is very little around to cater for meals apart from some greasy looking takeaway joints
- coming and going on foot was a bit of a nightmare due to all the confused drivers trying to find the travelodge car park! The 111 bus to Kingston or Hounslow goes along cranford lane (5 min walk) frequently and is an excellent way to escape if your partner has your car! Kingston is a joy and although Hounslow isn't, it has the picadilly line tube so is convenient for getting into london.

We had to pick our daughter up from Heathrow at 5.00am so decided to travel down from the Midlands the night before, get a good nights sleep, get up early nice and refreshed to welcome our daughter home and drive back. I picked this hotel because it was close to Terminal 4 but what a mistake. To start with it was very difficult to find-my Sat Nav couldn`t find it! Secondly it was the worse Travelodge I have ever stayed in-very shabby. The room we stayed in had a chipped bath but we were not too bothered with that as we were only staying the night. The bed had two wafer thin pillows but the travelodge blurb says more are available from reception. When we enquired, however, we were told they only had one left! We had people running up and down the corridor, shouting and generally making a noise until midnight. A good nights sleep? No chance! I wish we had just got up early and driven down in the morning. I have E mailed travelodge through their complaints procedure but 9 days later I still havent had a reply even though they state they will try to reply in 4 days. How much longer will this company last??

Because of the snow we spent a night at this Travelodge. My sister and husband had an early flight from Heathrow and as the forecast was bad we decided to spend the night near the airport. We booked two rooms in the morning and arrived about 4.30pm. We had come off the M25 and it wasn't easy to find. We firstly stopped at the Eastbound Travelodge but was redirected - luckily with a comprehensive map - to the Westbound one. The rooms were warm and very clean. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of hot water.The staff were extremely helpful and though we were near the airport we weren't disturbed by the planes or the traffic on the nearby M4. For £32 per room it was an excellent bargain and exceeded our expectations! The only downside was the selection of places to eat at the Moto Services. We didn't enjoy our burgers from Burger KIng!!!
Thank you

Having read previous reviews I was fearing the worse...but the two rooms I booked were fine they were clean & warm with a flat screen TV in one. The Staff were pleasant and helpful.
It was easy to find( I used a map rather than a sat nav)
I used the Travelodge paid £42 for 2 rooms and parked my car at the NCP Flightpath which cost less than half the park and stay offers at the bigger hotels plus I didnt need to pay another £32 for Hoppa Bus tickets.
I would use this hotel again for a pre-flight stay
