B&B HOTEL London Heathrow

This is the perfect hotel by the airport. The bunk beds in the family room were perfect for us. The hotel is exactly what is needed for a night by the airport. Also there is a bus stop right outside the hotel with a bus directly to Heathrow.

Very convenient Hoppa bus to and from Terminal 5. Friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast. Wifi was a bit off and on in the room. Bathroom and carpets could have done with a deep clean.

I never bother to write reviews, but honestly, I am not sure how some people can rate the property 5 stars. It’s a very basic hotel on par with a Best Western in the States. Our room was dated and dark. The carpet was old. The glass shower door is one that only goes halfway so if you’re shaving your legs, water goes everywhere. Breakfast was £15 for adults and £5 for kids which was fine, but I didn’t realize that there was a little cafe right around the corner that we should have tried. My daughter got a Caesar salad one night from the hotel kitchen and it was just okay. Okay the next parts were totally on me: make sure that you bring adapters that don’t just have the two prongs, buy the ones with 3 prongs. I plugged my curling iron into the 2 prong one in the bathroom and it wouldn’t get hot. The label did say that the outlet was “only for shavers,” so maybe you can’t use hot tools in there? I was super annoyed one night because I didn’t think there was hot water left, but you have to hold the little clicker thing down on the shower knob to get it really hot, which is actually a good idea. Also, I thought that I was getting a good deal by not staying in London itself, but by the time I add in the Ubers to and from ($90 one way), we might as well have paid for a more expensive hotel in London. Trains and buses would have been much more affordable, but honestly, I was worried to take them. The staff was so nice and helpful and patient with this clueless American, though.

Ideal hotel for airport. Lovely clean room, friendly staff and parking available at the hotel. Bus stop right outside the front door to take you straight to Heathrow airport terminal 5 for less than £2 per person so saved us a fortune! Didn’t use the restaurant facilities but the bar was well stocked. Lovely family run Italian restaurant just across the road which was recommended for dinner and it did not disappoint.

This hotel definitely fit our needs in the sense that it was a close shuttle ride to the airport. We arrived at about 8p.m. and there were only two staff members there to help. One was in the kitchen making food and the other was at the bar serving customers and also supposed to be checking staff in. They did have a self check-in but we couldn't get it to work so had to wait to be checked in. After we arrived in our room which was located on the first floor-I looked out of the curtains and there was a homeless encampment literally right outside of our window. This was a surprise and made me uncomfortable. Bathroom wasn't as clean as I would expect. Room walls were very thin-it sounded like the people in the room next to us were about to break through our wall. It served the purpose that we needed but it wasn't the greatest.
