Ramada by Wyndham Crawley Gatwick

I don't know who's fault this is BUT when we arrived we were instantly turned away and told that they have been booked out for over 7 months due to refugees (and oddly enough at midnight it sounded like they were having a rave in a back room). Though the staff was friendly they stated they couldn't help us with the room we reserved (through Priceline) less then a month ago. The only option they gave us was to call Priceline but when we did the number they had on file didn't work

Good bits:Friendly nonsense staff. Rooms were alright - big, clean with a nice desk. The main areas of the hotel had character". The view is hit or miss depending on the room. Pretty close to the airport. The area seems like it'd be nice in the summer.Not so good bits:You can hear a bit of noise from the street

Family of four.Booked a room for overnight, for early flight next day.Having read many negative reviews about this hotel, we were dreading it, being the start of our holiday. However, staff were perfectly fine, giving info on hotel, and local area. Room was perfect for the few hours we were there. Plenty of food places nearby. Easy place to be, easy parking, beds comfortable, room clean, and, because we were leaving really early, checkout was no problem. We were told, just leave whenever you want, leave the key in the room.It worked perfectly, and I would happily go back to this place.

Booked to come here with 7 others in September when we take part in tough mudder and was paying £65 per room. I guess they realized there was an event because they cancelled our booking then when I searched again doubled the price! Also ignored my email when I asked why. Completely out of order.

I have spent a few nights here, and on the whole, I was pleased. Both rooms I have stayed in were large and clean, with comfortable beds. The parking was adequate, and the service was friendly. Unfortunately the showers, which are a fixed head on the wall, over the bathtub, were awful. The water pressure was extremely weak and the temperature was incredibly difficult to regulate - two pretty vital things if you want to take a shower! Also, because the head of the shower is fixed to the wall, you have no control on the direction of water or its point of origin. It is for this reason that I have only left 4 stars.The location is good if you need the airport, as it is approximately a 10min drive away. It is also a short walk from Crawley town centre, so there are lots of shops available in the day time. However, at night it feels a little like a ghost town, with some places closing surprisingly early.The biggest plus, for me, is that they have some rooms that still allow smoking. Although there is no law against this, most hotels seem to have completely done away with smoking in their roooms, and I shouldn't be surprised if it has reduced their profits. It doesn't make sense not to keep a few specific rooms that can be booked by smokers. Happily the Ramada Inn does exactly that!

We found it disappointing that the hotel front, which is lovely,is not actually where we stayed. We were led through the Tudor frontage to a rather sad looking apartment block which really needs updating. The room was fairly comfortable but the cleaning standard was not good. The walls in the room were marked with something which resembled shaving foam and the view was of a carpark which was very littered. We could not find where to get breakfast, even though it was advertised. It seemed that the kitchen was shut and we could find no one to ask. When we checked in I must say the receptionist was very nice and helpful.

Easy to reach, quiet comfortable room, easy to park. For a pre-flight bed you don't need any more. In addition to the hotel grill and restaurant there's a range of alternatives in easy walking distance.Purple Parking managed to book the room for the wrong month but wasn't a problem. Although the unbooked room we were given was sold to someone else later- much to their surprise. It surprised us too when the other guest let themselves in.I'd be happy to stay again but not in an unbooked room.

Great Hotel in central Crawley next lots of history to this Hotel if your in town for a Wedding or meeting.

Stayed here quite a few times and it’s always a nice quaint hotel. Nice staff and nice rooms! Some of the buildings are out dated with outdated rooms but they’re not disappointing. Considering it’s central and always have reservations with clean large rooms it’s impressive.

Very friendly reception, comfy beds, good sleep before early flight. There is a lot of parking available and it is free. Didn't try breakfast. Rooms had a bit of mouldy smell, but nothing too major and room was very clean. Very close to town centre as well.
