Why The Ibis Gatwick Is One Of The Best Budget Stop-over Hotels

The Ibis Gatwick is a budget hotel just 5 minutes from Gatwick Airport.

Being a 2-Star hotel, there is little in the way of facilities at the Ibis Gatwick, but what it lacks in modern amenities it more than makes up for in convenience and value…

The Convenience Of Ibis Gatwick

Not only is the Ibis Gatwick only 5 minutes away from the airport, but the hotel provides a number of 24-hour services.

The MOST useful of these conveniences is the transfer service – a shuttle bus that runs to and from Gatwick Airport at regular intervals around the clock.

Breakfast is also served from 4am, so if you have an early start in the morning, the Ibis Gatwick is able to help you rest easy in the knowledge that everything has been taken care of.

The Ibis Gatwick even provides a 24-hour room service to accommodate guests who need to change their eating patterns to fit in with their holiday schedule.

The Ibis Gatwick is conveniently situated between Crawley and Gatwick Airport

Food At The Ibis Gatwick

The Ibis Gatwick Cafe serves a RANGE of affordable meals and an all-you-can-eat buffet continental breakfast.

The dishes include international classics such as chicken korma and a selection of pasta and pizza combinations. The food is certainly not top restaurant quality, but nor is it just microwaved slop.

If you need something to eat and don’t fancy heading into Crawley or to the traditional pub opposite, then it is quite adequate and reasonably priced.

The cafe serves from its menu 24-hours a day through room service, so you will never be stuck with nothing to eat.

There is also an onsite bar at the Ibis Gatwick, which serves a limited but respectable range of alcoholic and soft drinks.
