Gatwick Airport is primarily a transit hub in West Sussex, and most visitors are here because they are catching a flight rather than choosing it as a destination. The accommodation available reflects this: a cluster of hotels designed for early starts and layovers, positioned to be quick to reach from the terminals. Premier Inn operates two properties at the airport, both rated around 4.3, and there is also the Sofitel London Gatwick, rated 4.4 from over 5,400 reviews, which offers upmarket comfort if you need a longer stay before departure. The Hilton and Bloc Hotel are similarly positioned for convenience.
If you do find yourself with time to spend in the area around the airport, the immediate surroundings in West Sussex offer the kind of facilities you would expect near a major transport interchange. Most people who stay here are doing so as a practical necessity—perhaps catching an early flight, or with a connection to manage—rather than treating it as a base for exploring the region.
